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

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

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.

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!

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?

Should i stop main lining 3?
So i'm a newbie and i snapped the stem on main lining. I tapped but left it bent. My reasoning is that i don't think i will be able to bend it if it grows more. 4 is bendy and i went even maybe too much on it. 3 is too thick already. Should i give up mainlining 3?

Mainline inconsistency
I started mainlining my plant and one of the main branches stopped growing completely :s Anyone seen this before? I’ll probably have to top her a few more times to make up for it.

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?

When to mainline
I want to try main-lining with this plant, when should it best be snipped at the first noad, do I wait for a few noads or do I cut it as soon as possible because of its short life cycle?

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?

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!
