If I have 2 months of veg left, what would be the drawbacks to mainlining to 256 colas if Iβm already at 64?

Congestion of 256 colas.... our shitty unstable weather. Might be a Ontario botrytis accident waiting to happen. But with adequate spacing and separation through training and some luck weather wise. Could be a huge trim party waiting to happen.

Only drawback you have from creating so many tops is that she won't focus on building any huge colas, builds a even canopy instead.

64? looks like 32... I would leave it at 32 tbh. I think otherwise you're going to create some issuse with the roots and space and airflow. π±π

Tieing down colasShould I tie down the main colas on these girls to get a more even spread to or just keep letting them do their thing since they are growing into monsters and looking pretty even. Is it to late to tie down the main cola as well will this stress thre out during her stretch phase?Week 4

Perfect Mainline End look for maximum yieldFirst decent mainline grow from seed. Still learning. Avoided keeping tiny branches to avoid popcorn buds. Now that they are still vegging but have the shape I want, do I leave the branches now? Or chop tiny low ones to try and get THICK single nug branches?

How to top to make more colas (mainline)I was curious if anyone could help me understand how they train their plant to separate into like 7 or 8 different branches right down at the bottom of the stem. Almost looks like multiple topping on top of each. Any advice? Added a photo for more clarity.

As this is my first attempt at topping and mainlining I have no experiences to base my practices off of. From what I've read I should wait 2 weeks from my last topping to switch to flowering. I'm wondering if this is consistent with others experiences on GD. Thanks in advance!Week 7

secondary branches stretch during floweringI've been growing Moby Dick using a mainlining technique. During the stretch phase, some secondary branches have grown a lot and are not close to the main stem anymore. Should I keep them? Should I cut? Will they help making big, fat colas?
