LST timing autos

I place a wire at the very bottom opposite of the wire that holds down the top. Then you aren't pulling on the roots.

Not quite, you're looking to get about a 75-90 deg. Bend in the plant. Might wait for another set of leaves to go before bending her.

Node distance and LSTWondering if I should do something to increase node distance. I see so many journals of people doing LST and their plants seem to be stretched so much more and it seems much more clear where and what to train. Is this ok? Good? Terrible?Week 2

LST Defo = This?It's my first time doing LST and defoliation. And even after many years growing outdoors and reading so much, still would like to hear second opinions to make sure I'm doing it 'right'. She's fed right after training and defoliation to help recover. Opinions?
Thanks6y ago

I have a 1200W Veg/Bloom LED which is currently 20" above Martha. I am also LSTing her and am getting good solid growth from the lowest branches which are working to reach up. I am wondering if raising the light 4-6" and try to stimulate some vertical growth. Is this a good idea?Week 3

Topping/LST in same week or one week apart?Regarding manifolding/mainlining:
Is there any difference or what would be preferred between:
Topping as early as possible in week1 and LST new growtips in week2 vs letting stuff grow out for 2 weeks and Top and LST new growtips at the same time? Cheers 👍5y ago

How to do "LST" on Autoflowering Plants ?Hello dear growdiaries community, so on my last question people recommended NOT to use "Topping" for Automatic Strains but infact only use "LST" my question would be how that works, do i just bend down the leaves with the little things on the stem (marked on picture) 😂 thanks.4y ago
