The Main-Lining Thread

The way I understand it is that you take off their bottom node. Leave the 2nd node for clones and cut off right above the 3rd node. This is all done when they are about 5 nodes high. Am I correct in all of this?

Well i tried posting last night but my internet took a shit:wall:Here are a few of my mainline projects ,but before i do i should explain they are not getting the best attention as i just moved to my new place and just now got a proper grow room:-P.but first few pics are for the gearheads out there i call it tri-power she's a104_3370.jpg104_3371.jpg104_3368.jpg104_3378.jpg Dinafem diesel. talked about this earlier in the other thread.It sprouts 3 heads when topped this is a clone and she kept the trait,so happy about that!.next pics will be a few i have been working on from clone which is proving to be a true PITA! And why not a few of the new room,notice the door nugs looking forward to hanging one of your centerfolds up there!104_3357.jpg104_3359.jpg

I've looked and read this thread a lot, but I never noticed that the candle was on top of one of your crazy stalks. Now that's stability/symmetry. MMMP All the way!

sure, as long as its old enough to take a viable clone.....you can main-line anything......pre-98 generally works better in sog, and may not have enough secondary branching/stretch to fill an indoor scrog.....unless you are growing a giant globe under the sun.

So use the top 2 nodes and cut the rest off? They are under a MH on a 20/4 schedual right now and they have about 1/4 inch in between each node lol...

So I guess Mainlining Pre 98 bubba is out of question?
Oh and just to clarify shit up, sog is basically the same as scorg only with more plants?How many would you recommend for 60cm lnng about 50cmwide?2?And do I top in sog or scorg?if yes when would be the best time?

Don't worry, the process timetable confused the crap out of me also. I went back through hundreds of posts to try and re-create the order of events.

SOG is sea of green....meaning square (generally) 1, 2, or 3 gal pots side by side to fill a footprint......the plants are generally "single- cola dominant" and are flowered untopped after a real short veg......kept short....one dominant cola.....so your indica/kush dom. phenos that exibit single cola dominance are going to work the best for this system.....you don't want a whole lot of secondary branching getting in the way that many sativa dom. hybrids, and sativas express.....they are much better suited for scrog, which is totally different......here the plants are vegged longer, topped heavily, or better yet "main-lined", and trained to systematically fill a screen, that separates the colas evenly, and provides support against bud-flop.....opposite ends of the spectrum.....hope that makes sence....i am heavily medicated today...back is out....nugs

Sorry to hear that Nugs. Maybe I can help. Mine would go out all the time until one time I could feel it getting ready to go and I backed myself up to a door jam and reached back and pulled on the moulding on each side of the jam while I pushed my spine as flat as possible against the jam. I start with my neck and roll my spine flat against the jam working my way down. I can actually feel it realign my vertebra and ribs. I have not had my back out in ten years (knock on wood).

Get well soon!
