Hi there! I think it is too early to start Lst just yet. Maybe wait until she has 4-6 nodes before starting. This way you also have more lower branches and all of them will became new tops for you!

Split Stalk Down Center
Stalk split down the center due to stressing it too hard too fast. I have it secured in place but it's about 3 weeks into flowed and I'm worried about its effect as well as if it can heal.

Improving LST newbie skills
Any tips on improving my LST on autoflowers? Should I also use bamboo sticks? What is their actual purpose? Can you hurt the roots when sticking one in the soil ? I did a lot of research about LST and came up to this pic. How to you build that spiral ? Should that be a goal? Thxx

Please help with LST on Seedsman Auto Lemon
She grows very squat and bushy. 3 weeks and only 13cm high. Big fan leaves cover many branches and grow nodes completely. Not sure what to do with her. Is it a good idea to bend the main stem 90 degrees? Or just tie the side branches to the edges of the pot + make defoliation?

Late LST - Week 5.5 - Done correctly?
I have decided to begin LST, despite the risks of stressing the plant at this stage. I figured with it being a hardy strain, it may tolerate the stress and the benefits may outweigh the risks. Have I done it right?
