Great video nugs, thanks a lot. Im working mainly with clones and applying mainlining a little at a time, trying to get it right.

Hey what's up? Sorry I haven't posted in a while, been mostly spending my time at another site. Here is the skunk at around 3 weeks of flower...it's hard to tell but she does have 8 tops, just one is shorter than the others for some reason. Though she isn't entirely symmetrical, I think she really thrived under this grow style and I can't wait to perfect it and try it on the next batch of plants. 2 gallon smart pot, organic nutes, aerated water, and 400w hps:

It's all good. Sometimes ya gotta hear something a few times for it to sink in.
That video got me thinking about ways to beef up my branches... I know the mainlining will help by "leveling the playing field" as it were, and giving equal resources to all the branches... But what else can we do?
I know super cropping fattens stems, so that'll help. I've also used silica in the past, but I haven't found (or even looked for) an organic Si source. I know having branches swaying in the breeze is critical, too. Anything else we can do? No one likes a floppy bush....

I thought you were great...you were very easy to understand and didn't realize how large of a role circulation plays in plant growth. The results speak for themselves...thanks for taking the time to post and teaching me something newi just watched the last ML vid....man i was redundant...i apologize....i am still getting used to talking to myself in the cam....

im going to try kushmans snapping technique to get bigger happier stems and hopefully sturdier stems on my ogs next run to see if i can improve yield. im excited to combine my two favorite methods i love your vids nugs, full of information we are all hungry for instead of the same old how to videos we have seen a million times packaged in a different way. keep them coming bud!!! thanks for all the hard work you have put into the documentation of mainlining

I liked the video! Except don't you EVER post another video again unless its in HD quality. loli just watched the last ML vid....man i was redundant...i apologize....i am still getting used to talking to myself in the cam....

I also really wish I could grow some monsters outdoors. Its difficult to veg as long as you like to when growing indoors and trying to juggle multiple strains with limited space.
You're doing it well nugz. "I fuckin' love this shit." haha

holy f**K that's so frosty. Even some of the water leaves too. That trim will make some bommy bubbly hash. The buds look dank too

Great video man, really simplifies the purpose of mainlining. Hearing the info a few times helps to lock it in the ol' steel trap upstairs anyway.i just watched the last ML vid....man i was redundant...i apologize....i am still getting used to talking to myself in the cam....

Here is the thing about Mainlining.....it is a concept first and foremost...it is not and exact process that has to be done exactly like the way i do it.....a grower does not need to take it to the OCA(obsessive/cumpulsive advantage) level that i do to reap the benifits Mainlining can offer.......it is also something that takes time to get good at, like anything else, one can't expect to become an expert at something the very first time around.......but the most important thing to realize, is that it is a "front-loaded" process, that when applied to a "perpetual" scene, only has to be invested in at the front end of the cycle as a whole once....once it becomes part of the cycle, it does not change the yield schedule at the back end of the grow, dig?....it is a one time investment of time in the beginning of the perpetual......growers can also use the concept of Mainlining at varying degrees, like Subcool and Dioxide, using the knowledge and customizing it to fit their individual scenes...(something all top-tier growers do).....constant engineering.........remember, all Mainlining is, is building a plant off of a single node, and giving some attention to building thick diameter stems with a high VCSA (vascular cambium surface area) it matters little how a grower achieves that.......in my mind, canopy management is so very important if one strives for a bountiful harvest....as far as Mainlining in small spaces....that is where it really shines......much love, nugs
