Too much/When to stop LST?

GratefulGrowerstarted grow question 5y ago

This WWA was extremely short and bushy, only about 10 cm on day 20. I went ahead with some LST anyway to open her up to the light. Time flies and it feels like she's still growing slowly... I am wondering if I am tying her down too much, and when should I stop?

Yeah once buds start to appear I'd say the stretch is about done. I've had some small bushy autos I wish I would of left alone to. You got some buds growing so grate job fam.

Yeah, in hindsight I guess I was a little trigger itchy on trying out that LST, even though she sure was small. Too small even for best results obviously.

Days between LST for mainline/manifold training For mainlining, after the first cut, do I need to move the soft garden ties out as the new growth tips grow?
