Yes just keep the plant growing horizontally best you can till it goes to flowering. As side branches get bigger you can lst them as well.

LST and defoliation
I am trying lst on 2 plants (not in a diary). In week 2, I pinned the main stem down. In week 3 did it again so the main stem is laying flat. Lots of foliage. Should I be removing any leaves yet? And if so which ones?

Should I defoliate the lower nodes of the branches?
Wondering if I should defoliate the lower nodes of all the branches (as shown in the picture, white arrows pointing to what I am considering cutting) to maximize growth of each top. Thoughts?

Lower leaves too pale or yellowing?
I am noticing the lower leaves of my Royal Critical Automatic to be much more pale green than the top of the plant. Is this a nutrient/light/watering/lst stress problem if at all? First Grow. Started balcony, moved to tent D23. SF-1000 light, 100% at ~ 55cm from canopy.

LST rookie
Wondering about LST. I tried it this week. Its "outgrown" it. I wonder if I tie down the new growth and continue it horizontal? or move the tie down further up the plant to the end? I'm worried that on 2 trees I just "slanted" them and its not really a 90ish angle, is that ok?

More or Less nutes and Molasses?
My first time grow and my autos are in flowering. I’ve been giving them grandmas molasses (half teaspn/1gal) every feeding along with her other nutes. She’s been taking them well, should I up the dose? Or feed every other watering?

How often should i perform LST?
I performed LST yesterday and the plants have already stood up, and i feel i should tie them back down. I dont want to stress them out too much, but they have responded positively thus far. Any thoughts?
