I don't see the point in mainlining an auto or an outdoor plant. The stress from mainlining an auto will probably hurt it, keep it small, and it will flower before you're ready. Outdoors gets plenty of light and height isn't much of an issue, so mainlining doesnt make much sense to me there either. Even with photos, your end yield may be better, your buds may be prettier, but is it worth adding weeks and weeks to your total grow time? I dont think so. Defoliate to open up bud sites to light and that's it. My opinion, of course, I'm sure its hotly debated, but most people wont even top an auto.

autoflower, extended veg time, due to mainlining "topping,training" and stable genetics and pot size ?Could you in theory manipulate the veg time of an autoflower, by doing main-lining "lots of topping, training" with good genetics, oversized pot, 24 hour lights and good timing ?

Overenthusiastic SupercropThink I overdid it with the supercropping. The worst branches hang below 90° but the growth seems healthy, everything turned up towards the sun the next day. I changed the worst so they're supported and less than 90°. Is there more I can do? A way to avoid splitting the skin ?

Outdoor CanopyI know the importance of keeping a uniform canopy height when mainlining indoors but does it matter outdoors? Is the sunlight strong and mobile enough to distribute the light evenly or should I do my best to keep the canopy level?

They appear generally healthy, but is it too early to try lollipoping?
Also, if I do lollipoping, will any other pruning be necessary?

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?
