m0useanswered grow question 2 years ago Depends what you want to achieve from it all. If there where photoperiod I'd be topping them 100%
Given that Mephisto genetics only do autos "as far as I know" I would LST them vs HST "topping" them.
I have topped autos before and sometimes it works and other times it does not so why risk it when there seeds cost so much.
Get some twine and clothes pins for a easy LST option or buy them LST clips online. all great options. a SCROG net could also work out.
Best Of Luck!
