TOP ? LST ? or wait ?

pitbulletstarted grow question 4y ago

My first grow. This is W3-D18. I don't want her to grow tall cause it's on a 1 meter tall room. Should I top it now ? just LST ? or still wait ? I'll post a picture of the stem and the leaves.

You usually want at least 5 nodes running up the main stem before topping. Topping will give you two tops instead of one, slow down the upper progression on the main stem and spread the growth hormones to the lateral branches making the plant bushier. If your strain is a strain that is known for getting tall then topping would be a good option.

Some people say top around the 3rd to 4th node and others say to wait till the 5th and 6th. Yours looks like it's ready to be topped. After doing so and waiting a week I would start to lst

Today is day 20 from seed, and i decided to lst my seedlings, even if some friends suggested to wait until the 4th week. What do you guys think? Since autos are so fast at vegging i thought it was better to lst them now.

LST - Am I going to hard? -/- Harvest - What to expect?Am I going to hard with the LST? Is it okay do make small adjustments every day or two? What do you think about the progress so far? I'm really wondering what harvest I can expect. Is it realistic to expect something between 20-40g per plant? Thanks everyone for taking the time

LST Defo = This?It's my first time doing LST and defoliation. And even after many years growing outdoors and reading so much, still would like to hear second opinions to make sure I'm doing it 'right'. She's fed right after training and defoliation to help recover. Opinions? Thanks
