    Well i topped for so long and it isnt the most efficient of techniques you have to grow the stems back as they were before or u will suffer, and this takes a very long time, i have experimented now for quite some time with extended veg periods and cutting anything off never makes sense in comparison to not cutting anything off but redirecting the growth instead.

    Lst is by far my favorite method. Even with super cropping you are damaging the plants, not as bad as topping or fimming, but it's still getting damaged and must repair itself.

    Lst is really the only way to not damage your plants what so ever.

    I've just lst'd one of my plants because I've got some clones some weeks behind it.

    Thanks for that geezer. I should have read this before I topped another 2 of my plants this evening thinking they'll outgrow the head height. I'll give this a go. They're all about a foot high. Is this still OK?

    I've been lst'ing on my plants of late and quite pleased with the results, looks a bit unnatural to have a plant growing sideways up but gives good results for sure.

    mmmmm I wonder if this would work on my male member, it's not exactly a low yielder and I have the progeny to prove that, but I'm sure the missus would appreciate a stronger, thicker stem LOL

    peace
