Flower Stretch and MainliningFlower Stretch Question When I flip to flower, she will stretch and about double in size. Does this include all the bare growth I have cleared off during toppings? ie, if the stalk at the bottom is 12" from the bottom to the start of the last topping, does that 12" count in?4 years ago

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

Grow method adviceI want to grow plants tall however considered doing LST. Any suggestions on growing techniques here, maybe topping instead?
If i do LST does that mean they wont grow up tall?
Was thinking of doing different methods but want them all to be the same height. Also want good yield.Techniques. LST

When do you start topping? Photoperiods need to LST? Can ya'll just go look at my diary and tell me if my ladies look like they should LOL.When to top or LST? Do these look stunted? I'm super curious about methods for best yield. I'm already worried my girls are leggy (but I've gotten some great advise already to let them rest but also give them bigger pots soon). Planted March 20th. Pictures from today.Leaves. Too few
