You want those yo.. don't snip them off.. you can leave like 2-3 sites below the main one and be ok! Happy growing! 👊

mainlining should be split at a node of symetrical growth (if not a clone) and then again as many times as you want until foundation is set.
This one looks cool, found searching "marijuana mainlining" on duckduckgo images:

Main-Lining: cleanup center of plant and wait or stop cutting and switch to 12:12?I am not sure if I should remove the top 4 small branches that are growing up on the second picture...
As you can see, I used those green rubber-coated wires to bind down the main branches.
But on both sides of the stem - 2 small branches are shooting upwards: keep or cut?

Trim "armpit" branches?Growing mainline and wondering about trimming the new branches so bud growth is focused on main stalks. My last round I had one plant that I didn't trim at all-not a fun harvest. Other plants I kinda trimmed and went well. Should I get rid of them all? See last photo week 12.Week 12

LST or leave them be?Should I Low stress train these girls? I have never grown autos and I am very afraid to stun them. They are ripping fast through water, temperatures are high so they are producing a lot of sugars. I defoliated the fan leaves of #3 in the hope it will grow a bit faster.6y ago

remove lower side branches that are stretching outwards to focus on main cola?some of the the lowest growth shoots started to stretch outwards (some stayed short).ideally I would prefer one nice long bud.should I remove them? (maybe 2 or 3 in total)or better to wait until 21 days flowering.
probably should not defoliate for another week right?
thanks!3y ago

Fan leaves during main-liningDo you recommend leaving the fan leaves when doing main-lining, or should I remove them? My thought is that through those leaves, the plant will continue photosynthesizing more efficiently and won't experience as much stress. What do you recommend—should I remove them or not?Week 3

Are these plants ready for topping/LST? 2 have just gotten to 6th node and one to 5th (was planted 4-5 days after first two)Looking to top all three and potentially manifold at least one of these plants. Only concern is I just transplanted them in tuesday. They look great but I just want to make sure they are out of the woods on transplant shock before i start hacking away at them.

Main-lining Guidance.First time attempt at main-lining. This breed gave me huge colas on my last grow and I’d love to have an even canopy of them! Any suggestions, comments or even criticisms are welcomed. I’d like to know what I am doing right or wrong and know how to do it better.
Thanks all!
