Thatāll work just fine though I typically start by securing the base of the plant and pulling down from the top to let the undergrowth start. Then tie down the undergrowth in whatever direction you want it to grow as it starts to stretch out.

LSTIs it possible to use the lst method for an autoflowering plant, every time I see that you can bend and fix a branch under the lamp?
I'm worried that it will be extra stressful for it, but I also don't want it to be too tall.
When is it advisable to stop bending?Week 5
