Bending branch
Jakedstarted grow question a year ago
I decided to bend the branch to form a bush.The stem was quite thick and when I bent it, I formed a large bend radius, but the next day I noticed that it took a sharp angle. How bad is it, and if it's bad, how to fix it? Thanks in advance🙏

No worries, you accidently did supercropping.. she will bounce in a few days, may form a knuckle where you bend, thats also normal.. just keep in mind, when you bend the plant one way, support the mainstem by tying it with rope in the opposite direction to prevent any accident as it grows

I’d leave it, it mostly likely will recover on its own.
If not, You just topped it and will need to veg a bit longer. But will have a much bushier end result.
The plant is incredibly resilient!

All good she mega cropped her self, but these thin wires you using isnt good. Wires can later cut stems, use pipe cleaners or hair gums.

When stop LST?First time grower here. Have been doing LST, and it seems to work well. I've just spotted pistols, so she is starting to flower now. So my question is, should I stop LST? Should I remove the (padded) wires? Or, when do I stop? Or should I keep LST until I harvest the flowers?Techniques. LST

How does one LST a FIMed plant? Where to start specifically?What LST method should I use with my FIMed Strawberry Gorilla Auto? Should I try to Tie Down?

LSTIs it possible to use the lst method for an autoflowering plant, every time I see that you can bend and fix a branch under the lamp?
I'm worried that it will be extra stressful for it, but I also don't want it to be too tall.
When is it advisable to stop bending?Week 5
