In keen to try an LST method. I'm thinking of...

I usually wait till I have some branches to play with but seeing as this is an auto I’d wait till about the 4th node and when you start bending be very gentle don’t do the full bend at once you could risk breaking the stem I’d do a little each day!

Hi @Jmanc! Once your plant has developped 3-4 nodes you can start working on those nodes, or on the entire plant (by bending the main stem). However, considering you're growing an autoflowering strain, you better not bend the main stem, or make sure you do not over-do: autos are sensitive to pretty much everything, and low stress training works well only when done slightly / smoothly / step-by-step. My first auto was a disaster because I was too violent on bending, and as a result, my plant was shocked, growing slowly, shape was weird, and she ended with mold because of the lack of stretch. Always remember the L (low) in LST when working on autos, less is more 😎 Hope this will help, keep us updated and happy growing! 👊

After 3 or 4th week or after 4th node is good time to start. Happy growing!
