main-line topping ******best method******

[ssteely71]

Just want to show off another small mainlined Lifesaver. It has 4 mains and a small 5th.

Some strains sure react better to mainlining than others. Another thing I do is if a single cola is trying to outgrow the others is give the tip of the cola a hard pinch. Here is the main cola on the above plant at week 6 it was pinched at week 2. It just swelled.

holy freakin crap al where the hell have I been I do very similar thing in sog and scrog but always felt there was a better way ell here the hell it is going to be using this one on a bunch of stuff including tons of tomato veggies as I do the straight stem on a string method this could quadruple my end result in my green house

I Hear ya though..I figure they will need some support to keep from busting

Wrap the break in duct tape. It will repair itself. You will see a leaf or two above the break yellow out as the plant uses them for energy untill the break seals. Best of luck.

Yes I have trained one main around the rim of a pot letting the branches go vertical. Worked out just fine. Best of luck.

Thanx for taking your time to post this. I have always gone to 4 tops as a habit, however, I am on this 8 or 16 top shit...it does seem to be some work in the early stage but that is just more time in my drawers in the "green" room...

Ok Farm I have a question? I let mine dry for 2 days them put them in the Freezer last week in a shallow card board box open no lid only about 2" high The problem is that it has my fridge funked up with the fpog og and the bread and tortillas taste like bud:wtf:. Is this normal? I know its working all the meat is frozen and there is no frost in the fridge. Everything works fine, I do know that it has just one setting because I turned it down to freeze more and all the drinks in the fridge froze.
