Toping and lst not working together. Its just like mainlining, you loose time if apply both ... Toping for autos is nuts, if you even know how to grow, unless even one ounce is great result for You ...

Bei der WW-Auto vorsichtig sein und sie nicht zu stark Stressen. Die Gorillas können mehr vertragen. Aber vor der Blüte, die vermutlich nächste Woche beginnt, unbedingt aufhören…. Sonst wird der Stretch ausgebremst.

Beautiful plant! Well you don't have to topping, but if you wanted to you could do it now so that no branches go too far beyond the edge of the pot making it asymmetrical! Bravo! It is advisable to do lst until the second of flowering, removing the laces/sticks that have become superfluous and leaving only those necessary to keep the branches in place :) then if you want the last 2 of flowering you can do them without braces, it depends if it stays in place by itself :)

When to top an auto: NEVER. Autos rarely withstand the kind of stress topping does to a plant... they've got their own schedule and if you muck it up, they may not have time to recover and you could lose your whole grow... So put that right out of your mind unless you are a very experienced grower... and even then, put it out of your mind. LST is the most stress autos can deal with... Your LST looks very good... just keep adjusting it, i.e., continue to LST as she grows... you want to get the bud sites well out away from the main stem and into their own light... Good luck!
