I'd say about around the right time, I usually do it 14-21d depending. Every couple days, keep stretching her out and retucking/rebending branches and updating your tie downs.

Advice on defoliation/LST - getting too chaotic here Is it fine to cut off some of the big fan leaves this early or should i just tie them down to expose the tops to more light? If defoliation is fine already please let me know which leaves can be cut off, and if not i also kindly take advices on tying them down. Thanks!

Check-in- How are we looking? Week 4, Day 2 Question: Are my plants wide enough to now start allowing more vertical growth? I have discovered I love LST! I'm very happy with most of my horizontal growth and am now thinking I should allow more vertical growth. Thoughts?
