Check my grow diary, I'm LST-ing my plants. You may want to consider twisting your stem so that all your nodes (branches from stem) are at equal height so that they grow equally. This will also allow your fan leaves and nodes to be more exposed to light.
Your leaves aren't an issue as the plant is still young so the nodes will stretch out to get light. If they are a little hidden from the light then just push your fan leaves out of the way without damaging anything. Also let your stem stand horizontally for more light distribution.
Other than that...if you are considering to Scrog(Screen of Green) then don't LST yet until you have topped your plant when it has 4-10 nodes(8-20 branches) and then LST the nodes.
But btw great development. I hope this provides you well. Good luck the rest of the way!

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

I have a 1200W Veg/Bloom LED which is currently 20" above Martha. I am also LSTing her and am getting good solid growth from the lowest branches which are working to reach up. I am wondering if raising the light 4-6" and try to stimulate some vertical growth. Is this a good idea?
