4 white widow from ILGM grown in cococoir using botana care line, eventually under 1000 watt hps on 16/8 in a 5x5 tent, but started under 8 bulb floro. they are about 1 week old today. once they get 5 leaf sets they will go into the tent with the light very hi up. tomato cages will hold them up and be installed in about 2 weeks so as not to damage roots. experience has proven it takes very little stress to mess up autos. pictures after I get them into the tent in 2 weeks hopefully.

been growing various autos for a few now so, tho I am by far an expert, I kinda know what I am doing tho always room for improvement. never transplant, trim, fim, scrog or LST. just let em go. I tried scrog once but the roots are so shallow compaired to the photos that the plant literally tilted out of the ground. I water thurally when I plant them with no nutes, let dry completely or till pots are very light, then drench again with very little nutes and let dry completely then onto full nutes at 3rd watering which is about the 3 week mark. after 3 weeks I mini flush with full strength bloom nutes. about 1.5 gallons per 3 gallon pot and it usually works quite well.

Not true! We LST like crazy with our strains that have lower branches or our taller ones, bending down cola. FIM not so much as it takes autos too long to recuperate, our experience. However, several auto growers attest they do it (early on) and doesn't impact plant much.
Transplanting, as long as done carefully, not injuring root ball taking most of soil from smaller container into bigger, you're golden. Can't speak for hydro/coco.

However, everyone had their own method....grow with it.

You can transplant for sure. Just make sure it's done before the plant starts flowering.
Good thread, here until the last inning.
