Preflower: Still going for LST?
m0useanswered grow question a month ago
This is an autoflower not a fast flower, that is something different. but easy to confuse, Yes they both flower faster then normal standard photoperiods but its not the terminology that has been standardized as of late.
Typically speaking, a "Fast Version/Flower" is one of two things.
1) A Photoperiod mixed with an Autoflower to make Fast Version seeds that tend to finish early.
2) A pure Photoperiod with no autoflower mixed in who just so happens to finish ripening up to two weeks earlier/faster then their other photoperiod counterparts. This is what I call Old Fast Flowers vs New Fast Flowers that are mixed with autos.
New Fast Flowers also have a chance of just becoming an auto as well.
Its in bloom now. Light LST to help air get to the nodes is nice, Anything to heavy and it may go into shock and be a negative overall.

You can keep going with LST until there are small "budlets" formed.

Your plant has been in flower for maybe 10-12 days. Pistils at terminal buds are flower, not preflowers.
On an auto, a pair of preflowers at growth nodes will be first visible sign within 7-10 days of onset of flower phase and 10-14 days before you see pistils at terminal buds. This would be how to compare apples to apples with a photoperiod. The plant flips to flower long before you can see anything.
LST should probably be done by this point. I'd still try to keep the colas as even as possible as far as vertical growth.

How and when to train?Hi,
first grow here. My automatics are at their 16th day above ground. I think I have to top one of my plants to keep her height in check. Where and when should I top her? should I rather only do LST or maybe even wait for now (but they are automatics, so I should be quick?)?

Too many buds because of LST? A yield full of popcorn buds??Should I cut off more buds to get a higher yield? I am afraid, that she will develope too many popcorn buds. Or is she looking allright and I can get a good yield without stressing her any more?
(She is in her third flowering week)

Hi Grow Community! I am trying LST for the first time. Plant is about 14cm hight. As far as I know I need to bend the stem until it's horizontal with the soil. But the stem of my plant is already so thick and solid. Does it need to be rly horizontal?Should I try and bend it more?

Bending branchI 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🙏

whether I should transition her into the flowering stage or wait a bit longerHey everyone,. I need your opinions on whether I should transition her into the flowering stage or wait a bit longer. I think I may have trimmed the main stem too much to the side, and I'm a bit worried. The pictures and the video is in my diary if you have a look I'd be glad

How far into flower is it okay to bend (LST)? Am I there yet?I see a couple little flower hairs coming in on the cheese plant. I've read that you are not supposed to train auto-flowers very far into flower, but I was hoping to get one or more bends in over the next week. Anybody have any thoughts?
