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

Cutting off growth below node to be topped before topping dayI am mainlining the girl for an outdoor summer grow. I'm planning on topping next on the 3rd node after the 4th node is a bit more developed. After topping, I will remove nodes 1 & 2. I'm wondering if it would help or hurt to remove nodes 1 & 2 while nodes 3 & 4 are growing?

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?

Broke Stem branch while main-liningNow 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?

Did I lollipop too much?Did I lollipop too much? Left the top node only and stripped all lower bud sites but I left the fan leaves intact. Iโm planning on flipping to 12/12 in a week. By the time itโs done stretching will I have enough new nodes to form top colas, which is the goal here? Thanks growmies

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.
