Should i try LST on some of those ladies or should i just let them be ? (Not right now but within the 2 next weeks). I saw it was possible to make LST on autoflo in the first 3 weeks but is it really gonna mate the crop bigger or is it just gonna stress the plant ?

Yea man LST IS tha best , Low Stress Training or LST is like bonsai for cannabis plants. Itโ€™s the practice of gently bending stems and tying them in place to drastically change the shape of the plant. This is done to create multiple bud sites, even out the canopy, and overall help you use light more efficiently. Using LST can increase marijuana yields without changing your setup, and it's also surprisingly fun! I myself train my autos as early as I can but I try to wait and make that stem grow a little bit longer from the soill because when i start bending all the stems they get kinda very close to the soil and it gets a little bit more tricky to water but it's all good! Why settle with just one big cola when you could have many huge colas?

Exactly what you said, wait another 2 weeks till shes about 3-5 nodes tall then bend her over. If you're still curious check out my diaries, I LST all my autos because I dont top or fim them. And yes it does make a difference, it wont necessarily stress the plants instead it will promote equal growth between all sites.
