Summer is super warm and not windy. I have a humidifier, i am foliar spraying her with aloe vera and liquid kelp but unfortunately the 3rd node leaves are already burnt. How can i make sure the leaves will still help her going through the mainlining training stress properly?

How far do you defoliate your mainlined autos?
A question to all you autoflower mainliners out there, how often do you defoliate, and to what extent? I trimmed the fan leaves off the bottom of the cola stems, should I take it higher?

Too many veggies (question re: length of veg time)?
I’ve had this Amherst Sour Diesel vegging for months. Is there such a thing as vegging for too long? Also, Miss Mia Wallace (as ive makes her) has had her share of issues from soils to nute issues and thrips. All seem to be under control. Will this impact yield?

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
I’m kind of new to training colas as in topping and mainlining. When main lining after I top I want to end up with 12 colas on each plant do I cut everything that isn’t growing on the main colas?

Split in mainline
Noticed this split at the base of Natasha's mainline. I don't think it's getting any bigger but I'm not sure. Should I cover the opening with tape to try and keep out water/bacteria? Ziptie around the stem to prevent further splitting?

Main-lining Guidance.
First time attempt at main-lining. This breed gave me huge colas on my last grow and I’d love to have an even canopy of them! Any suggestions, comments or even criticisms are welcomed. I’d like to know what I am doing right or wrong and know how to do it better. Thanks all!

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?

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 growmies

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?
