This week was mostly spent recovering from her final topping and stripping. On each main branch, I topped down to the 3rd node and stripped off the 2nd node, leaving nodes 1 and 3 to make up the 8 colas I was planning on having. Once topped and her branches were long enough I pulled em down to make her flat again and now I'm just letting her do her thing for a little while so the branches can develop more. I really shouldn't need to do any more training, but if the canopy winds up uneven I will be pulling branches down to make it all level. I also took some clones from the first topping I did and they all rooted in 7-9 days even without any rooting hormones. They look a little sad because they sucked some nutes from their fan leaves while they had no roots but since I planted them in the solo cups they have slowly been growing and looking more vibrant. I was quite pleased with her fast growth this week, especially the last couple days where she was having noticeable growth even after only 6 hours between me checking in. Still not 100% sure when I will start flowering, but I'm guessing another 1.5-2 weeks tops. I've also been very pleased with how well mega crop is feeding her and how easy it is to use. Not 100% sure Ill need it but they offer a PK booster for use during flowering as well. Only time will tell if my Northern Soul will be a PK hungry girl or not.

Dude(ette), if you’ve never done this before then I can tell your right now this is text book 4-way lst/topping/manifolding. Really impressive and great diary on it so far! Love the strain choice as well. Gonna follow along cause this ones gonna turn out great 👍💪👊👍

@souljasam, np, I share the same commitment as well. It was a good call letting it grow out too. If you read her tutorial on defoliation she makes further mention of this as well ie. don’t necessarily cut off everything as u never know what can eventually sprout into a full blown cola. Either way, excellent results for a first grow dude! 👍

@TheBudWhisperer, Yeah, I've never done any of this before. I just followed Nebula Haze's manifold guide on grow weed easy. I actually wound up with 4 extra tops because some lower growth exploded and reached the canopy. So I figured why not let it go and see how they do. I think its safe to say it was a good idea as they are growing just as much as the other tops. I'm super happy to hear that it looks so good. I strive to do anything I do well and have put a lot of effort into this grow. Thanks for the follow!

Nice work dude, the harvest looks great. That mainline is crazy! How much did you pull down off that 1 plant?
souljasam
souljasamcommented6 years ago
Not sure. Wasnt that organized. That plant deff had the biggest and densest buds though.

Wow amazing so far. That training is perfect. Just flipped my girls and hope they are half as good as this! Thinking of putting mine under a scrog as they have actually stretched more than expected. Keep up the good work!
souljasam
souljasamcommented6 years ago
Hey, thanks. Ive been so happy that I haven't had any significant issues. If your plants are still short but still stretching a scrog would do some good. If they have already stretched a bunch and are almost done idk that a scrog would do much.Either way good luck with your grow!

Looking good bro! Want to try my hand at manifolding at some point also. Will follow your progress. Keep growing!😀

@XpectResistance, Thanks. Its been interesting to watch it grow through the training so far. coming up on doing my 2nd topping and stripping to get the 8 tops that I want. Good luck when you eventually try manifolding, it's been super easy.

@Stinkfox, Thanks! I'm actually just starting week 4. Just came across this site and figured it would be awesome to document it in a way that's easy to share. I can't wait to try this strain as I've never had it before. I'm also excited to start my next grow already. Got some high CBD hiydrow and early amnesia planned for my next grow.

@Tonino, I have actually never gardened a day in my life. I just did a lot of research and made sure I knew what I was doing before I tried it. Thanks for the compliment. It's good to hear the work I have put in is actually good work.
