Thinning or LST? Which is best?

I've been looking into LST (low stress training) as my grow room is only about 5 feet tall so that only leaves about 3 feet to grow in without buring my babies. LST seems pretty simple and it should solve the height issues. However, I think I need to do some thinning too to maximise light to bud sites. Such as removal of the lowest set of nodes (after 30 days or so) and removal of some of the other larger fan leaves. I know removing these can cause stress so I need to be careful. Does anyone have a good tutorial or info on how, when & where I can remove unwanted leaves? I'm about to start my third grow and I dont want to make a mess of it.... Thanks in advance!:bigjoint:
