Mainlline: Split stem prognosis and future plans for LST
CapeSharkstarted grow question 5 years ago
The future lies with more LST once tips grow out and after the 3rd topping to complete mainline. What’s the prognosis? Should I continue with light LST once grow tips grow out, wait, or no bother.
4 days since injury
1 of 4 fan leaves “stunted”

Thank you! If you don’t mind explaining a little more:🙏
-Can you provide an estimate of long should I wait or what I should expect to see before continuing with LST on that branch?
-Should I use tape/other to support the branch prior to LST in future?

Flower Stretch and MainliningFlower Stretch Question When I flip to flower, she will stretch and about double in size. Does this include all the bare growth I have cleared off during toppings? ie, if the stalk at the bottom is 12" from the bottom to the start of the last topping, does that 12" count in?4 years ago

Is this normal growth for a mail-lined plant?I mainlined 8 colas on both plants. Each one has a small stem growing at the beginning of each cola. Is that normal growth for a main-line? I thought at this stage it would be just 8 long colas.
Should I remove them or just leave them?

Number of colasTo other growers which top and manifold their plants, do you prefer fewer branches with big colas for example 6 or 8 main colas with everything else trimmed off, or do you prefer as many branches as possible as long as they reach the top canopy?

Auto Flower Main LiningWhen growing Auto flowers, Will main-lining delay flowering or will it continue to flower at the same rate regardless? I am experimenting with trying a 4 way Main line with my 28 day auto. I hope it grows out more before it kicks into flowering. no signs of pistils.

Mainlining worth it!I used to think mainlining wasn’t worth it because of the longer veg time but, that seems to be the only downside. Theres way more advantages with this technique I’ve found, especially after my latest grow.
What do you guys think about mainlining?

Days between LST for mainline/manifold trainingFor mainlining, after the first cut, do I need to move the soft garden ties out as the new growth tips grow? The green crack is really shooting out in recovery and I want to keep it in it's manifold shape as it does. How many days between LST sessions essentially?4 years ago
