Update...on Acapulco Gold

https://www.democraticunderground.com/127911199

Decided not to bother with clones with plans with growing more Autoflowers, photoperiods just don’t fit into the schedule.

This plant took to LST (low stress training) like a champ never took a pair shears to any part of it.
Granted me three top colas,with the promise of some really nice side branches.

It’s now over a meter in height. Now we feed, water and wait.



Using garden staples I held down the main stem when there was three nodes, stapled in the back of third until the stem was basically laying on the ground.




Every day the stem wanted to return to its former position, just kept pushing the staples down.




As you see I got three stems now. There should be numerous side branches.



Not all strains take kindly to LST, but most will give you a better yield even if it doesn’t take well.
