The first grow did I "FIM"ed one of my autos just above the fourth node by mistake_ the day after that I read you shouldn't do that. It was a 60 day strain and the FIM was done about the middle of the third week followed that using only LST. No problems at all and it finished in 65 days. This last grow I used LST only and didn't get as many large colas. Next time I'm gonna fIM them all about the fourth node and then LST. I have to agree with Nebula (I think she commented on this) that when an lan is topped or FIMed once its produced a 5th node then you'll have a more symmetrical base to work your LST from. Or maybe I just need more experience using LST.
Here are my girls from my last update. They seam happy. Buds all over the place. I removed most of the hooks. I raised the light a bit. Trying to get them to stretch some to make room for buds. I will veg them for another 1-2 weeks, that will be about the time my flowering plants are done. Then they go to 12/12.
P.S. The last 2 pics are 2 weeks behind the rest.
About time for a update. The 3 in the tent are now 4 days in 12/12. The others are the two which are still sipping slowly. But there are thriving. Therefor I'm not changing anything. "Onward through the fog".
On a side note. The pic with the 2 plants. The one on the left was topped once and LSTd and the one on the right just LST.
