Are we talking about from start to finish counting. Or just counting the weeks of flowering. Not much need county weeks of veg. When the plant has some pistols at the top start counting weeks for flower.
its had pistols at week 3 from seed planted march 16th I just wanna make sure im at the rightvstage with her
Ive seen alot on this but i didn't wanna ruin her messing this up! She has lower branches that if i bend one way the pistols on the lower end will touch the soil that's how short she is
Not really a wrong stage for autos. To me it does not look like they are flowing yet. Domt worry about the lst bending training stuff for now. It is your first grow. Just let them do their thing and get a feel for it. If you did not plan for it dont try and over complicate things now. Start counting weeks when you see a clump of pistols at the tops. After 8 weeks check the trichs and decide when you will harvest. Plants are looking fine. Keep it up.

You can lose any leaves that might wind up touching the soil when bent over and you can train to either raise bud sites or open them up to more light . I totally understand your concern but in my opinion, messing it up would be a result of not doing any LST and not trying to make the most of what's available by getting all bud sites to be at about the same height. As for size, this girl was LST'd when she was 3 weeks old and not getting any taller than five inches. By aggressively LST'ing through the entire grow, she remained under 12 inches up until harvest and wound up giving me a little over 3 ounces.
Yup. Could not see in other pic. Just call today day 1 and your good. Close enough.
i dont know the first thing about LST ill have to youtube some stuff then my 2nd plant is bushy and short the first one is taller and more open
I tied down the 4 sides and they are already bending up to the light i just tied them down around 3pm east time came home around 1am and they where looking up after there 4h darkness.
Id say your about right on track for 4ish weeks.
Nice yea i noticed the stretch that day she was already bending towrds the light when i got home from work! And hours before i bent all 4 side branches and cut off some fans the where blocking light to thhe lower bud sites not to much just bigger ones. And shes still doing good so i dont think i stressed her out or anything.
