Acabo de volver del fin de semana que estuve fuera✈️, la dejé en su caja encendida 24/7🔌 tras darle una ligera agua ,aproximadamente 30-40ml💦, me la encontré así, creció notablemente, le hago LST? Es buen momento?... ¿un alambre doblandole el cuello para que crezca horizontal?

Just did my first LST. Any thoughts?
Hello! This is my first time doing LST. This auto flower is about 3.5 weeks old, and I just tied it down in two spots. Do you think this is a good start to Listing, or is it too much bending? Too little? Thanks to all who take the time to answer! 🌿🍅

Плохой старт
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

Is it worth lst autos outdoor/greenhouse?
I have seen loads of lst pics and videos on auto grown indoor but can it be done when growing outside as its will already be under stress from the variable factors growing outside/greenhouse. Worse one being pests!

Topping or LST after 1st topping
Last week I topped this little baby, the plant now is growing ok. I noticed that not only the two top side branches are growing a lot, but that the ones on the node under it too. I would like to make the 4 grow and like that I don't have to top more, is it ok? How can I do it?

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?
