How far into flower is it okay to bend (LST)? Am I there yet?
coriander
started grow question 6y ago
I see a couple little flower hairs coming in on the cheese plant. I've read that you are not supposed to train auto-flowers very far into flower, but I was hoping to get one or more bends in over the next week. Anybody have any thoughts?

you can train the plant(s) anytime after the 3rd week, these are autos so be careful as some autos do not like to be messed with, hope that helps

With regular i bend into the secondo week of flower, with auto only in the first so you can already ben for a week 😊👌🏼

General questions about my grow
Based on week 5 of my grow, does it sound like I'm on track with nutrients? Any advice on LST or defoliation? The plants struggled since I planted them so I wary of stressing them out. The only thing I'm doing at this point is tucking the leaves so the bud sites get more light.

LST DAY
I'm stressing over LST. I believe it is time. Going to get some materials for it now. If you look at my latest video though you notice my first plan stem is super thick already at 19 days, did i wait too long for lst for that particular plant?

Info about frequency of LST/SCROG the main stem
Should I keep bending my auto’s main stem back under the SCROG net daily if it keeps straightening? It’s Week 3, I'm going straight with SCROG. Worried about stress, I have to wait a few days between adjustments or keep tucking daily?

Does this LST look fine? Have them inside under the LEDs now that the sun is down. Primarily spend their time outside.

LST during flower
Is it okay to still perform LST during flowering? I've Been doing some very minor defoliation on tiny bud sites down low that aren't getting any light. I want to tie down some more branches but I also don't want to stress it too much at this stage. Just one week into flowing.

LST timing
I just topped my plant today, repotted and fertilized. How do I know when It’s time to start LST? Obviously I wanna give her like 5 days to recover and get used to her new pot, but I really want to maximize this yield. Thanks!!’

General LST questions (how am I doing?)
Should I be constantly changing the direction of the tie down on my main stem during LST or should I just be tying down new growth on bud sites? should I defoliate or use thinner ties (Using rubber coated wire) and should I let small growth grow up first or tie it down ASAP?

Интересно узнать. То как я поиздевался над малышкой и затянул вегу, повлияет на качество и колличество исходного поодукта. похоже получился фотопериодный экземпляр вопреки моим предположениям. Родителями были два авто и папа фотопериодный АК-47

Wann und wie mit LST anfangen?
Meine Pflanzen befinden sich jetzt in Woche 3 und ich möchte das sie nicht hoch sondern buschig wachsen. Ich habe Pflanzenklammern die 90Grad biegen können hier. Ist die schon bereit? Oder wäre eher Topping die bessere Variante?

Improving LST newbie skills
Any tips on improving my LST on autoflowers? Should I also use bamboo sticks? What is their actual purpose? Can you hurt the roots when sticking one in the soil ? I did a lot of research about LST and came up to this pic. How to you build that spiral ? Should that be a goal? Thxx
