Sure, you can start now.
- Have a plan on how you want to do it, and how you want the end result tho.

What do I do with my LST ties in flower?I'm planning to switch to flower soon and I have been using LST on my plants. I know LST should continue for the first two weeks of flower, but what happens after that? Should the ties stay on, or can they come off? I trained the individual branches rather than the whole stem.Techniques. LST

Should I defoliate after topping with LST ?I just did my first topping and she took it very well, no signs of stress and actually growing really fast I think.
I was thinking about LST the top colas so the lower ones can reach that height, should I cut the top leaves shadowing the lower future colas?5y ago

I met this kid yesterday that said he waters his plants every day and not to LST. My plan was to make the plants grow in a spiral essentially.
I just wanted to hear everyone elseโs opinion on this kids statements. He has like 2.5 grows under his belt where I only have .33 grows.Week 3

LST : now or later ?Hi guys !
I'd like to try LST on these sisters.
Just wondering, looking at the latest photos do you think they're tall enough ? Or should I wait a bit more ?
Also in which direction should I tie them down to maximize yield ?
Thank you in advance ! ๐โ๏ธWeek 3

PREFLOWER or PARANOID!?!?!?As this is my first grow i just want to get other opinions and be more confident but i believe that this plant is starting to preflower... correct? Plants are at day 23 from seed but seem to be stunted from what i think was high light intensity during the first few days of life.Buds. Other

Grow help and adviceHey guys little help.
Need an opinion on how my plants are looking. Iโve successfully LST the one but left the other. Both are topped under 18/6 light. Watering .75 L with bio buzz grow and add bloom and top max every other watering.
Also does this look like flowering ?

!! OUTDOOR !! || LST on AUTOsNever had a satisfying LST when growing Autos outdoor, my idea is that suboptimal conditions of outdoor enviroment lead to slowed veg (compared to indoor) and low stretch. Maybe letting them grow without training in the end leads to bigger yield. What's your idea/experience?Buds. Too few
