I started 'lst' a week ago (too late), and couldn't tend to it due to circumstances. I am not sure how to handle my girls, they are now pretty tall and stopped bending. Could use some advice for fixing my lst
It is never too late to do LST, that is, up until about the second week of flowering in my experience.
You can keep tying the tops down, but don't go overboard, autos are a bit precious and don't like too much stress.

Lst is a great technique but it's continous. It's not a do it once and forget thing. It's a keep tying down the tallest stem to let the lower one's catch up thing. Feel free to look through some of my diaries to see how it's done. 👍🌱
Hi mate, I think you should just set her free. As Uk420show said, autos don't like stress and causes all sorts of problems... let her loose and grow fat buds. Good luck and happy growing
I would not LST auto flowers in my personal experience they don't like it and any stress you put on them will slow them down at the end of the grow it can also stunt them into flowering early and then affecting your yield I would untie them and let them be and if you don't believe me take a look at dutch passions youtube channel they have timelapses of their grows and they don't use anything and well get very impressive results. They look like really nice plants just starting out in life :) Im sure they will do well what ever you do but I would advise just feeding them and thats it lol best of luck pal :)
