I probably made more than a few mistakes while doing the manifold / LST - lack of room inside the tent and it being the first time I've done this being the main issue. Next grow should be good.
Plant notes:
Gorilla Zkittles right 3rd node twisted oddly, probably from poor LST
Braincake is odd as well, 2 of the 1st node colas on the left are stunted, and on the right 1st node 1 of the colas is stunted, but the other one is doing well - might end up with only 5 regular colas. Picture showing this added: "Braincake - 01/17/2021 cola stunted growth"
Chempie seems to have recovered and vigorous growth is ramping back up.
OMG is doing well, very tight strong growth - makes me scared to LST, but I will attempt anyway.
Update: I LST'ed the plants - added top view pics of plants.

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 it’ll 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 Nebula’s 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.
