You will want some rubber coated wires for your plant to feel comfortable with, but I guess you can also use the ones you already have, as long as they don’t have cutting edges that may damage your bby. I just wonder if it isn’t a pain in the ass to bend those steel wires.
As for the LST just gently bend her one side and tie up the base of the stem so you won’t hurt the roots. Than you wait for her to push back and basically just continue with the LST until aprox. the middle of flowering stage when she stops growing.
However I’d wait a bit more if I were you, you’ll want at least 4 nodes before LST imo.
Hope that helps, cheers

The great thing about dollar stores is cheap steel lol it looks pretty thick 👌 but it's not strong...but strong enough to hold a plant....I hope. Thank you that was a great answer, I was wondering if I should wait and you just put it to rest. It's a little bushy down there and hard to tell but there are 4 she's on 5...I got shiny PVC hitting at all angles....

Am I doing LST right? 1st attemptThis is my first real attempt at LST, and I’m wondering if I’m doing it right. This Ak-47 auto flower is a little small because I started it in a windowsill for too long, but the canopy is spread out wide and the height seems even. Does it seem like I’m training it right?

Any techniques far as creating multiple holes 🕳️ in 10. 2 gal plastic pots to tie them down once big enough to? Or Trellis Net will be ⏰ saving?

To LST or not to LST?I have 2 healthy Automaria II, paradise seeds, 3 weeks after germination and 16 cm tall, on the balcony and I am tempted to bend one of them and practice some LST of FIMming to see the difference. I don’t know.. I don’t want to risk the final harvest quantity.. Any advise?

Is that LST correct? (senna auto)My plant is 25 days old today, yesterday I did an LST, today it has adjusted and rearranged upwards again. I pulled the wire a little more, I want you to judge if this is correct or if I can adapt something better? (OBS: It's a Senna AUTO)

LSTGood day!
I have a question for experienced growers who've used LST.
The stem usually branches out to 2 branches, one of which is just one big leaf and the other branch has nodes & other branches.
Do you put the branch with the big leaf below the rest, above or prune it?
Thx!
