Well done!

Now from here out, the idea is to gradually keep stretching her sideways in all directions. And tie a lasso to some of those larger offshoots coming off the main stem. Pull them gently away from the direction you pulled the main shoot.

You’ve got this!!

Can you circle them for me? @VirginiaGrowBoy in this picture just so I make sure I’m right?

Should do it the way you thibk you heard it. Really no wrong answers here. The idea is simple my friend. The tallest top gets all the growth hormones. Your job, keep them all at the same level or as close as possible.

Here are three I see that I marked.

I see thank you. For some reason I thought you meant larger leaves! I’ll give it a go and send more pics tonight.

Just gradually. You might need to poke an extra hole or two in your bag.

And the new shoots you pull way out with have inter-nodes that sprout out giving more colas that can fill out the center of the plant.

Good luck!

Here are a few examples of some LSTing I did in our garden a few weeks ago.
Keep up the great work!

You will likely have to re-tie and adjust everything every day or two. Can still use the leaf tuck also. I was serious about cutting that center finger out of some of the fans to keep them from covering tops, obviously you cant do em all that way but selectively it works great! The more arrows in your quiver so to speak.
