Is it time to start LST with this Sour Stomper?

[ClosetClouds]

Hey all,
I’ve heard traditionally you want to wait until you have 4 nodes to do any LST.
This looks like 4 nodes to me, but the plant is pretty small still.
Stem does like relatively sturdy.
Thoughts on starting LST?
Thanks!!!

(the green wire is the because the plant got super heavy pretty early and had to be propped up.)

What is the end goal you are training for? Is it just the one plant and you are trying to fill the tent?

Personally I would give it a bit more time to LST but it depends on what you are going for.

I’ve got 2 tents, the stomper is in my 2x4 with 2 other stompers and the one Jager that I’m playing around with. but I started LST in probably week 3-4 last run and it definitely gave me a lot more solid bud sites.
just wanting to fine tune my process and wondering about LST and whether I started too late last time.

i’ve also looked into topping, but it sounds like that’s not at all recommended for autos?

thank you sir!!
