Wait until you’ve 3-5 node and you know you’ve got a good root system. Stronger your roots, quicker the recovery. Good luck bro 💪

Wait until you have about 3-5 nodes, and a good 6” of height. Too early and you may uproot them.

Wait for a few sets of nodes before you start. Your a good 2 week away really.

Hey, I'm thinking about continuing with the SCROG method. When and how is the best way to start with it? Does it even make sense in my tent that's 45x45x120 cm? Thanks for any responses 😉. Peace

When to stop LST
My question is when do I stop tying my girls down and just let them grow? You can see from my photos that I've got quite a good spread now, should I just let them do their thing or carry on tying? Thanks in advance

How far into flower is it okay to bend (LST)? Am I there yet?
I see a couple little flower hairs coming in on the cheese plant. I've read that you are not supposed to train auto-flowers very far into flower, but I was hoping to get one or more bends in over the next week. Anybody have any thoughts?

I snapped the main stem during LST by accident
Do you guys think my plant will recover with the main stem break? Details are in the journal but basically it completely snapped, was hanging by a thread of fibre. I used some allow and ducting tap that came with my exhaust.

LST Gorilla Glue Auto Fastbuds, does it look that good? And should I continue to tie down the main stem because the leaves keep overshadowing the side branches, or should I let the main stem grow up first?
