LST time; all Green Crack auto.
LST time? I’ve not fully decided whether to do LST or not. Already I am doing a few variables within my first grow. But my question is then are any of these girl ready for LST ? They are all Green Crack auto. I have plants numbered 5,4,3,2.

When do you start topping? Photoperiods need to LST? Can ya'll just go look at my diary and tell me if my ladies look like they should LOL.
When to top or LST? Do these look stunted? I'm super curious about methods for best yield. I'm already worried my girls are leggy (but I've gotten some great advise already to let them rest but also give them bigger pots soon). Planted March 20th. Pictures from today.

Hello all! There is surely no correct answer for this question, i would just like to know what you (experienced growers) think is the best way to prepare (train) your plants for a ScrOG

Should i take off the hooks (LST)
Someone here told me that it is not fair to lay the girls on the ground as i did, because the leaves touches the soil. Should i set them free to go up and continue the LST once the plant is some centimetres up? Or should i leave it like this and keep going? I dunno what to do.

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)

I have a 1200W Veg/Bloom LED which is currently 20" above Martha. I am also LSTing her and am getting good solid growth from the lowest branches which are working to reach up. I am wondering if raising the light 4-6" and try to stimulate some vertical growth. Is this a good idea?

Any outdoor auto growers out there? What do you recommend for increasing yield? Topping? FIMing? Go au naturale/nothing? Still a couple of weeks before flowering stage.
