Thoughts?
Should I be concerned or do something differently? The plants all seem to be very small height wise, but otherwise doing well.

LST stakes and ties
I have a question, do I remove the tie downs and stakes I used for LST? And if so when do remove, before flower? Also did I train them too close to the pot? First pic is start os LST and second is as of today [foliage and minor training for better air circulation]

LST or leave them be?
Should I Low stress train these girls? I have never grown autos and I am very afraid to stun them. They are ripping fast through water, temperatures are high so they are producing a lot of sugars. I defoliated the fan leaves of #3 in the hope it will grow a bit faster.

Height of Scrog Net over Autos
How high to place the scrognet over the auto flowers (pic below is 10 cm above the 15 cm tall plants), for them to stretch somewhat to still fill the net. The plants are in week 4 now.

ScrOG tucking: expose lower smaller bud sites by tucking/compacting main cola branches?
For a better yield, should I aggressively (but gently) bend main leading branches and tuck all shading fans to expose young 'undergrowth' branches (circled) and bud sites to light, or, inversely, untuck fans and straighten leading branches to give more light energy to them?

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

DWCbadassquestionmark
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?

Starting Training
I'm currently worried about my older plant set that seem to be constantly having the leaf edges curl and seem to be a little droopy and a little too dark green. Also I feel like I should be doing some sort of training. I would love to have some feedback on what you all think. ✌️

Lst...round stem?...like a spiral I guess.
What am I doing?....see how I bent her almost out of the pot, I don't want that and don't have the space for that. I want to keep it simple and small. Am I doing right or did I do a shnoot.

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.

Leaf Spots, weak color, and leaf ripple
Please help me identify possible causes of this: small spots on leaves, minor color fade (not burn) along edges, and strange 'ripple' effect. A user commented that he thought my plants looked deficient but hasn't elaborated further yet. What might this be? Multiple issues?
