@The_Chef I’m super excited to start LST! Hopefully these will work just fine for the training? We will see! They will be here tomorrow! ![Screenshot_20220513-124756](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/growingmarijuana/original/4X/2/0/8/2084d97e587a30ad393a7ead3603d2be9cdbb806.jpeg) ---

Perfect stuff to use. I just happened to have some utility wire laying around 😂 ---

Yep, that stuff works great…picked up a roll at Dollarama last week for $1.40 after tax! After you top them, either dip the top cut in Rootz, Clonex, or some rooting compound (or just pop them in a jar of water!) and clone them! If they take, great! If not, nothing lost, but you’ll learn something! ---

@Spudgunner I’ve been reading about cloning too! Excited to give it a try! Although I don’t have any rooting compound stuff, but will definitely look into it! ---

@Tdevine I’ve probably got a dozen trying to root out now from my 2 plants. The tops I did dip in rooting compound then into a moist 4" pot of Promix. Then when I supercrop/lst the rest, I see spindly little branches that I don’t think will support a big bud, so I sacrifice those and just drop them in a jar of water. ![20220510_104555](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/growingmarijuana/original/4X/4/f/d/4fd99c37e3421caeb7dc3c3136b66c1aa79ce2a3.jpeg) ![20220510_104617](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/growingmarijuana/original/4X/b/c/6/bc6b49cd8c5b31687822ea4c42d2d616e8a98e40.jpeg) If they root, I’m probably gonna be screwed! I’m flipping the mom’s this Sunday, so the tent will be on 12/12 for the next 3 months! These are ok for another 3 weeks under the dome, so hoping early June the weather will be better here and I can put them outside. But I can’t just trim and chuck! Gotta give them a chance, even if I can’t use them, I can gift them to folks for “future considerations”. ---

Oh yeah, you don’t need to dome them, I just bought one this spring to start some seeds so figured I’d use it for clones too. Last time I took clones, they sat in the jars on my office desk behind my monitor in the corner near the window. ---

Rooting compound is over rated IMO. I just cut them and stuff them in dirt. Everyone I’ve ever started this way rooted. Some do take longer than others.

I top n train almost all my plants. I clone the bottom branches that r usually sacrificed anyway. Rarely do I ever get to clone the top cola, they just ain’t big enough yet, n usually die. I also use the coated wire for LST, along with some cheap plastic branch benders. ![image](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/growingmarijuana/original/4X/1/d/e/1de1e88d9a13a8de722890c0b56cf63652cddd9e.jpeg) ---
