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.

Trim "armpit" branches?Growing mainline and wondering about trimming the new branches so bud growth is focused on main stalks. My last round I had one plant that I didn't trim at all-not a fun harvest. Other plants I kinda trimmed and went well. Should I get rid of them all? See last photo week 12.

Do you think the girls are ready for the flip to 12/12? I am mainlining so both plants have 8 grow tips (topped 3 times). It has been a week since Long Shanks got her final topping and 3 days since Sweet Baby James got hers. (I have circled the 8 grow tips in the photos).

Broke Stem branch while main-lining Now 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? Thanks for your tips and inputs!

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.

LST or leave them be?Should I Low stress train these girls? I have never grown autos and I am very afraid to stun them. They are ripping fast through water, temperatures are high so they are producing a lot of sugars. I defoliated the fan leaves of #3 in the hope it will grow a bit faster.

Mainlining Question When should I start tying down my new mains? Should I let them grow out more? I feel like if I tie them to early they would just point up towards the light the next day and I would have to tie down again.

Too many veggies (question re: length of veg time)?I’ve had this Amherst Sour Diesel vegging for months. Is there such a thing as vegging for too long? Also, Miss Mia Wallace (as ive makes her) has had her share of issues from soils to nute issues and thrips. All seem to be under control. Will this impact yield?

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?

Number of colas To other growers which top and manifold their plants, do you prefer fewer branches with big colas for example 6 or 8 main colas with everything else trimmed off, or do you prefer as many branches as possible as long as they reach the top canopy?

Prune everything below the top-most node?So what do you guys reckon: should I prune everything below the top-most nodes one last time at the end of first week of flower to control the colas better? Rows of green on youtube does exactly that in his mainline series.
