Fixing lst (late)
Organomananswered grow question 3 years ago
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.
Cheers, Organoman.

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 :)

Too many buds because of LST? A yield full of popcorn buds??Should I cut off more buds to get a higher yield? I am afraid, that she will develope too many popcorn buds. Or is she looking allright and I can get a good yield without stressing her any more?

Hi Grow Community! I am trying LST for the first time. Plant is about 14cm hight. As far as I know I need to bend the stem until it's horizontal with the soil. But the stem of my plant is already so thick and solid. Does it need to be rly horizontal?Should I try and bend it more?

whether I should transition her into the flowering stage or wait a bit longerHey everyone,. I need your opinions on whether I should transition her into the flowering stage or wait a bit longer. I think I may have trimmed the main stem too much to the side, and I'm a bit worried. The pictures and the video is in my diary if you have a look I'd be glad

Bending branchI decided to bend the branch to form a bush.The stem was quite thick and when I bent it, I formed a large bend radius, but the next day I noticed that it took a sharp angle. How bad is it, and if it's bad, how to fix it? Thanks in advance🙏

When do you start topping? Photoperiods need to LST? Can ya'll just go look at my diary and tell me if my ladies look like they should LOL.When to top or LST? Do these look stunted? I'm super curious about methods for best yield. I'm already worried my girls are leggy (but I've gotten some great advise already to let them rest but also give them bigger pots soon). Planted March 20th. Pictures from today.

Flower Stretch and MainliningFlower Stretch Question When I flip to flower, she will stretch and about double in size.

Grow method adviceI want to grow plants tall however considered doing LST. Any suggestions on growing techniques here, maybe topping instead?
If i do LST does that mean they wont grow up tall?
Was thinking of doing different methods but want them all to be the same height. Also want good yield.

LST and ScrOGHi, 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?Techniques. LST
