First Time Manifolding/Mainlining

[shaganja]

are you alternating nodes?

i think i kept one and three, and usually cut two off, but i think i kept the top of two and chopped the bottom of two. so yes, i usually do! lol

Ahh wow I thought there was a cool trick up your sleeve HA but obviously it was as she looks awesome. The instructions for my light reccomend removing the plants lol now I see first hand it CAN happen

you can follow along here... I got all the help I needed out of this, and too much to update both LMAO

Jags Smart Closet Submission

I spend so much time here anyways its only naturaly to try to keep a log of my progress here. I decided that tents were taking up too much space for me, and I wanted to make the best out of what I had, so I decided to convert my closet. I ordered some Diamond Film to line the walls on the...

My pictures suck. First time manifolding is looking good. I'm doing 3 nodes for the space later in grow

They recover faster if you remove all growth below the cut. You can use those cuts to sex a plant if you don't already know it's sex.

Im interested in following this. Let me know what your harvest is in comparison to a grow without mainlining.

I have a harvest in around 2 weeks that I didnt top or train at all... Then another 2 weeks or so after that there are 2 plants I just topped once and trained. Then this girl after that... I will be sure to remember to upload this thread.

Following along to learn. Thank you all!

Ive never mainlined yet. But I am going to do the same training on a couple or all of my plants. I haven't decided yet. Looks like you are on the right track. I am waiting on a couple more nodes. I am going to top when I have 5 nodes on them. This is my first attempt at growing weed, well in the last 3 decades lol

Looks good !

These are the Lemon Shining Silver Haze and the Sour Diesel x Afghan that I started the thread off with..: day 12 of flower. Hard to get good shots of the side of the canopy. But you can see they are nice and full... really starting to stretch out now

I don't manifold but I do top and top and top This Sweet tooth is almost 6 weeks old it has around 60 tops already its 14" tall. She will be in veg another 6 weeks until I have room in flower room. This will be the most topping of any plant I've grown. I should be able to top them once or twice more 100 + tops should be an interesting plant.

Haven't repoted yet. Have time to waste.
Till these finish.
Going traditional to Main lining

Another topping and defoliation for the gorilla candy... but I did not clean the entire plant this time, I left a set of lower nodes I want to see how they grow out.

interesting! the sticks to keep em straight! nice!!

I didnt catch that at first... I like that idea.

Keep them growing where you want.
Giving space for bud's to grow out
I am looking to see a more even canopy
Much lower in box. So there is more space above the lights. Witch will lower the lights on temperature of room for summer operating (deep south)

I've found (you have to) when you top. The plant sends All its energy to stemming. Lower ones pick up speed. That's energy waste if we are trying to grow all tops. That's not a criticism. Keep the parts you want to grow out. Moving faster. Keep manifold large for later in flower. (Is my thinking)
Your plants lookin tasty.

I have a question about replanting a plant that you broke one of the manifolds vert early on in training. I'm left with one side growing out with several bud sites now and thought about planting outside. Can I bury alot of the bare stalk without it rotting like a tomato plant? Or do I have to replant at same depth at this stage of growth?

Put in a vase
Cut it clean
Put in water so stalk is 1 in deep.
Wait till roots start. 2 to 3 weeks .
