Autoflower LST tutorial?

Working on my first grow and I started a little bit of LST but don’t want to stunt my growth or diminish my yield. Any advice or Pro tips?

I’ve learned a ton about auto’s from this place, check it out. This thread and particularly the OP.

@dbrn32 - Should this maybe get moved to the autoflower section? Thanks!

How bad is this really?? I was training a plant this morning and bent/folded a main stem but did not Break in half. It will fold almost completely down if not supported slightly. I would provide a picture but as a new user I am not allowed to post a link to said pics.

It’s fine. You just crushed some tissue. It will form a knuckle at the crease that’s strong as ever.

Congrats on your first supercrop. :wink: You can keep an eye on it, to make sure it doesn’t split as it heals, but it should be fine.

LST shouldn’t stunt your plants. It’s when you start stripping growth and topping that they stunt.


Here’s how it looks with no support

Yeah, she’ll be fine. She’ll get a nice fat knuckle right there and that toio will turn back up. Supercropping is actually a really popular method of height control, but to keep overall height down and to keep colas growing at closer to the same heights.

AFN is good stuff. There’s also a show on IGtv that’s an autoflower 101

What’s it called, I’d like to check it out!

I think it’s fine here, these methods are basically the same whether plant is auto or photo.

Also, I jad to remove your link. Linking other forums not allowed here, sorry.

Thanks for the advice to let her do get natural thing. Seems unaffected and continues to hold its own… Valuable learning experience…If i don’t learn something new each day then that day is a total failure
