Looks like shes off to a pretty good start, i would prune as little as possible, leaves store nutrients.

Hello all! There is surely no correct answer for this question, i would just like to know what you (experienced growers) think is the best way to prepare (train) your plants for a ScrOG

Should i take off the hooks (LST)
Someone here told me that it is not fair to lay the girls on the ground as i did, because the leaves touches the soil. Should i set them free to go up and continue the LST once the plant is some centimetres up? Or should i leave it like this and keep going? I dunno what to do.

Ideal time to begin LST ?
Ideal time to begin LST ? Any tips and/or tricks? In the past I have just pinched and pinched until I had 6-8 main colas, but I intend to use 2-3 scrog nets and LST to attempt an even canopy.

What Should I Do?
I'm planning on swazzing this next week and was wondering if maybe I should bend those long ass shoots to fall on my ring when I do? In my head it would even the canopy and get more exposure in the same. Am I wrong? Should I do it or just swazz and go? Any input would be greatly!

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?

Regarding Fimming?
First time FIM for my baby but I’m not sure if I did it right ... There is a very tiny grow in the middle that I noticed today - the two picture are 30 hours apart - did I get it right or did I FFIM lol :p ? Also the plant is still pretty short - should I start LST?

How can I make this better?
How do my ladies look? They are on day 1 of week 6. I would like these plants to fill my 4x4 tent. My question is how much longer before you would flip? Also what are your options on LST, Super cropping, Lollipoping or any other ideas on how to improve quality and quantity.
