Remove leafs(defoliation) and new shoots?
After 7weeks and 3days of vegetation. And some LST. Should I remove the large leaves and the new shoots that are coming off the branch from each topbud? (For the purpose of entering more light and those "topbuds" reach the correct level)

When to flip a mainline grow?
My grow is far from perfect, but ideally, when is a mainlined plant good to start flowering to get a large yeild? Just moved mine to finishing containers, pretty stalky, but not a lot of leaves due to method. Worried it would impede growth.

Any of the gurus of LST, main lining and other grow techiques willing to share an idea how to further improve the plants behavior. 🙂 I intend to further remove branches and leave only one at each of the nodes where there are two, make the canopy wide and airy. +root cut branches

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?

As you can see, one of my plants is a few inches taller than the others. They've all been topped 3 times for 8 mains, but I'm wondering whether I should top the big plant 1 more time in an effort to achieve a more uniform canopy height before flipping to 12-12.

secondary branches stretch during flowering
I've been growing Moby Dick using a mainlining technique. During the stretch phase, some secondary branches have grown a lot and are not close to the main stem anymore. Should I keep them? Should I cut? Will they help making big, fat colas?

Tieing down colas
Should I tie down the main colas on these girls to get a more even spread to or just keep letting them do their thing since they are growing into monsters and looking pretty even. Is it to late to tie down the main cola as well will this stress thre out during her stretch phase?
