If they don't appear to be stressed after a couple days after training, you should be ok to keep on training.

New nodes after topping very small, should I top more?I topped my plants a few days ago, but just the tips when the side nodes where just as little as a few mm. I've seen a lot of you topping like a whole bunch of the top. I mainlined my plants but I dont know if I should top them again so the nodes under the top become main nodes.6y ago

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.5y ago

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 growmiesTechniques. Main-lining

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.Week 10

remove lower side branches that are stretching outwards to focus on main cola?some of the the lowest growth shoots started to stretch outwards (some stayed short).ideally I would prefer one nice long bud.should I remove them? (maybe 2 or 3 in total)or better to wait until 21 days flowering.
probably should not defoliate for another week right?
thanks!2y ago

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.5y ago

I have raised light to 23". Am I on the right track here?Leaves. Color - Yellow

Number of colasTo 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?Week 6

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.Week 12
