It's fine, top the plant first and then bend her over for a nice even canopy, keep tying the tallest ones down

When stop LST?First time grower here. Have been doing LST, and it seems to work well. I've just spotted pistols, so she is starting to flower now. So my question is, should I stop LST? Should I remove the (padded) wires? Or, when do I stop? Or should I keep LST until I harvest the flowers?Techniques. LST

Mainline/Manifold: Trimming fan leaves after done with topping.Finishing up the topping portion of mainlining. P2 to be Nebula-Haze style and P3 to be Nugbuckets style. I'll be trimming growth tips other than from the 8 cola sites on each. Still keep un-shaded fan leaves below those levels? A lot online shows all lower fan leaves trimmed

How does one LST a FIMed plant? Where to start specifically?What LST method should I use with my FIMed Strawberry Gorilla Auto? Should I try to Tie Down? Do I wait for the top shoots to start showing? Tie just the side branches down? Bend the whole plant? Wait and do nothing? Please, all opinions matter. Thanks!

LSTIs it possible to use the lst method for an autoflowering plant, every time I see that you can bend and fix a branch under the lamp?
I'm worried that it will be extra stressful for it, but I also don't want it to be too tall.
When is it advisable to stop bending?Week 5
