I still must rain in the hight of these sativa's some how SO here is what I am thinking

2 plants grown normaly

2 plants grown with the LST method

I just need to see just how much space these plants will take when in bloom becuse next time it will be nine of them

I hear ya man. It is daring. I think I will have to try someday. His results just blew me away.
Sativa's, I would LST em all. They are gonna jump. Plan sounds reasonable though.

you know what I am thinking is i will do three trained and keep one normal so i can see what i am up against.

there hights are one at 10 inch two at 12 inch and the biggy at 14 inches.The 14 inch one and the two 12 inch one's will be trained to grow multipul colas useing the LST method.With the ten inch one left to grow natruly(unless she gets to tall)

S.A.G.E. week 2 under way
Only a week difrance but thay are starting to fill out .Some of them are showing new growth where the branche's will form.One runt(top left conner)dose not look as good as the rest.It has one oe two brown spots on the leaf's.Will post a pic of it later.Have everything for trans planting next week

[Dain Bramage]

To late to start LST training but want to practic for next grow.This one is "WILLMA"


This one is the tallest and the most i need of training,she is "GINGER"


Hoping to get 4 cutting's from each plant,This girl is "MARRYANN"


This is the only one i did not try to train very tight noad spacing we call her "BETTY"

SATIVA AFGANNI GENETIC EQUILIBRIUM; now say that 5 times!!
I shall commence observation of Operation S.A.G.E - best of luck in your endeavors!

With 11 weeks of flowering ahead of me some sort of training will be needed.Prunning or toping the plant's inside is not somthing i like to do and supper cropping is said to add 4 weeks to the veg. cycle.After reading i decided LST(LOW STRESS TRAINING)would serve me best.For these plant's i started to late but I will still try to gently coax them along.

Last night these four plants were put into flowering.I don't like doing this with out an established cutting from each,but I can not let them get to leggy and out grow there space.Over the next two weeks i hope to take 3 to 4 cutting's from each

welcome fpgp nice glass that are just for tob@co right...lol...

[The Butcher]

your ladies are getting big..Cant wait to see how the flowers turn out..And those babies in tose cups have a nice healthy look..

[Dain Bramage]

Thanx Butcher,should have looked more into training them befor thay got as big as thay are.The next group will benifit from this grow.

Going to keep seedling's under the t-5 lights longer this grow.I like the way that are filling in.Each one will under go LST training to keep the vertical growth in check.As thay reach a hight of 12 inches each one will be put into the budding chamber.

[rc51sport]

your plants are looking very good, the older ones are nice and branchy, love it. the lil guys are looking good too and cant wait to see what it all looks like budded up, gonna have some fine meds in a few months bud.
i must say when i first bought a bag of SAGE i wasnt all to impressed but after a few days of smoking on it it had quickly become my favorite bag.


nice job dain, looking good!

[newsisnoise]

hey man, beautiful plants.

go grow, go! lol.

[OldSkoool]

I don't think you'd be too late for LST IMHO, you just have to be careful, and use small incremental adjustments. The rim lip on your pots makes for an ideal attachment for using pipe cleaner ties like I used. Just a thought. I've been able to train plants that were similar in size including my current grow.

Forgive me for posting photos on your journal, but I thought this example would illustrate my point, and show what can be accomplished in one week of LST.

From this...


To this in 7 days


Hope this helps.

Oldskoool(ain't no skool like old skoool)thax a lot man and ANYONE WHO WANT TO POST PIC'S HERE PLEASE FELL FREEthis ain't my thread it's our thred.OK have started LST training three of them GINGER,MARRYANN,AND WILLMA I am using epoxy coated tie wire very good stuff(we use it at work to tie rebar/steal together in concreat work,I use so much stuff that i get from work...lol...)I cant let thse girls get any taller than 5 ft.That is why the next ones will be flowerd at a smaler hights of 12 inch's,with LST training.Also if you want check out a thred in seed'd clones and strains i started called HOW MUCH$...SELF PRAMOTION HOW UGLY...

has anyone herd of cold air dumping.As i understand it that if you keep the night/dark time temps warmer then when you are running the lights,this wil shorten node lenght with out stressing plant's.I plane to do this by running my lights at night when i sleep and the heat is kept lower.then two hours befor the lights come on pump in cool air from attic and for the first two hours of of light keeping the temp between70-72 degrees and up to 76 after the cool air dumping is done.Doring the dark period temp should about 79-80 degrees...ok peace
