Hey guys I didn’t break a branch this time! Did some tying up with Grand Daddy no idea if I did it right or even accomplished anything

Are tying for weather safety?
 
LST involves tying down branches rather than leaves, and your branches don't look big enough to tie down yet. The only LST it looks like you could do would be to slowly bend the whole plant over.

If you want to learn what LST is and why it works, check out this thread:

How I perform low stress training on my plants: Lots of pics!

Greetings all! I've had members ask about how I do my LST (low stress training) on my plants so I thought I would do a pictorial on it. My pics are of two different plants but don't let that confuse you. It's just easier to demonstrate that way. Let's discuss the theory behind LST for a...

Thanks shed I shall fix it I’ll have to read more of your thread when my son goes to bed but from the little that I read does that mean you don’t need LST if you topped?

Also I think I found the source of what’s eating the leaves… caterpillars!

LST can still be used to train the plant after topping, just not by bending it over. I use LST to keep the top two nodes (four branches) flat after I top to let the lower branches catch up. As each sets of branches reaches the top I use pipe cleaners to tie them flat, leaving the lowest ones that I'm keeping (usually the 4th node) to reach the top.

Once they're all at the same level they can grow up together in a flat canopy.

BT spray (Bacillus thuringiensis) will do them in.

Ah ok so I kind of had the right idea just to early and the wrong spot? I shall check the zon for BT. Just sprayed the autoflower and the lil death Bubba turned the lights off, I kinda want to bring them back outside or get a light timer hard to keep track

You tied the leaves rather than the branches, but your top node branches would need to be another inch longer before you could get a tie on them.

Well, you don't need to flip autos. Looks like she's going into flower now, so I wouldn't try to top the side branches.
You might want the opinion of someone who has more experience with autos than I do though.
Maybe @BooWho2 or @Jon can give you better advice?
