Heya, Honestly personal preference grower to grower. Some would LST now while some others will wait longer. Since my grow space is limited I personally tend to start LST at the stage you're at. Cheers and good luck!

FEMALE OR HERMAPHRODITE?
hi guys my plant is 8 weeks old. it has been in a premature flowering phase for 10 days. I believe due to lights on during the dark hours. in your opinion, will I be able to get something out of it while still waiting, or has she become a hermaphrodite? ITS OUTDOOR GROWING andLSt

Flower stretch...top or tuck the super strechers?
Should i tuck all the tops that popped up over night? As you see my trellis is right about even with tops in my most recent pic, i swear these bitches grew 4..5 inches over night . I dont want it to get to close to light ,but also was unsure with topping a beautiful looking top ?

Low stress training. To undo and redo or leave them as is. That the question :P
Another one related to my lst. So i got the hang of doing lst. I started off really early with all on the lst. The plant is fairly close to the ground. Can I undo the lst and let them grow a bit tall and then re do the lst later? Or leave it as it is and let them grow as is?

Lower leaves too pale or yellowing?
I am noticing the lower leaves of my Royal Critical Automatic to be much more pale green than the top of the plant. Is this a nutrient/light/watering/lst stress problem if at all? First Grow. Started balcony, moved to tent D23. SF-1000 light, 100% at ~ 55cm from canopy.

Hi Grow Community! I am trying LST for the first time. Plant is about 14cm hight. As far as I know I need to bend the stem until it's horizontal with the soil. But the stem of my plant is already so thick and solid. Does it need to be rly horizontal?Should I try and bend it more?

How to save a broken branch?
I shook the pot's stand, and 1 wire dropped to the ground and broke a branch. It looks nice and if prop up it - can't even see the breakpoint. What should I do to increase the chances that the branch will grow back? The Red line marks where it was broken (the 2nd layer).

Can i try LST or are they too stumpy?
looking to start LST but my plants don't have much spacing in between nodes height wise, and lots of nodes.. is it too late to try and start or would it be a bad idea due to there not being much room for new branches to then form once tied down? sorry for noob questions!

Bent stem LST
So I did LST but fucked up and bent the stem a little. Should I just let it heal by itself or should I do something? It's an automatic quick one Thanks
