Mainlining
Shagrathanswered grow question 6y ago
Hi there!
I think this is kinda up to your own preference but I took them off when I did the second topping and removed all the excess at one time to get all the stress to same day.
You can remove them now if you want. Should not hurt that much imo

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 recommendโshould I remove them or not?Week 3

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?

Training?How exactly should I go about this plant when it comes to training? I've not grown a fem in a while and I'm just looking for a full canopy (or as full as possible). I know about topping, fimming and tieing down the branches, but is there some other/better techniques?5y ago

Should I switch reg to larger tent? Looking for opinions, first time mainliningIm currently mainlining a reg seed, confirmed fem, in my 27x27 tent, plan was to move it to the 3x3 once the last plant was harvested. Received my order of autos and am thinking of doing autos in the 3x3 instead. Just wondering if the 27โx27โx56โ will be good for the reg?

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

Mainlining worth it!I used to think mainlining wasnโt worth it because of the longer veg time but, that seems to be the only downside. Theres way more advantages with this technique Iโve found, especially after my latest grow.
What do you guys think about mainlining?

Mainline with Nebulas method for 10 topsHas 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?Other. General questions

Can I clone and mainline that bit I topped?Hi guys, if I top my Amnesia, I mean, literally top them, Like straight cut at the 4th node, maybe? and leave the other 3/4 node above.. May I clone that topped bit? If so, since It should be growing like a normal plant as should be sprouting from the top, may I mainline that?

Remove lower branches on this grow?Should I just remove the lower branches or keep them? They are getting pretty heavily shaded but I rotate the grow bag daily to expose the under canopy growth. This is the only plant I have ever not been able to LST the main Cola, I opted to top it and LST'ed the lower branches.6y ago
