The Main-Lining Thread

Perfect. Thanks Mohican!

I eventually top at the second node but i let the third nodes leaves stay on just for some extra help as u will see in the pic. As soon as the branching from the second node gets to where i want it i cut the third node leaving the second and first nodes of the plant. The branching from the first node i use for clones. Also if u notice i already topped at the first node of what will soon be the main branches of the plant.

 

[KushCanuck]

Let it grow to 6 or 7 true nodes then top above the second true node. Use the first set of branches on the first true node as clones later when the growth starts to explode.

Bind down the two mains and when they are starting to grow well (not too long) top them for two mains on each side for a total of four mains.

Spread the two mains on each side apart to for an H shape (the manifold). When these have recovered, and they start growing top them for a total of 8 mains.

Depending on the stretchiness of your strain, you can continue topping and binding to the tomato ring until you are ready to flower (16, 32, 64...).

By arranging and bending the faster mains, you can even out the growth and create a perfect and short canopy.

Beautiful Mo, here`s a pic by pic,

From available node sets, to the initial top and shuck, tie down, top, wait for response. Final pic actually has 5 heads instead of the 4 you should have because this broad`s a mutant, topped it to keep it that way for documentation. Hope this helps

Thanks for the props everyone. Much appreciated, and it makes my day to see you guys stoked. Can't wait til the HOLIDAY!

I am also amazed....at the uniformity achieved etc etc any reasons you think of this main-lining couldn't be used with aero-ponics

 

[Mohican]

Mainlining is about the stems of the plant. The roots can be grown in any way you like as long as they are happy and healthy
