They look fine but in the future try to defoliate a couple days apart so you won’t stress the plant as much happy growing looks good 🍃🍃

Hello fellow growers,
It's my first grow so I'm a bit scared to start LSTing it, i mostly waited for it to grow higher and then do some LST but since she get bushier than higher I don't really know what to do.
I also would like to defoliate it
Can I start LST and defoliation?

Anyone got a preferred method of doing things? I’m hoping to LST for another week or so and then switch to flower am I rushing things? More Defoliation?

Should I remove some of the dense foliage as I start LST, or wait? Other suggestions appreciated!The Durban Poison and Jack 47 are very dense, with tight nodes. I’m beginning LST this week to get more light to more of the branches, but should I prune some of the excess foliage? If so, how do I decide what to remove? Thanks in advance for your help!

Defoliation/LST for Northern Lights AutoHello! I am struggling a bit with deformation on my NL auto. Please see pics from week 7. This is after defoliation and it looks like fan leaves will overshadow cola sites again in a few days. Should I defoliate more or leave it? Currently managing with LST but leaves are getting bunched.

Topping or LST after 1st toppingLast week I topped this little baby, the plant now is growing ok. I noticed that not only the two top side branches are growing a lot, but that the ones on the node under it too.
I would like to make the 4 grow and like that I don't have to top more, is it ok? How can I do it?

Have I LST'd right?I have tried LSTing and tied down the stem to the pot. I also have a scrog net to help with pushing some of the leaves down and I have tucked them. Does this look right?
I feel like I need to also remove some leaves to help but don't want to damage it as its an auto. thanks

Defoliate or not touch untill harvest?Both autoflowers on diy cheap setup, not a proper one.
They both have nice aromas and this is my first grow, the main question is, how much more i wait for harvest?
The tall one is cherry pie auto, the small is royal dwarf auto. Seeds sprouted 23/08

Defoliation every 3 days during floweringI heard about defoliation every 3 days during the first 3 weeks of flowering. My sweet critical CBD is almost ending her first week, I already defoliate once, but I think I have to work on it more to let branches grow. What do you think about it? Thank you all!

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
