started grow question 5y ago
Now that she is flowering, do I remove my LST tie-downs? Or do I just leave them on and make sure her stems have plenty of room in the loops?

Check my OG Diesel Kush autoflower diary out. I left all my LST ties down. Make sure you leave space for the stem/branches to thicken

I would leave them if anything try to keep pulling it apart to let more air and light in if possible.

ScrOG training during flower
With ScrOG, during flower, how careful do I need to be about the pre-flowering hairs and early bud sites when I’m tucking branches? I’m trying to gauge how aggressively to keep scrogging vs just letting them go.

How to do "LST" on Autoflowering Plants ?
Hello dear growdiaries community, so on my last question people recommended NOT to use "Topping" for Automatic Strains but infact only use "LST" my question would be how that works, do i just bend down the leaves with the little things on the stem (marked on picture) 😂 thanks.

Can I continue to tie down LST'd stem to horizontal or is there increased risk of breakage?
I tied down seedling plants 24hrs ago and they have straightened out much more quickly than I thought. My plan was to have the tied down stem elongate past the rim of the pot then allow it to grow vertical. Can I continue to straighten the stem 😄 or are they set like Jello? 😔

Does my autoflowering plant look okay after topping
I did topping on week #3 and have been doing LST during the last 4 days. I feel I over-stressed the plant. Seems like it's to small for it's age. Please take a look at the photos I have attached and say: Does my plant look okay as for a middle of the 4th week of vegetation?😐

Training Plants to early ?
I have 1 plant that towers above the others, should I already tie it down with LST? Should I bend the whole plant or the shoots? or is that too early for the plant on DAY 14?

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? (She is in her third flowering week)

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?

How can I make this better?
How do my ladies look? They are on day 1 of week 6. I would like these plants to fill my 4x4 tent. My question is how much longer before you would flip? Also what are your options on LST, Super cropping, Lollipoping or any other ideas on how to improve quality and quantity.
