You need to understand what LST it before you make such a comment to new growers. Low Stress Training=LST .......topping right after you LST is defeating the purpose.
Not saying its not possible but, one of the points to LST is to keep your tops.
Hi Art, makes sense. I don't see the point. That's what I'm hoping for, a lot of juicy nodes.
I'm at about day 40, using Fox Farms Ocean Feed, and I just watered after 6-7 days (20% runoff, to get the girls digging for water). My PH is in the 5.5 range. I've read it's best not to feed when using FFOF, but I'm thinking of adding 1tbsp Blood Meal in a couple of days, nothing else. I could also add about 1/4 tbsp bat guano with nitrogen, but boy, that do stink. Well as they say, no pain, no gain...haha.
Any thoughts? I plan to go strictly organic, so I understand your input is based only on what you've learned through the mill, Art.
