First time grower - Is this done properly?

[CannabinoidCarson33]

Hey everyone, I'm currently in my first grow and was wondering if I tied this down correctly?
I Just want to know if I need to do anything differently to make her grow nicely....thx

Looks good, I would use a thicker twine so it doesn't "cut" into the plant stem. Think about a yoyo loop being too tight on your finger.

Looks fine for a lil LST, i like to use green tape, its cheap and easily found. Did you put holes in the bottom of your bucket?

I use metal wire and fashon Hook / stakes to use to hold down, and as it grows i just move them over or add more, way easier then tie and cut...and you wont even notice the 40 wires that your guiding with...also rubber bands make great equipment to hold growth down...and insures you wont cut into your growth, you can also use large bands ..and train multiple tops in a given direction, just get the band around your growth make sure its a size that works for the bend your looking for hook them to the same wire you train with! Allows you to train any way you want .... doesn't limit you to the side of bucket...but the good ole hemp twine to the side sometimes is the answer! Lst is the way to go forsure, looking good!

Your off to a good start, Keep tying down nodes around the pot to achieve your desired shape...

I use just regular ole string and then a piece of plastic air hose to protect the plant, like this...

Then I use duct tape to tape the strings to the sides of the pots. Works better on plastic pots than fabric...I found out the hard way duct tape wont stick to wet fabric...lol

ITS ALREADY GROWING UPWARD! YEAH BABY! Thx everyone

Did someone say, "Slurricane bush?" Because that's what your gonna have! Now give her a week or two and it will be time to take some clones! Isn't it cool the way they turn back towards the light so fast. What an amazing and awesome plant! So resilient yet trainable at the same time. Good job on the L.S.T. She will reward you well I think.

Grommet kits are cheap ($5-8) and functional for tying down on fabric pots. These are 1/2in., I recommend 3/8in.
