ButtersStotchstarted grow question 4 years ago
If I have 2 months of veg left, what would be the drawbacks to mainlining to 256 colas if I’m 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. 🌱👍

autoflower, extended veg time, due to mainlining "topping,training" and stable genetics and pot size ?Could you in theory manipulate the veg time of an autoflower, by doing main-lining "lots of topping, training" with good genetics, oversized pot, 24 hour lights and good timing ?

Question about mainliningIm getting ready for the outdoor season..planing to mainline a stativa strain+indica strain.
My question is: when you have already done your last topping and you're now letting your plant grow out, do you cut off the side branches growing out from the mains or do you leave them?Other. General questions

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

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?

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?

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?

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.
