Hey man, you can start with lst as soon as it has a stem, but most people usually start training it between weeks 2-4.. Happy growing!!

Advice for beginners
Ok too cool thank you very much :) Unfortunately I had to launch my autoflowering session in 5.5L and 6L pots because I have not yet received the 10L Air pots. Good culture and nice Growdiaries page :)

Day 19 pre-flower and stunted growth?
Hi folks, I did a bit of LST on my auto a few days ago, then noticed stamens the following day and it seems that growth has slowed. She's day 19 (post sprouting). Does everything look ok?

LST + SOG - Should/could I remove the LST ties once I place a trelace net over the plants? My plants haven't grown upwards much due to the training/tying down to the pot... A tent and filtration are enroute to support operation, prior to flowering...

Is LST a Good idea for those autoflo ?
Should i try LST on some of those ladies or should i just let them be ? (Not right now but within the 2 next weeks). I saw it was possible to make LST on autoflo in the first 3 weeks but is it really gonna mate the crop bigger or is it just gonna stress the plant ?

Did I do this right?
I did some LST and I have no idea if I did it right or not. Lol the last picture is a before. I had just tied the top down that time. This time I moved the fan leaves so the lower bits can get more light and I'm not sure if that was the correct thing to do. White widow auto.

Too broken to save?
Aaaand I’ve completely disregarded my own plan of letting these girls grow naturally, and accidentally snapped the main stalk. Pretty much entirely across. I immediately taped it. But being that it’s an auto, is it even worth doing this?

When to start LST?
Hey Growers, I'm a few weeks into my first grow and I'm keen to try some LST. Is it too early to start training them? Also, they're a short strain so should I even bother training them at all? Appreciate any advice. Thanks K

Failed attempt at lst in my opinion....?! I dunno, I don't like how it curved at the base...f-n steel was a bitch😂 and how it's getting out of the pot, can I fix her? Do I keep on lst'ing? Did I butcher her? I let off on the top bend in the pic...also clone advice...good? Day 2
