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

Is this normal growth for a mail-lined plant?
I mainlined 8 colas on both plants. Each one has a small stem growing at the beginning of each cola. Is that normal growth for a main-line? I thought at this stage it would be just 8 long colas. Should I remove them or just leave them?

Training?
How exactly should I go about this plant when it comes to training? I've not grown a fem in a while and I'm just looking for a full canopy (or as full as possible). I know about topping, fimming and tieing down the branches, but is there some other/better techniques?

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.

Flower Stretch and Mainlining
Flower Stretch Question When I flip to flower, she will stretch and about double in size. Does this include all the bare growth I have cleared off during toppings? ie, if the stalk at the bottom is 12" from the bottom to the start of the last topping, does that 12" count in?

If i wanted to lollipop this, how much should i take off? - lollipopping, scrog
When and how much should i take off? - Considering she is not very tall, but very dense. She has been defoliated quite heavily, both before and during flower stretch but i feel like she needs more. 6 week veg - 11 days since switching to 12/12 Sage n' sour fem in 12L coco 50/50

Auto Flower Main Lining
When growing Auto flowers, Will main-lining delay flowering or will it continue to flower at the same rate regardless? I am experimenting with trying a 4 way Main line with my 28 day auto. I hope it grows out more before it kicks into flowering. no signs of pistils.

My question is concerning the use of LST, and it's correlation to longer than usual harvest times. It seems all the growers I follow whom train/defoliate their plants consistently harvest as much as 6 weeks later than what the breeder calls for. Any thoughts?

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?

Question about mainlining
Im getting ready for the outdoor season..planing to mainline a stativa strain+indica strain. My question is: when you have already done your last topping and you're now letting your plant grow out, do you cut off the side branches growing out from the mains or do you leave them?
