Do I Let these branches grow?
THC123
started grow question 6y ago
I am mainlining this plant, but Iβm not sure if I let the branches grow off at the every node or snip them off so the focus goes to the main cola?

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! π

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: https://imgur.com/qnpPYDu

Mainlining
Iβm kind of new to training colas as in topping and mainlining. When main lining after I top I want to end up with 12 colas on each plant do I cut everything that isnβt growing on the main colas?

Broke Stem branch while main-lining
Now it's standing straight up to heal It's still growing and look healthy, but what recovery time should I expect? Will it be strong enough to continue main-lining? Should I just release the other branch? Or wait until it's healed and continue?

When should I do subsequent tops to form mainline?
After 1st topping on mainline formation, how long should I wait to do next topping? Doing outdoor hot AZ grow. Been topping 3rd node as 4th begins forming. Am I too conservative? With 2 weeks between topping, concerned about running out of time.

Leave the leaves?
Mainlining this girl for a summer outdoor grow. Topped her for the 2nd time today. Removed nodes below 3rd node, but kept the fan leaves. Defoliate or leave the leaves?

Mainline with Nebulas method for 10 tops
Has anyone kept the second top node so you end up with 10 tops? ( Cutting off the bottom on the second node) How did it work out? Are there any drawbacks except space? Would it be an uneven split of nutrients decreasing the yield on the 8 main tops?

Mainlining Question
When should I start tying down my new mains? Should I let them grow out more? I feel like if I tie them to early they would just point up towards the light the next day and I would have to tie down again.

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!

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

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.

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?

Should i stop main lining 3?
So i'm a newbie and i snapped the stem on main lining. I tapped but left it bent. My reasoning is that i don't think i will be able to bend it if it grows more. 4 is bendy and i went even maybe too much on it. 3 is too thick already. Should i give up mainlining 3?
