Live Stoner Chat Have Question on LST on Auto's.

[5mokeySmurf]

Hey; I’ve been LST-ing Autos for several years. Yes, by the time 3 weeks comes up they should be almost flowering and the main stem is certainly woody. So yes, late start.

Here is my process but I don’t recommend doing any fimming or topping on Autos until you have a few Auto grows under your belt.

I fim or top when she has her 3rd or 4th set of leaves. Then as soon as they recover from that I start LST.

As I LST I try to tuck fan leaves that are blocking sites. If they won’t tuck they come off. However keep it to a minimum until they are budding because until then she needs the fans.

This is end of week 3 veg of an Auto Cheese that has been topped once and LST’d.

Update on my LST. I want to thank all of you who have commented and all the users who have LST post. It really helps.
Here are the girls after one week of LST. I think I over did it with the one planted in soil. Maybe to many bends using twist ties. any comments?

small blades here or there but probably not full leaves this early. something like this and a bit of tucking IMO is your best bet bud.

Those are smoking looking plants. I couldn't photoshop pics that would look better.

No shit! Nice, sanitary looking room, also. I do love the DIY hydro rigs!

Thank you Lunarman for the feedback. wow your plants look great. Your LST looks great, so uniformed and neat. I see I have my work cut out for me on LST for the autos. This is my first grow and its tough because I planted 14 ( 7 Northern Lights, 4 in RDWC and 3 in soil( 4 Super OG Kush(soil) and 3 Critical +2 kush(soil). I am putting a Journal together and will be posting latter.
Thanks again
