for the most part, you can lst at any point in the plants life regardless of lighting schedule. a good lst takes as little as 2 days to turn each shoot upright so take that into consideration.

it most absolutely will, you keep tying down the shoots after they've turned upwards and grown a couple inches, repeat and repeat. you can create a massive canopy this way aswell, as many tops as you want to create without damaging your plant with cuts.

no need to lst it , because its only going to get about 16 inches tall and you want to veg it for about 10 days first so it gets its rooting structure going then go to 12/12 and you could yield about an ounce off each one that you do , but it takes about 7 weeks till you about done with the plant . due to lack of maturing and im doing the same thing with my big bud plant

true, but not as much correct because if hes doing 12/12 from seed hes not going to get shit for vertical growth as well as big yields , and you cant lst while in flowering man that add more stress to the plant man , thats a major cause of hermie man .also slows down growth and productions as well

so when i do a 12/12 from seed i should actually give it about 10 days of maybe a 18/6 (or 24/0?) before going to 12/12???????

im having trouble with keeping my plant tall so what if i LSTed my plants but very lightly i.e. not bending the stem past 90 degress??? would this still stress/slow down my plant?

Vegging with 18/6 or whatever for 10 days is not 12/12 from seed. Yes, you can lst with 12/12 from seed because the plant will veg for a bit anyway before showing sex. I just had 8 plants show me sex yesterday 5 pussies and 3 bananas only took 20 days.
