started grow question 5y ago
Should a plant with very small internodal distance get topped or is LST + scrog probably enough to open her up?

Lst and defoliation or scrog are the Gold standard. Less stress and same results in less time.

Autoflower Training?
Well I Ordered some FastBuds Auto flower seeds for after this grow. What training techniques would you guys use on autoflower plants? Don't want to stunt their growth at all I'm assuming. So maybe just some l.s.t.? Cheers guys!

LST and ScrOG
Hi, 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?

When is the proper time to discontinue LST? I am still spreading and tieing down the tallest shoots, when should I stop, or release the tie down, or should I just keep them tied down the duration? Thanks in advance!

Have I LST'd right?
I have tried LSTing and tied down the stem to the pot. I also have a scrog net to help with pushing some of the leaves down and I have tucked them. Does this look right? I feel like I need to also remove some leaves to help but don't want to damage it as its an auto. thanks

How do you measure your plants correctly?
When measuring the height of a plant do you measure from soil to top of canopy or is it the length of the main stem? MIne are trained sideways.😎
