what is Lst?
what is Lst?Indoors, it depends on a lot of things. I prefer LST because I don't want to spend the extra time in vegging. LST, when done right, can give you all the benefits of topping without losing that top vegetation and this usually means more yield than topping alone.
However
If you were to spend the extra time in vegging such as "mainlining" for example ... you can significantly increase your yield of quality bud.
Therefore, @MIMedGrower's answer is probably the best answer ... it all depends ...
Every grow is different. Everybody will have their own opinion. Depending on genetics depending on the light source depending on the nutrients depending on the environment and depending on the type of media. Will have different outcomes. It could increase it if done right yeah.
I top mine 3 times then flower them and i get 4 to 5 ounces a plant with wedding cake. Alot goes into growing. Its more about facts and doing it than somebodies opinion.
Low Stress Training = LSTwhat is Lst?
that's very cool -I started doing the same thing a few cycles ago but only after they're under the big lights and seeing some of the tops grow faster then others.Low Stress Training = LST
" I start shaping the plant by tying down the main stem during mid veg. After a couple of days, I release it from being tied down. I keep repeating that through out veg and end up with nice bushy plants and an even canopy through out the grow area. "
I appreciate the tip - yes, mostly it’s fimming and topping that I do and I make sure all are supported adequately.If you do get into topping, fim, lst, mainlining, manifolding or other form of stress induction, remember to support the canopy so buds won’t break branches. Scrog, where you use a net screen or stakes. It depends...
If you start during veg, you'll get a bushier plant in my opinion.that's very cool -I started doing the same thing a few cycles ago but only after they're under the big lights and seeing some of the tops grow faster then others.

Interestingly enough, during veg the canopy is fairly even. It’s when I bloom them that a race starts to my ceiling.,.oddest thing. Could be angle on lights.If you start during veg, you'll get a bushier plant in my opinion.
To be more accurate, I really don't stop LST once I start. I start earlier than some might but I also don't stop until plants are harvested ... because later on, they will need support which is also part of LST.Interestingly enough, during veg the canopy is fairly even.

Exactly，brother.So many variables to consider for final results. In other words it depends.
I start at inches tall and don't stop until flower stretching is done. The sooner I can get multiple tops the better. For my best method so far, I bent as early as I could.To be more accurate, I really don't stop LST once I start.

The only time defoliation is beneficial is if you screwed up and got overcrowded. I never did understand why people veg so long they have to defoliate. What a waste of time and space.Higher yields, maybe not, more quality and even yields sure, less popcorn bud...for sure... but topping alone , without defoliation ? I would leave an outdoor plant without topping for best result. Indoor, lst and a little topping helps.

That looks like waaay too much work lolHow to LST (Low Stress Training)
Well here we go, LST (Low Stress Training) the ultimate way to maximize your yield. Before we begin lets get some knowledge on what you will be looking at. Light Brown : Pot Outline Green thick Lines : Main Stem Small Thin Lines with Green...www.thcfarmer.com
Step 10, things that make you go hmmmHow to LST (Low Stress Training)

LOL I love the way the internet growers try to turn topping and bending a plant into rocket science. If they really wanted to increase yield, sea of green is the way to go- no topping or bending needed.That looks like waaay too much work lol
