I usually start when there are at least 3 nodes, those look to be the perfect size for training

Height control
I have limited space working with these plants, I know that blue dream likes to stretch. Working with a 2x4’ tent with a headspace of about 4’. Any advice on growing techniques to keep these in control while getting max potential volume?

Grow help and advice
Hey guys little help. Need an opinion on how my plants are looking. I’ve successfully LST the one but left the other. Both are topped under 18/6 light. Watering .75 L with bio buzz grow and add bloom and top max every other watering. Also does this look like flowering ? THANKS

First LST attempt, any good?
How did I do with my first LST attempt? I know it's a bit of an artform but one looks a lot prettier than the other! I was trying to bend them over and tuck to expose all the likely budding sites to light. Anything I should do differently? Thanks!

LST - How to Scrog help
Looking for advice on how to use a SCROG auto. Bought one to try LST but confused how it works. Looking at videos people just seem to squash on top during veg. Am I too late/early with it? Does it just grow into it or do I need to use the tie down method TOO? Doesnt look right :/

Does LST increase yields in autoflowers?
Those advocating LST for autoflowers promise increased yields. Is there evidence to support this? Other than flattening the canopy, which helps in limited spaces, is there a scientific reason why training increases yield?

LST advise
Just a quick question about my LST: By checking my last 3 photo uploads do you guys it’s working good? I’m not sure since it’s the first time growing and using LST. I’m quite confused with so many leafs popping up and I’m not sure what’s the next step. Just wait?
