Have I done LST correctly here?
Have I done LST correctly here? - first time grower. Not sure if I should be doing anymore or wait till it grows into it. Also the leaves feel too low down and some of them are touching the soil.

To LST or No LST?
Does practicing LST on autoflowers actually increase your yield? I ask this because I look at people who grow without any training at all and they seem to have way more bud sites. I prefer an answer from someone who has experience growing both ways. Thanks

Have I ruined it?
Is this plant saveable? I’ve completely snapped the main stem while doing LST. I’ve put a small stake in the stem to hold it together and taped in up. Is she likely to recover or should I just start again?

Won't cut yet or should I?
Am I doing this right? The top arrow is the way I'm bending her, or do I bend her back, bottom arrow? I already stressed her out enough. I defoliated to get rid of shade, bent more. Tied down the twigs. Comments needed lol 👊

Should I remove some of the dense foliage as I start LST, or wait? Other suggestions appreciated!
The Durban Poison and Jack 47 are very dense, with tight nodes. I’m beginning LST this week to get more light to more of the branches, but should I prune some of the excess foliage? If so, how do I decide what to remove? Thanks in advance for your help!

Too much LST action?
Is this a very stressed bend? I lost a tiny branch on that side that I had to snip, then I saw this UGH. I can't wait until this shit is second nature!

Accidently topped my autoflower, we it survive/rebound?
Day 24 in my first ever grow. Mephisto northern cheese haze auto. Did a round of LST/Tucking last night, woke up to a fully broken off top growth of the main stem, effectively topping it(?). Is there anything I can/should do? Will it bounce back or should I start another grow?

LST time; all Green Crack auto.
LST time? I’ve not fully decided whether to do LST or not. Already I am doing a few variables within my first grow. But my question is then are any of these girl ready for LST ? They are all Green Crack auto. I have plants numbered 5,4,3,2.

LST/Topping for autoflowers?
Growing an afghan kush auto and a skunk villain auto (both 5 gal pots) in a snug 2.5 x 2.5. Wanting a uniform height I wasn't sure if I should top and/or train either- was thinking LST for the Skunk? Would also like to keep height mod. without sacrificing too much on the harvest.

LST on rigid main stem
I think I should have started with LST sooner. The main stem is rather rigid now. Unfortunately, I was away during Week 3. Would you recommend gradually pulling it sideways or better to leave it alone at this stage?
