Is it ready for me to top a second time for this main-line grow or should I give my girls more time to recover from their snaps.

Do I Let these branches grow?
I am mainlining this plant, but I’m not sure if I let the branches grow off at the every node or snip them off so the focus goes to the main cola?

Outdoor Canopy
I 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?

Mejor manera de tutorar plantas grandes OUTDOOR
What do you think is the most appropriate way to support or train a large outdoor plant, using mainlining or multiple apical prunings? In my case, I'm going to do it in a 100-liter smartpot.

Thoughts, good idea or bad idea?
I got an idea from when I was pruning pecan trees growing up. If I install small LED lights directly inside each "window" or "pocket" will that improve total light and production, or will I just burn the plants?

Perfect Mainline End look for maximum yield
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?

Mainlining
I’m kind of new to training colas as in topping and mainlining. When main lining after I top I want to end up with 12 colas on each plant do I cut everything that isn’t growing on the main colas?

Split in mainline
Noticed this split at the base of Natasha's mainline. I don't think it's getting any bigger but I'm not sure. Should I cover the opening with tape to try and keep out water/bacteria? Ziptie around the stem to prevent further splitting?

Pruning????
Hello everyone. I am growing for the second time and this time I am growing 10 gorilla cookies Auto It is the 7th week. They appear generally healthy, but is it too early to try lollipoping? Also, if I do lollipoping, will any other pruning be necessary?

Mainlining - ready after three days?
When can I start mainlining? The four smaller plants still need a few days to recover, but the 2 bigger ones (Bruce Banner) should be ready - or should I wait as well? Thx a lot in advance for your help!

Mainline 3rd topping with only 7 nodes?
I'm using mainlining tech for one plant, the thing is one of the nodes didn't stretch yet, there's only one, I'm supposed to topping the 3rd node this week in order to have 8 main colas, but it looks like I have only 7, any ideas what it can be? I have no idea what it is.

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?

Yield Estimation
Hi growers! Estimation needed on what I can expect per plant from my super skunk. They're in Week 9 of Veg, 38cm tall, mainlined for 8 colas. I want to switch them to 12/12 next week. What can I expect as yield per plant and how is it gonna change if I wait a week longer?

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.

Is it a problem if one main cola is longer then the other?
Did my first topping/mainlining. Right cola is longer then the left one, is it a problem or will they even out? For now Im trying to break any apical dominance by holding the longer cola below the shorter one. Any ideas how to deal with this?

Mainlining defoliation
I switched to flowering 2 days ago. On the defoliation side of the training, when there are grow tips that are growing from an under node, do i keep them or do i remove them? I don't want any larfy buds and i want the plant to focus into the 8 mainlined colas
