As soon as they break their seedling stage which is indicated by its first five tipped leaf your free to bend away. 🤘😤

The easiest would be in the middle/end of 3rd week and 4th week, but it can be on the end of the 2nd or beginning of 3rd, or maybe even earlier if you´re bold enough, Peace

Day 9, when can I start LST?
I was wondering in which week to start LST on my 9-day-old autoflowering plant to maximize the final yield, considering it gets 16 hours of light, in a 60x60x180 with SF1000D.

Late LST - Week 5.5 - Done correctly?
I have decided to begin LST, despite the risks of stressing the plant at this stage. I figured with it being a hardy strain, it may tolerate the stress and the benefits may outweigh the risks. Have I done it right?

LST or defoliation on autos
I think I will need to defoliate a bit those bushy ladies, but I am not so confident about that because, from what I've read and since it's my first time growing autos, defoliation or lst is not advisable because it may stress them a looooot or am I wrong?

How to do "LST" on Autoflowering Plants ?
Hello dear growdiaries community, so on my last question people recommended NOT to use "Topping" for Automatic Strains but infact only use "LST" my question would be how that works, do i just bend down the leaves with the little things on the stem (marked on picture) 😂 thanks.

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?

will she became too comfy to get training?
Im not planning to make lamp-plant dist. bigger, also dont want to gave up on the 24 per day light feed. She will grow like a bush, and thats nice but wont this affect her training manageability for the next weeks? If the folia remains this dense, she might not appreciate bondage

Need tips/help with very very bushy plant
Potted for almost 6 weeks, grows super super bushy (already has 12 branches (6 nodes?), branches are so short that I can't even LST them. I guess she grows like that because of her genetics but maybe there's a way how to 'fix' her? Topped once, strain RQS Triple G

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
