Yes, you can! Just gently pull down the main cola only. ✌️🏻💚🌿💨

You can definitely begin to do some LST on them! Autos have a set predetermined life span. They don’t take topping (HST) that well and it can really hurt your yield. They grow slowly, especially in soil- but some good LST and a ScrOG and you’d be increasing your harvest 🌱

Advice on defoliation/LST - getting too chaotic here Is it fine to cut off some of the big fan leaves this early or should i just tie them down to expose the tops to more light? If defoliation is fine already please let me know which leaves can be cut off, and if not i also kindly take advices on tying them down. Thanks!

LST and defoliation I am trying lst on 2 plants (not in a diary). In week 2, I pinned the main stem down. In week 3 did it again so the main stem is laying flat. Lots of foliage. Should I be removing any leaves yet? And if so which ones?
