Research LST and try it out. Will train your plant to grow flat and wide rather than tall. 🌱👍

Autos queriesHi guys, have a question for all of you, I have so many tiny branches (one of the pic shows you exactly what I mean), shall I leave them or cut them all? I can cut them at this stage of flowering?
Also, I bought Bloombastic by Atami, shall I give it now? Or when (in Autos)? ThxWeek 6

Light distance and StretchHi,
Thanks in advance for the answers. My green crack auto from seedsman is 61 inches tall and is now beginning to fill the stems in with large buds. I was told that it was to stretched and my light was to far away. Is this a bad thing? I kinda wanted stretch cause more fill inWeek 9

Oh no! I didn't give them the proper light power and they stretched too much!The girls are already in their final containers and they are only 1 week old. Any tips what should I do to fix this issue and avoid stressing them out while I do it?
Perhaps I should just use a guide? Add more soil? (it's already near to the top tho) or should just ignore it?Week 1

Too Tall Too Quickly - How to slow this down?Following grower's advice, I chose not to top my autos.
When buying the seeds initially, I tried to buy only strains that were said to grow up to medium height.
Towards the end of week 5 and my Blackberry Gum is 90cm high.
How can I slow this down without affecting yield?

Beginners mistake: how best to navigate light stress issues for tall plant in a too small tent?We have two autos in 5 gallon pots in a small 24"x24"x48" tent. One of our plants is inches away from the LED grow light and it's experiencing light stress for sure. What can we do to get these plants to harvest as best as possible? We are LSTing now.Week 7

Plants too tallThe ladies are exaggerating and the veg season is going to last at least 1 more month or more. I keep doing HST but it's not enough. Even on multiple branches. Even stopped feeding. Any suggestions?

Late topping to take direct clone from topping after 8 or 9 nodes?Late topping to get a decent clone (two nodes) with first topping?
What do you guys think, is there a too late for topping? Normaly i top only the tip and take clones later from branches.
My girl nr.4 is three weeks behind she could catch up, cutting the clone from branches?Plant. Too tall

Plant too tall : Reduce light time exposure ?Hey ! My Blackbery Auto (@fastbuds), week 7, took 30cm in one week. She will be too tall soon, for my indoor grow tent. Should I :
- Reduce light time exposure. (19h -> 12h) ?
- Give up, see this like a positive thing, and just put her outside to do what she want :D ?Plant. Too tall
