LST and ScrOGHi, I'm a beginner grower, I only used LST once in my past diary and didn't master it all the way.
I'm growing in hydro and the container I'm growing in makes LST a little difficult for me.
My plant is auto .Can I start with LST and then switch to ScrOG for easier manipulation?Techniques. LST
