Added LST Spikes that I printed and trained the rest of the plants.
LST'ed Braincake right side too much, had a little bit of a break at the base. Hopefully it will recover.
Topped Chempie above node 3, cleared growth on node 2.
I will wait a couple days to finish topping the rest of the plants.

Gorilla Zkittlez seems to be potassium hungry, causing a slight deficiency
Watered the plants manually, the drip system pump doesn't output enough. ~3 gallons used.

Gorilla Zkittlez - potassium hungry, need to find a organic way to bring this up.
Braincake - The slight break from LST'ing on (01/09/2021) is almost healed, and the plant is not showing signs of issues on the right side. *whew*
Delaying the final topping for the rest of the plants until tomorrow night.
Update: I topped the rest of the plants tonight, I split the main stem on the OMG a little bit while LSTing too much. Put a little duct tape on it.
Added picture. I am done with the topping to achieve 8 colas, all the hard work is now done :D
I bought a new tent / exhaust fan / lighting - I plan to set everything up Saturday. My next update will be for Veg week 5, which I will create Saturday/Sunday.

Hey Man! Question on the chempie. I see you topped the main stem. Ripper seeds recommends FIMing this strain. So if I planned on FIMing the main top, will the main stem keep stretching? Or will it stop where I FIM? Just trying to get an idea of how tall itโll get.
@AccyStoner25, Hey there! I read the Ripper Seeds description recommending FIMing on the Chempie as well. This is my first grow in ~7 years so I can't speak from experience. But from what I read is that Topping/FIMing share similar goals. One of them being having the plant start growing laterally https://herbiesheadshop.com/blog/topping-vs-fimming
I am using Nebulaโs Manifold "Main-Lining" https://www.growweedeasy.com/manifold which uses the Topping technique.
Chempie is vigerous for sure, but with Topping or FIMing along with LST she(hopefully) is manageable.
