I start this diary with my first successes in mainlining. In these photo you can see the plant, that has been divided into four equal colas.
For a more active vegetation of this strain, I made a long daylight hours (20 hours) and give a moderate amount of minerals with a variety of additives. This promotes good development of the colas and allows you to buy time to increase the distance between the branches with some LST.
The plant is doing great now and only needed a night to recover from the stress and continue its vigorous growth.
On this stage of training I cut off everything below the third node of each cola, and then try to fix the tops as low as possible. This allows you to get space between the branches so that they evenly fill all the box space.
I also reduced the mineral fertilizer feed a little to give the plant more time to recover.
The result of training - the colas are strong and there enough space between them.
The plant is now ready to go on flowering stage. From now on, I increase the amount of nutrient fertilizer, stop defoliation and give the colas space, light and time to grow.
As soon as a see, that it's time to shorten the day, I change the timer and add T.A. Pro Bloom to the solution.
As soon as the plant bloomed, it very quickly stretched up. It was possible to switch to flowering very quickly and begin to effectively gain a lot of buds.
I significantly increased the nutrition with mineral fertilizers, especially the proportion of phosphorus and potassium.
In these photos you can see, that the plant forms not only 4 main colas, but also develops side branches that grow the same strong. This speaks to the "indica"-like phenotype of the strain, where branching is developed.
The plant blooms confidently, the buds are actively being covered with trichomes.
At this stage, I try to reduce the nitrogen intake of the plant and again increase the proportion of phosphorus and potassium.
After a week with FinalPart, and several days with FlashClean, the plant is completely ready for harvest. I am very pleased with the effect of mainlining, I got not only four central colas, but also a strong growth of side branches. This starin showed itself perfectly in my small box, training allowed me to significantly increase the yield.
(FinalPart and FlashClean should not go together, I bring them with different waterings)
I'm sorry I didn't bring a lot of photos of this variety, there was a party at my house that day and I gave all the branches freshly cut to my friends. 😁
I am completely satisfied with the cultivation of this strain, this was my first experience with mainlining and I consider it successful.
