a 20 day plant seems like it would be good to go on lst. Ive seen people do it from 2 weeks.
you can give veg nutes now as well. most people will probably tell you to use half or quarter strength to start.

When to start your nutes depends on your nutes and your soil.

Wouldn't bother with LST until there is something there to LST. A few internodes, at the very least. Careful with bending and tying. The new stems snap rather easily.

Just like to add, don't tie them too tight around the stems, because the stems grow in thickness very quickly and the string can constrict the flow of water/nutrients/etc... or cause a break:mad:
