Perfect Mainline End look for maximum yield
Mosherd7started grow question 5y ago
First decent mainline grow from seed. Still learning. Avoided keeping tiny branches to avoid popcorn buds. Now that they are still vegging but have the shape I want, do I leave the branches now? Or chop tiny low ones to try and get THICK single nug branches?

That's a judgement call. You could lollipop it and prune the lowest branches. Or you could let it grow and only prune top leaves that are blocking light or air flow. You're growing outside so I would choose the latter of the two options. You should be getting plenty of light to get good buds a bit lower than an indoor grower. Lollipopping MIGHT increase potency slightly, but I wouldn't give up the extra yield for such a small gain. Either way, it's a gorgeous plant!

Plants wilting in the hot sun - fine to leave or should I cover with shadecloth / greenhouse cover.Having some quite hot weather recently (33-35c) and my plants are looking a bit wilted. I assume it's heat related, however Im not sure if it's bad for the plant and I need to use a shadecloth or some sort of greenhouse to protect them. They bounced back to normal in the evening

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.

Summer is super warm and not windy. I have a humidifier, i am foliar spraying her with aloe vera and liquid kelp but unfortunately the 3rd node leaves are already burnt. How can i make sure the leaves will still help her going through the mainlining training stress properly?5y ago

How to top to make more colas (mainline)I was curious if anyone could help me understand how they train their plant to separate into like 7 or 8 different branches right down at the bottom of the stem. Almost looks like multiple topping on top of each. Any advice? Added a photo for more clarity.

Indoor/Outdoor GrowBesides the risk of pests, is there any downfall to taking my autoflower outside sometimes to get more space and fresh air? The light I’m using is pretty small so I don’t think my plant is getting hit throughout the entirety of it. I’ve been taking it outside every other day4y ago

Will males revert back to veg if daylight is increased by only minutes daily?I'm flowering a male to create new genetics/seeds. I flower the males outside early spring (US - Michigan). Will more than 12hrs sunlight affect the males like it does females? Could I leave them outside without them reverting back to vegetative as the day hours increase?Other. Other

New nodes after topping very small, should I top more?I topped my plants a few days ago, but just the tips when the side nodes where just as little as a few mm. I've seen a lot of you topping like a whole bunch of the top. I mainlined my plants but I dont know if I should top them again so the nodes under the top become main nodes.

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. I’m planning on flipping to 12/12 in a week. By the time it’s done stretching will I have enough new nodes to form top colas, which is the goal here? Thanks growmies

Rain and soilless medium questionRain is coming - about 60-70mm over the next week. I know rain won´t hurt my plants, but I´m growing in a soilless medium, so it will flush out the nutes, right? Place the plants inside? Add more nutes? Any best practice is greatly appreciated. Thanks 👍👍

Confused with light schedules for outdoor growingHi fellow growers, I'm really confused with light schedules for outdoor growing.
Everywhere I see 18/6 for veg and 12/12 for flowering.
However at my place I get ~13hours of daylight (not always sunlight)
Would my plants get into flowering if daylight is reduced to ~11 hours?

Slow Growth and Leaf IssuesTransplanted outdoors over a week ago and have noticed slow growth and new leaves have little holes and yellow spots on them. I've checked for bugs but can't see anything. Could this be nutrient-related? Or shock? Ph levels? Too rich soil? Any help is appreciated. Cheers.
