Yasai420started grow question 3 years ago

Is it the right call to stop LST now? And should I stop taking fan leaves off? I have been doing it once a week.

Yes and YES! Training Autos to much is useless and taking of Fan leaves just lowers the Plant ability to grow... Autos have a very short window to be trained or messed with otherwise since they are on a timer. Just let em grow from now on 👍

Yes and yes. Just remember - less leaves = less energy being made = less growth. It IS that simple!

I would lean buds away from one another if possible just to keep inside open and stop major defoliation. Selective defoliation if needed. Happy growing 🌱

Space..Not enough space. I havent got experience with autoflowers, they are bigger then i expected, with so many tops. Is better to take smallest one (verry short pheno-left Down corner)away for better yields per plant? Or is it still OK? Thank you and sorry for my english. ✌️

Today is day 20 from seed, and i decided to lst my seedlings, even if some friends suggested to wait until the 4th week. What do you guys think? Since autos are so fast at vegging i thought it was better to lst them now.
