I use pipe cleaners and tie to sticks or tie to the pots here’s a few different ones. You can do them pretty small I try to do them while they are still flexible, the older they get the harder it is to bend them. [20200615_073855] [Uploading: [20200615_073855] [20200520_142632] [20200307_190520]

Agree with everything @Oldtimer69 said. Only thing I would add, you plant looks a bit young yet and not sure how large the roots are.

Is a out door grow? If so, not a lot of reason to LST unless you just want to.

Yeah it’s outdoor. This is my first year growing Auto flowers and don’t know much about them or LST. I got the impression if the auto flowers would produce more with LST by letting more direct sun light to the lower branches…, In your opinion which way would produce more weight? That’s what I’m aft…

Yeah, I know what your talking about. I’ve seen it before . I really didn’t think about it. Thank you.

Truthfully I think it is totally dependent on the plants structure / strain. If it is open like the 3 jack herers I have outside I don’t see the benefit. However, if it is more compact and would benefit from getting spread out then that is the way I would go. See what I mean about the jacks [IMG…
