Hi I would only top each of them once as your be limited on space, Overall will give you alot of top colas and fill out your space nicely, Best of luck bro 🌱

I also thought that fimming is a good idea because then I would have 4 colas and I think I have enough space for it. What Is your opinion about that?

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!

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.

Mainlining worth it!
I used to think mainlining wasn’t worth it because of the longer veg time but, that seems to be the only downside. Theres way more advantages with this technique I’ve found, especially after my latest grow. What do you guys think about mainlining?

Cuando hacer corte apical en automáticas?
He visto que muchos cultivadores tienen buenos resultados junto al LST, por ende, cuándo debería hacer un corte apical a mis automáticas? Es realmente recomendable o debería dejar que los fenotipos muestren si genética original?

When is the absolute latest I can top a plant? I'd say I'm a week to 2 weeks maximum away from flowering on an outdoor grow.

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.
