They look a little small for LST still. Just let them open up a bit. Personally, LST is not for me! Good luck. ✌️🏻💚🌿💨

I tie my string to paper clips which i bend open and hook on the branches I want to strain. Made my life a lot easier than tying and untying string to branches. Give it a try!

Should I remove some of the dense foliage as I start LST, or wait? Other suggestions appreciated!
The Durban Poison and Jack 47 are very dense, with tight nodes. I’m beginning LST this week to get more light to more of the branches, but should I prune some of the excess foliage? If so, how do I decide what to remove? Thanks in advance for your help!

will she became too comfy to get training?
Im not planning to make lamp-plant dist. bigger, also dont want to gave up on the 24 per day light feed. She will grow like a bush, and thats nice but wont this affect her training manageability for the next weeks? If the folia remains this dense, she might not appreciate bondage

How far into flower is it okay to bend (LST)? Am I there yet?
I see a couple little flower hairs coming in on the cheese plant. I've read that you are not supposed to train auto-flowers very far into flower, but I was hoping to get one or more bends in over the next week. Anybody have any thoughts?

LST training
When do you think the best time to start LST training on your auto flower plants, earlier or later to avoid disturbing the root crown?

Are my plants already starting to bloom or not?
I got 3 questions: 1) Do my plants actually bloom or not? 2) Do I need to add red light now? (For now I have 6 "cold" bulbs by 25 watts. Should I change all of them or just ad 2 for beginning?) 3) How can I boost stems growth or it's too late?

LST different directions
Since she is growing taller can i train her to go the opposite direction using LST? She is strong but is definitely angled to the one side due to LST training(see pics ). Can I also do it yo other branches if so which ones?

Topping and LST
(Not autos) I've topped before, but was wondering can you achieve the same yield just LSTing without topping, or is it best to do both? I know there's lots of info online but i feel more reassured listening to you guys lol, cheers

Training Plants to early ?
I have 1 plant that towers above the others, should I already tie it down with LST? Should I bend the whole plant or the shoots? or is that too early for the plant on DAY 14?
