Do what you want. You can veg forever.I know they recommend only 8 colas on indoor growing but I decided to go with 16. Are they concerned about growth time or lighting with 16????
Im curious to see how the mainlines catch up to the LST myself. Right now they are lagging. Unfortunately I am doing all different strains so I can't truly compare yields.I was under the impression that 16 was the golden number and any more would actually hinder growth.
That was from an artical on grow weed easy quoting nug bucket, who I guess has been credited with the tech.
Don't quote me on that tjo as I'm still on my first try mainlining and only just made my second cuts.
I've mainline 2 skunk 1s in identical conditions one I stripped all the lower growth from and the other I left all the growth on just took the tops.
There both identical in terms of speed so far I only plan on doing 8 colas but the plant with the growth still actually has 8 even tops due to the lst aspect.
Now I wonder if mainlining is even more effective than just lst only as when I grow my strait lst plants in circles around the bucket I thought to make all the branches the mains was the idea? We Will see but already with strait lst no topping my plants would way farther along than this.
Looks very cool tho

Only difference is topping can be done on any node stem.I from what I've read mind ya was under the impression that the idea was more consistent quality bud, easier for canopy management.
It was explained that the mainlining tech forces the plant grow colas equally far from the root system. In such they will all get the same amount of nutrients, and attention from the plant truly making them all top colas.
very little of the larfy buds.
In reality without that assumed science this is just topping and lst combined.
That's the impression I got from multiple articals I've since read including the guy who named it mainlining Nug Buckets
The pictures I posted are grape dios seeds started 1.7.20 so about 14 weeks old. They take a while to recover 3 weeks per cut on average.I from what I've read mind ya was under the impression that the idea was more consistent quality bud, easier for canopy management.

Think about it...when you buy a sac what do you do? Pull out the fattest nugz and marvel at them! HA! I'm going to blaze some of this bad mug up! Well...that's what I do hahaha! Smoke the rest with ur buddies and save that puppy for yourself! If you can make your plant produce mostly those nugz wouldn't you want to give it a try? I'm not growing to sell but for a fun journey to see what I can grow. For me me me!

Nice lookin thick stem on your plant.Chemdog mainlined from seed.
That's what Dj's thread says. I see it too.Well not to hijack jags thread but, yesterday my 2 skunks looked fairly even in growth speed. Comparing the growth with leaving all lower branching on or removing.
So today as im looking at them, I can clearly see now the skunk I took all lower vegetation off of is actually growing more robustly.
It's not enough proof or done very scientifically but there might be something to removing the lower growth for plant concentration on the tops.
Here some pics the skunk in orange pot is stripped of lower growth and the grey pot has the growth left on it.
Hope you can see the difference in my cell phone pics
