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.

My question is concerning the use of LST, and it's correlation to longer than usual harvest times. It seems all the growers I follow whom train/defoliate their plants consistently harvest as much as 6 weeks later than what the breeder calls for. Any thoughts?

!! OUTDOOR !! || LST on AUTOs
Never had a satisfying LST when growing Autos outdoor, my idea is that suboptimal conditions of outdoor enviroment lead to slowed veg (compared to indoor) and low stretch. Maybe letting them grow without training in the end leads to bigger yield. What's your idea/experience?

Hello! do I LST my auto flowers or do I let them do their thing? please help ( for grow 2 diary 2)
hello! fastbuds recommends to tie down the side branches to increase yield, but for an auto is it not better to just leave it alone? I am lost. Zamnesia gives no recommendations. I'd like to get the most out of both my plants
