Main Lining in view?
ily41started grow question 4 years ago
Hi everyone, I’m introducing you my little DoubleBanana Kush, she’s juste at C+21, she didn’t start with the best conditions.
My main question is, should I start main lining her, or I have to wait until the 5/6nodes?
Thank you guys 🙏🏽
Keep growing 😎

I usally cut earlier but i think wait a little maybe can reinforce better the future stems. After cutting I leave the plant grow by her self, if the genetics tend to grow only upward I bend a little the stems with some wires hooked to the pot

I always cut the main lining on day 14 every time. The plant can handle it without any problem. 👏 👏

Thank you MangoDudu, I saw your pretty girl and the main lining is working well !
I think waiting maybe 4days more, letting the 5th node completely out in order to cut at the 3rd « strong » node.
Is there next move after cutting the apex?
Thank you guy 😎

"Semi Main-Lining": Should I clean up the lower small grows on my 4 main branches?I am trying a (wrong) "semi"-mainlining...
TL;DR (my Diary)
1. Trained plant into a spiral
2. Got high, topped it
3. Cleaned 2 grows/nodes per branch
4. Bent main stem to grow horizontal = 2 lower & 2 upper branches
Should I clean 1-2 more nodes before flipping to 12/12

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

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?
