Leave em unless you want them to grow back up.. until about week 4-5 of flower at which point they’re not gonna do much growing or adjusting to light

Do not untie,is looking great,now she is going to strech,keep training if she want to go back in some wrong position.but def you have to reduce the amount of training during flowering. Good luck 👊🏽🍀

Toping vs tucking the top down
This is my first time not toping my plant and am focusing on LST in by just tucking the top under my screen. Has anyone else done this and what were your results.

LST, defoliation and topping advice..
Plz look at my four girls and advise when I should top them? LST going ok so far but think I need to wait a bit before topping? 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?

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. ✌️

3 NL Autos from ILGM all started at same time, but plant 2 received no training: did training DELAY or STUNT plants 1
Plant 1 has healthiest foliage but smallest buds. Plant 2 seems farthest along but stalling out. Plants 1 & 3 fattening. Just delayed? Seeing amber trichs here n there, but lots of clears/milky all over. Flush plant 2 for a week or two and harvest but let 1 & 3 go longer? THX!

Outdoor Auto Training
Any outdoor auto growers out there? What do you recommend for increasing yield? Topping? FIMing? Go au naturale/nothing? Still a couple of weeks before flowering stage.

How to do LST when flowering has begun?
The plants keep stretching even 3 weks after the flip and it will grow in to the light when the flowers start to beef up, what would be the best way to do some lst without snapping the hard branches

Does LST ever stop?
Tie downs for LST. Does it ever stop? When do you stop pulling her flat and let her shoot up? Do you ever remove the ties downs? When?

Grow method advice
I want to grow plants tall however considered doing LST. Any suggestions on growing techniques here, maybe topping instead? If i do LST does that mean they wont grow up tall? Was thinking of doing different methods but want them all to be the same height. Also want good yield.

LST possible?
Is it possible or even beneficial to do some lst on them? The internode space is very tight and the stems are not flexible, plus they started preflower. They are 4 week old autoflowers and I feel like the lower leaves don't get enough light.

LST Advice
Hello Cultivars! Second grow for me and I'm looking for some advice. How long do "you" LST? I have had several conversations on this and figured I'd post the question since I'm new on the platform. TIA! Happy Growing

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?

So I used LST and had the top tied down pretty far. while messing with the plants I accidentally hit it to hard breaking the main stem about 1/3 the way up from bottom. Instantly taped her back but curious if I should keep it off or what. It was and entire break, 2 pieces.
