Trying my hand at some LST

Trying my hand. A low stress training. Plants about three and a half weeks in White Widow. Would you let it go another week?

Id let it go for a bit. When the buds get dense and full they become quite heavy. I vegged for 8 weeks after topping and continued LST well into flower. Worth the wait.

Just to confirm these are WW photos?
You have already bent the main stem over and tied down lower branches?
How many nodes tall are they?
It looks like you have a couple rockets on your hands. Large for 3 1/2 weeks.
Is that coco? What size bags?

I wouldn’t do that now. Generally you top it after it has 5 or 6 nodes grown out and you top it above third node. If you do it now you can reduce your yields by shocking the pla t during flowering. Best done while vegging. Just keep tying them down and adjusting them as needed up until around week 3 or 4 of flowering it should stop stretching by then.

Continue lst up until the flowering stretch stops, around week 3 of flower. I just did a ww grow in 5 gallon fabric pots. The lst gave me a nice bunch of tops. 9.something ozs dried off four plants. Just keep on it and it will reward you.
