Yeah I would wait till she grew just a little more then start tying her down. But that's one of the best ways to increase yields

Improving LST newbie skills
Any tips on improving my LST on autoflowers? Should I also use bamboo sticks? What is their actual purpose? Can you hurt the roots when sticking one in the soil ? I did a lot of research about LST and came up to this pic. How to you build that spiral ? Should that be a goal? Thxx

Need tips/help with very very bushy plant
Potted for almost 6 weeks, grows super super bushy (already has 12 branches (6 nodes?), branches are so short that I can't even LST them. I guess she grows like that because of her genetics but maybe there's a way how to 'fix' her? Topped once, strain RQS Triple G

Royal Creamatic training
What kinda training would you recommend for this strain? RQS say it tends to 'grow one big main bud with just a few small branches,' so would it still make sense to do LST here?

How and when to train?
Hi, first grow here. My automatics are at their 16th day above ground. I think I have to top one of my plants to keep her height in check. Where and when should I top her? should I rather only do LST or maybe even wait for now (but they are automatics, so I should be quick?)?

This is my first experience growing indoors and also growing autos. Do you guys think the Northern Lights will survive ? It will recover in some way (I don't care about lower shields) ? Or should I just end it and focus on the other two plants ? BTW, this community is amazing

When is the proper time to discontinue LST? I am still spreading and tieing down the tallest shoots, when should I stop, or release the tie down, or should I just keep them tied down the duration? Thanks in advance!

LST different directions
Since she is growing taller can i train her to go the opposite direction using LST? She is strong but is definitely angled to the one side due to LST training(see pics ). Can I also do it yo other branches if so which ones?

LST advise
Just a quick question about my LST: By checking my last 3 photo uploads do you guys it’s working good? I’m not sure since it’s the first time growing and using LST. I’m quite confused with so many leafs popping up and I’m not sure what’s the next step. Just wait?
