LST autoflower - Help pls!
Burmeseanswered grow question 3 years ago
Hi there,Here’s my advice for you to perform LST.First,Start bending your main stem in one direction,as parallel as possible to the soil.Be careful not to break the stem. Counteract that bend from opposite side.So that your main stem can’t fall off easily and accidentally.Then continue on doing that as the main stem growing taller.Do the same to the other branches and spread the branches to side way.Don’t worry if the leaves touch the soil. It’s normal to touch the soil.You can remove those leaves later on of they are yellow or damaged.Also Next time if you want to perform LST, I would like to advice to you grow the plant a little bit off center.In that way she can get more horizontal spacw for training.Bend the main stem,Spreas the branches,Make an even canopy.Good luck and happy growing... ✌️

Birmanes, Thank you man! yes next time it will not be so centered , always learning eheheh
Later I'll make some adjustments and try to open it a little more but without forcing too much to not hear the "snap".
If these leaves turned yellow, when I take them off I have to cut the branch too, right? sorry for the question but it is my first cultivation and experiment with a plant.
you have one of the best diaries I've seen here, all very well described! Keep it up!

gmslave, Congratulations, your flowers are amazing! Thanks for the tip, very well thought out!
I saw that you continued training during flowering, but on some seed bank sites they say that when flowering comes we should stop so as not to delay growth. I think I will test both ways
Great job and thanks one more time!

Enough LST for an autoflower?I was wondering how much LST and how intense the LST on an auto should be? I heard you shouldn't stress autos too much, that's why I'm extra careful and wanted to ask. (And yes I know it's overwatered, I'm letting it dry out at the moment)

What should I do with my plants that have grown thicc to receive more light? - First GrowMy plants (1 auto, 1 photo) have grown a lot and are now pretty thicc. Should I remove some leaves to allow more light directly on the new growths from the nodes? More agressive LST? Leave them alone? They have grown in a weird pattern because of my LST attempts (see pic).

Lower leaves too pale or yellowing?I am noticing the lower leaves of my Royal Critical Automatic to be much more pale green than the top of the plant.
Is this a nutrient/light/watering/lst stress problem if at all?

Early flower and plant too small?Multiple questions: Is this the first sign of flower on the picture of D21 from sprouting? Doesn't the plant look to small for it still? How do I promote new node growth? Is watering roughly about 1.5L per week too little for nutrient influx?

Will this tape repair a broken stem?Should I re-wrap this broken stem? Bent with too much pressure and there was a snap, though not completely severed. I applied two or three layers of duct tape, not sure if the constant pull of ties will allow it to heal and repair. When should I take the tape off?

ScrOG tucking: expose lower smaller bud sites by tucking/compacting main cola branches?For a better yield, should I aggressively (but gently) bend main leading branches and tuck all shading fans to expose young 'undergrowth' branches (circled) and bud sites to light, or, inversely, untuck fans and straighten leading branches to give more light energy to them?

LST possible?Is it possible or even beneficial to do some lst on them?
The internode space is very tight and the stems are not flexible, plus they started preflower.
They are 4 week old autoflowers and I feel like the lower leaves don't get enough light.

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?
