Hey man usually start to train once they have 4-5 nodes and they will be fine ✌️✌️🌱

I start training between day 14 to 21. I lay my plants totally down as well. You can start training early as long as your getting proper light.

By the third node, it should be strong enough to start training. 👍🏼

Focusing on Full Healthy Buds
I think my baby autos went to Flower way too early and I’m not too sure where or when I made the mistake. With that being said I know my yield won’t be huge (as I am expecting this since this is my first grow) but is there any way that I can maximize the size of my buds?

Am I doing LST training correctly?
I'm at the beginning of Week 2 (AUTO-FLOWER), I'm trying to do some LST, little bending and nothing more. Can anyone please say if I'm doing everything correctly? I don't want to stress my lady, and I also won't do it bad way. I will be grateful for every tip!

Advice on defoliation/LST - getting too chaotic here
Is it fine to cut off some of the big fan leaves this early or should i just tie them down to expose the tops to more light? If defoliation is fine already please let me know which leaves can be cut off, and if not i also kindly take advices on tying them down. Thanks!
