Topless Autos
FuturJuicestarted grow question 3y ago
Morning Cultivars,
This question is for all of the “Auto Growers” out there. Do you top an auto? If so when and What types of issues have you had? I am looking to experiment and mainline one of my autos.

if you want to experiment that's fine, but be prepared the first few times for the possibility that they stay small. I would cut at the second or third internode and do a nice LST right after.

Info about frequency of LST/SCROG the main stemShould I keep bending my auto’s main stem back under the SCROG net daily if it keeps straightening? It’s Week 3, I'm going straight with SCROG. Worried about stress, I have to wait a few days between adjustments or keep tucking daily?

Just did my first LST. Any thoughts?Hello!
This is my first time doing LST. This auto flower is about 3.5 weeks old, and I just tied it down in two spots. Do you think this is a good start to Listing, or is it too much bending? Too little?
Thanks to all who take the time to answer! 🌿🍅

LSTIf you use LST on autoflowers, is there any chance for them to finish later? I had an experience where I did LST on auto and it took more than 15 weeks to finish her cycle. She stressed out a bit, though. And how is it possible that some people achieve 8 weeks veg with autos?Setup. Strain · Autoflowering

Does my autoflowering plant look okay after toppingI did topping on week #3 and have been doing LST during the last 4 days.
I feel I over-stressed the plant. Seems like it's to small for it's age.
Please take a look at the photos I have attached and say: Does my plant look okay as for a middle of the 4th week of vegetation?😐

LST Defo = This?It's my first time doing LST and defoliation. And even after many years growing outdoors and reading so much, still would like to hear second opinions to make sure I'm doing it 'right'. She's fed right after training and defoliation to help recover. Opinions?
Thanks
