This is the same Afghan Kush with LST

That's awesome man thank you for that info your plants are looking good! so I low stress train the main stem slightly bend her down with some twist ties ? That way the lower branches can grow that's covered by the big fan leaves ? What if I cut the fan leaves that are covering those new branches trying to get light ?

I don't cut fan leaves off they are your armor and food source without them you can't grow. You can do a trim job to defoliate but that comes later. Like 2 weeks before flower or 2 weeks after flower starts to lollipop her to focus on main bud sites. Don't worry you are in the right place. You'll get pro help here non stop

So my good friend said he is giving me his Sun System 150 w grow light now I know it ain't that big of a light for the 6 plants I'm growing so I also have my 2 led Grow panels each 120 watts I was thinking of using all 3 lights together. Do you think I can grow 6 plants under with HPS in middle and left and right side my leds

It's LSTraining Day today I'll post pics once I'm done. Cheers all!

I'm back the LST was completed today I poked little holes around my fabric pots then I threaded wire around in and out of the pots rim so that way I can train the plants now I have bended as much as I could and have tried to make sure all the tops are visible to the lights.

Good luck and great job. When you tie her down don't force only pull enough so lateral branches get exposure and so she can grow that way.i always top her when I LST also to get more branches everywhere

I'm at day 32 and I'm about the same size plants. i under fed due to the fact I'm going 4 autos. they're starting to bounce back but are already budding. if i get a decent amount of smoke ill be happy! got 2 n.l autos , i n.l blue auto and 1 early w.w auto. good luck with your 1st grow dude! looking' good!

I purchased these cheap Led Safety glasses for 18 bucks off of Amazon I know there's nicer looking glasses out there on the market but I don't really care for the style or looks I'm only looking at my plants not going out on a date with them on lol

These glasses work!

Wouldn't any polarized sunglasses

Wouldn't any polarized sunglasses

Blurple LEDs (red n blue) require green glasses. Otherwise after looking/working in their light makes all household lights look green. The blue light is generally more concerning and does damage your eyes if unprotected. Peace!!!

I decided to hit up the hydro shop for a 8L water pump sprayer and this thing works wonders for feeding hard to reach spots also the water is sprayed evenly throughout my soil. I absolutely highly recommend purchasing one of these if you don't have one already.

Before I bought this sprayer, come time to feed my plants there would be Water everywhere causing a great wet frustrating mess. Not anymore when Using this thing it really makes my plants happy lol.

Cheers!

That is proper watering bc instead of a big stream its like rain water hitting the soil and doesnt aggravate and move plants

Has anyone ever heard of stem splitting or Has anyone used that method 2 to 3 weeks before harvesting? Does this method actually help create more trichomes and increase potency?

By Stabbing a sharp blade right through the main stalk to open it then slip Popsicle sticks through the split stem and leave them in the stem. There are so many tricks and ways this method I am skeptic about.
