Perfect! Pulling from both sides reduces the stress on the roots! Good work! Happy growing!

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?

If 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?

Is LST a Good idea for those autoflo ?
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 ?

LST correct?
Another week, another question lol eh knowledge is power 😝 Just want my first grow to be a success 🤞 Am I doing LST correctly? I've tied it down near the top of the main stem. Should I be tying the smaller stems too, to separate the canopy more?

General LST questions (how am I doing?)
Should I be constantly changing the direction of the tie down on my main stem during LST or should I just be tying down new growth on bud sites? should I defoliate or use thinner ties (Using rubber coated wire) and should I let small growth grow up first or tie it down ASAP?

I met this kid yesterday that said he waters his plants every day and not to LST. My plan was to make the plants grow in a spiral essentially. I just wanted to hear everyone else’s opinion on this kids statements. He has like 2.5 grows under his belt where I only have .33 grows.

Hello! do I LST my auto flowers or do I let them do their thing? please help ( for grow 2 diary 2)
hello! fastbuds recommends to tie down the side branches to increase yield, but for an auto is it not better to just leave it alone? I am lost. Zamnesia gives no recommendations. I'd like to get the most out of both my plants

I want YOUR opinions on MY training <3 :)
Hey people, this is not an important question, I just want to hear everyones opinion on the training I did today (supercropping, LST and defoliation). Does it look good in your eyes, was it too much, not enough or maybe too early / too late? And what should I do next? Thanks :)))

Please help with LST on Seedsman Auto Lemon
She grows very squat and bushy. 3 weeks and only 13cm high. Big fan leaves cover many branches and grow nodes completely. Not sure what to do with her. Is it a good idea to bend the main stem 90 degrees? Or just tie the side branches to the edges of the pot + make defoliation?
