LOL! I was gonna do a smoke report on my Blueberry auto last night and I got so fucked up I forgot, and then fell asleep. She is VERY plain looking but she got a dangerous side.She's some real "plain" looking weed, but she sure kicks my ass..
I would have tried another store. But you do you!I wanted an orange one, but all they had was hot pink
Thank You, VG! So far, so green! and our little DDa is looking sweet!Lookin' fabulous

Thank You, Boo- She really is a beautiful plant! The So-Cal seed fairy knows how to pick 'em!Looking goooood Carcass! That GSC is just gorgeous.
Ha! Pink looked pretty good in the store, so I just went with it.I would have tried another store. But you do you!
Well, depends on the costume, I suppose. Pretty pink ballerina might be nice.Ha! Pink looked pretty good in the store, so I just went with it.
So much for a "Halloween" theme though
Omg I think this might be your best yet! Thank you for your time and explanation.In case you missed the weekly plants update, it's here ...
And now it's time for training Update #5
This stuff was done on Saturday, a few days after we did a little defoliation to open things up a bit.
The little branches were 2 or 3 inches long when I did this.
Pull the little branches down just enough to make the top of the plant fairly flat when you look at it from the side. You want to end up with the main branches, and the little (secondary) branches all at apx. the same height- and then we try and keep things that way from now on...
This is what you should see after adjusting all the little branches- a reasonably flat canopy
There's not much more to say on that!
There will be more little branches popping up, and you just adjust them to keep things level as they show up. I'm up to 22 hooks so far, probably need twice that before we're done...
This gets a little more intense as things progress, but for right now, we just want to get a good start on a flat canopy, and doing this should help accomplish that!
Thanks for looking!
If you have questions, or if I left anything out that you need to know, don't be afraid to ask!
And now, the quotes:

The branches growing out of the main stalk are what I call primary branches, and the branches growing out of those are what I call secondary branches...that may not be what they're "officially" called, but that's what I call 'emQ1 what is a secondary branch?
Apx.= Approximately...Q2 what is an apx? I even googled and nothing
It looks like mine would look if mine were taller- we're both working with the same stuff, yours is just stretched out a little- Cleo's gonna look great once the secondary branches grow in some more...in fact, she's looking damn good right now...Why doesn’t my plant look ANYTHING like yours
So just another quick question. Because my structure is wrong, should I be allowing those lower branches to rise to the height of the top branches. I have them carhooked atm.Good morning, and you're welcome, T!

Omg I’m so cringe! I never would have got that! Lol! I went apex, then couldn’t work out if there was a top, then literally invented words in my head like apix apixal apxil. LollllllApx.= Approximately...

ME to ME: Don't say a word.Hmmmmm ...Well, sort of- those may never completely reach the top- but the branches growing out of them will, so keep training them outward and we'll see what the (secondary) branches are going to do...
If there is a disadvantage in doing this to a taller plant, this may be it... but I'm pretty sure we can make it work out ok...
Mebs they realized if they stayed any longer they'd die so that's all they had time to grab. And when they got outside they realized what they had and dumped the contents. I bet they feel silly now they risked their lives for a plastic box!I'd like to know the whole story, but I never will...no real harm done, and they haven't been back, so I guess they just really had to have that plastic box.
So do your plants.I appreciate the support

Thanks, Shed ! She really is a beautiful plant, and she seems to love the training ..I know the training isn't for everyone, but if I can help a few folks grow better plants, I'm more than glad to do it..and, I've learned so much here, it's nice to be able to give something back..GSC is looking stupendous and I'm loving the training pictorials even though I'll never use them.
And the yellow duct tape really makes it "pop"And I think that pink pool noodle is the cat's meow
Amen to that!but if I can help a few folks grow better plants, I'm more than glad to do it..and, I've learned so much here, it's nice to be able to give something back..
Good morning C Masterclasser!Happy Saturday, everyone!
Not really an update, but today, I'm going to touch on a couple of things you can use to tie your plant down once it grows past the edge of the pot.
We do this to try and get the plant nice and wide, while trying to keep it fairly short so it doesn't outgrow our space...
First, the pool noodle method, which will work fine on fabric or plastic pots, although there's a better way to do it if you're using a plastic pot- but first ,noodle stuff...
Get yourself a pool noodle at the dollar store, then, cut it in half lengthwise....
Then, just wrap it around the pot, mark where to cut it (sorry, no pic of that )
Then cut it to length, wrap it around the pot so it's nice 'n tight, and tape it at the seam.
Then, you'll need to go around it with some type of wire, or even string- this will not only hold it tight, but if the tape comes loose, the noodle will stay put- we don't want this thing falling off halfway through the training...The wire/string also keeps it tight on the pot so the plant doesn't lift it up (yes, they will lift it)
The other way, which is what I recommend for plastic pots, is suction cups- they don't come loose, and they're infinitely adjustable. These came with the windshield shades that I lined my grow box with, but you can also get them on amazon- they're pretty cheap. I've used them a couple of times, and they do a great job...
Since the noodle and the suction cups are both pretty close to the pot, we may need to add some spacers to the tiedown wires so the tiedowns pull the plant down at the correct angle, which keeps the tiedown from sliding back down the stem toward the pot...
Use fairly stiff wire, and you can just poke it into the noodle to hold it....
That's about all I've got today-
To be honest, I don't feel that I've explained it very well, but I hope you get the general idea...Don't hesitate to ask questions if there's something you don't understand!
And, If you can think of another way to do it- give it a try- these are two ways I came up with, but that doesn't mean that it's the only way to do it
Sorry I got to this so late in the day- I've been doing some plumbing, roofing and electrical work at my mom's house, and I've still got weeks worth of crap to get done there...(I know, wah,wah,wah...)
One might think so, but you're the only one that ever asked about it. ..but this training isn't for everyone- it takes more time than some folks want to spend, or have time for...I realise you have probably explained your technique many times since you joined
