When I tie down, It usually stays until the last week before harvest... they will still stretch...
Happy Growing!😁

whether I should transition her into the flowering stage or wait a bit longerHey everyone,. I need your opinions on whether I should transition her into the flowering stage or wait a bit longer. I think I may have trimmed the main stem too much to the side, and I'm a bit worried. The pictures and the video is in my diary if you have a look I'd be gladTechniques. LST

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! 🌿🍅Setup. Strain - Autoflowering

What about poneytailing leaves for better sun penetration instead of trimming them ? (kinky post)It probably exists but I've never seen it. I poneytailed leaves instead of defoliating them, since it's their ultimate food suppply. Mostly the big ones not near the buds, can I do that on the main bud leaves ? Anyone uses this technique ? Is that a bad idea ? Did I over do it ?Week 7

LST or TOPing? I think i prefer only LST so where is the best time for start? And the best floor for a "bend"? Thx!Plant. Too short

Is that LST correct? (senna auto)My plant is 25 days old today, yesterday I did an LST, today it has adjusted and rearranged upwards again. I pulled the wire a little more, I want you to judge if this is correct or if I can adapt something better? (OBS: It's a Senna AUTO)Techniques. LST
