Make LST or not?

thanks for answers yall by defoliation i meant not now but as soon as it will be needed, also it is not my first grow, but first INDOOR 100% ORGANIC without any nutrients so they might grow a little slower than with that all boosters! made some lst and waiting to evolve, english is not my language so it might be the case also 😂 BR

I am a big fan of many training techniques, but you need to slow down. Grow few plants without training, understand what they need, how they grow and what you need/can do to make them feel better and reward you with loads of bud. Your plants look pitty, I doubt you needed toping at all,but you done it, forget defoliation !!!! I am a biggest fan here and I am telling you, that's not the one, or at least you don't have what to ventilate better, give more light or any other reason behind healthy defoliation. Growing is fun, just I don't understand why everybody starts to do Salto mortale on there first jump. Learn to walk first ! Hope it wasn't rude, all the Best !!!

Im kinda against defo,also the plant usually get rid of unecesary leaves by itself! Lst is almost a must! If done correctly,you can improve significantly the yield! Be always gentle 👊🏽 Good luck 🍀🍀🍀

LST yes, Defoliation NO The plant is to small for it to bounce back from a defoliation without it being negatively effected. Be is stunted or in shock where it does not grow well for a week or so. LST is a great tool when they are that size, I like topping in combo with LST. and doing a mainlining style grow. but it takes time. If you want to get a lot out of this plant, you need to let it grow out more and only defoliate once a month and other the leaves that are obstructing light and air flow. Best of Luck and Happy Growing.

I’m not sure I would be defoliating a plant that small? But starting some LST would be wise

If you want to achieve the highest yields it is best to train it a little more before switching to 12/12. Topping is a good beginning, I personally always try to get 8 cola's which means topping a total of 3 times. Also great looking diary!
