When to start LST?
SecretC8keSocietystarted grow question 2 years ago
Hi GD family. I have a question regarding LST on Auto. When will be a good time to start and at what week in vegetative stage?
Any techniques far as creating multiple holes 🕳️ in 10. 2 gal plastic pots to tie them down once big enough to? Or Trellis Net will be ⏰ saving?

A net with autos. Only if you weave the whole main stems down the net (it'll have to be low, and when then you'll struggle)
When nodes have a few CM. You can start LST. Let her take a natural shape.
2-3 weeks in, (all going well that is). You can start doing it. But as she's in a growth stage. You cm wait until pre flower and then start bending. But, is advisable to start directioning nodes so later it won't be hard to move the parts closeted to the main stem.
You can also bend the main stems vertical and do sideways grows. They seem to do better in static light grows.
If you need more help on this. Feel free to mes

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?

Defoliation for better ventilation?Should I defoliate/prune to ensure better ventilation? I am going to flip the plant soon. It is quite bushy with big leaves and sometimes it is difficult to water it as there are a lot of leaves down there.
And when is it better to put the net? Before of after the flip?

Early flower and plant too small?Multiple questions: Is this the first sign of flower on the picture of D21 from sprouting? Doesn't the plant look to small for it still? How do I promote new node growth? Is watering roughly about 1.5L per week too little for nutrient influx?

Enough LST for an autoflower?I was wondering how much LST and how intense the LST on an auto should be? I heard you shouldn't stress autos too much, that's why I'm extra careful and wanted to ask. (And yes I know it's overwatered, I'm letting it dry out at the moment)

What should I do with my plants that have grown thicc to receive more light? - First GrowMy plants (1 auto, 1 photo) have grown a lot and are now pretty thicc. Should I remove some leaves to allow more light directly on the new growths from the nodes? More agressive LST? Leave them alone? They have grown in a weird pattern because of my LST attempts (see pic).

Will this tape repair a broken stem?Should I re-wrap this broken stem? Bent with too much pressure and there was a snap, though not completely severed. I applied two or three layers of duct tape, not sure if the constant pull of ties will allow it to heal and repair. When should I take the tape off?

ScrOG tucking: expose lower smaller bud sites by tucking/compacting main cola branches?For a better yield, should I aggressively (but gently) bend main leading branches and tuck all shading fans to expose young 'undergrowth' branches (circled) and bud sites to light, or, inversely, untuck fans and straighten leading branches to give more light energy to them?
