Spiral LST vs Topdressing/mulch
Spiral LST vs topdressing/mulch.. I planned on training like shown in picture, just not sure how this will work out with 1" of mulch and a monthly topdressing with all the pegs/wires, might get tricky. Thought about bending all sec branches to the outside vs 1out 1in?? Cheers

Accidently topped my autoflower, we it survive/rebound?
Day 24 in my first ever grow. Mephisto northern cheese haze auto. Did a round of LST/Tucking last night, woke up to a fully broken off top growth of the main stem, effectively topping it(?). Is there anything I can/should do? Will it bounce back or should I start another grow?

LST/Topping for autoflowers?
Growing an afghan kush auto and a skunk villain auto (both 5 gal pots) in a snug 2.5 x 2.5. Wanting a uniform height I wasn't sure if I should top and/or train either- was thinking LST for the Skunk? Would also like to keep height mod. without sacrificing too much on the harvest.

LST and Topping
I am starting to feed them nutrients and they are growing faster lately. I am considering starting LST and topping next week. LST when it reaches 4/5 nodes, and topping above the 5th node. Do you have any tips on how to perform this the best way ? Thank you in advance !

Is it time for LST?
Do you think I should start LST for ALH girls or wait a while? Friends who do the same Grow usually continue by doing LST on the 3rd and 5th weeks. I would be glad if you examine the photos below and enlighten me on this subject.

Hey everyone! I snapped a branch very badly 4 days ago, i taped it immediately. One leaf died on that part of that branch but she’s recovering im sure because this branch started growing again. My question is how long should i wait before trying lst again on that branch?One week?

LST attempt revamped
So I took the advice and added another tie at her base just so it's not pulling against her roots. I think I did it right. Top leaves are now pointing upward only after 1 hour after first tie...

Two phenos started flowering at 23 days
They look just fine don't they? I mean a few top leaves have suffered some heat stress, and some leaves can seem a bit droopy for some reason (definitely not from overwatering). But the RH is only 30-35%, I'm thinking maybe it has something to do with that, lack of preferred RH.

When should I LST and add Nutrients?
Wanted to low stress train this plant if I am able too.I am not really sure when to start, does the plant look old enough to begin introducing this technique? Should I wait another week? Also when should I start feeding the plant nutrients? It’s still growing pretty fast.

Is that okay? Will the smaller internal branches go upwards then? Because it's currently touching the ground a little

LST during flower
Is it okay to still perform LST during flowering? I've Been doing some very minor defoliation on tiny bud sites down low that aren't getting any light. I want to tie down some more branches but I also don't want to stress it too much at this stage. Just one week into flowing.

When to stop tucking under the net?
My autos are now in the beginning of week 5 and have already made quite a stretch during week 4. My question is what a good indicator for stopping would be or the perfect moment basically.

When to start LST?
Hey Growers, I'm a few weeks into my first grow and I'm keen to try some LST. Is it too early to start training them? Also, they're a short strain so should I even bother training them at all? Appreciate any advice. Thanks K
