Mainline with Nebulas method for 10 tops
Has anyone kept the second top node so you end up with 10 tops? ( Cutting off the bottom on the second node) How did it work out? Are there any drawbacks except space? Would it be an uneven split of nutrients decreasing the yield on the 8 main tops?

More training now? or leave her longer?
I've attached image from 7 days after defoliation and more LST and what she grew to today. Quite bushy, should I defoliate/tuck again so more light gets to lower branches? only do some more lst? more lst and defoliation? or leave her for now and let her grow? 35 days from seed

Pruning????
Hello everyone. I am growing for the second time and this time I am growing 10 gorilla cookies Auto It is the 7th week. They appear generally healthy, but is it too early to try lollipoping? Also, if I do lollipoping, will any other pruning be necessary?

Main-Lining: cleanup center of plant and wait or stop cutting and switch to 12:12?
I am not sure if I should remove the top 4 small branches that are growing up on the second picture... As you can see, I used those green rubber-coated wires to bind down the main branches. But on both sides of the stem - 2 small branches are shooting upwards: keep or cut?

Mainlining not so symmetrical?
I started my first indoor grow off with mainlining and 2 of my branches are growing nodes in a staggered formation, whereas the other 2 are growing symmetrical nodes. Does anyone know why this is happening? It’s grown from seed.

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.

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!

Overenthusiastic Supercrop
Think I overdid it with the supercropping. The worst branches hang below 90° but the growth seems healthy, everything turned up towards the sun the next day. I changed the worst so they're supported and less than 90°. Is there more I can do? A way to avoid splitting the skin ?

Applying main-lining on Hulkberry automatic strain.
Is it safe? Or, since the lifetime of the plant is so short, better to not even think about it.
