Nice looking plants I’m new also have some great people here with a lot of knowledge that will help you with your grow welcome to the forum

Hi @Gentry . Welcome to the forum. Looking pretty good. Love the symmetry.

welcome to ILGM.
Lots of folks can offer input. What would help is natural light on the plant for the pictures. Tell us about your grow and what you want out of it and we can offer help.

If you have a specific question we would ask that you cut and past a grow support service ticket avalable under the grow support catagory right at the forum landing page.

Looking good Grow Bro, my only advice is to take less leaves during the veg stage. I defoliate at preflower, day 21 and 42 of flower

[Fieldofdreams]

Manifolding?

[OldNailPounder]

Looking good @Gentry , Welcome to THE forum. You’re in a great place. I look forward seeing more posts.

Plants look great, carry on!

Im trying to mainline it

[Gentry]

Thanks for the feedback everyone

Mainlining is using only the 3rd node Grow Bro…you’ve got an extra node but a good thing in my opinion. I leave the 3rd and 4th nodes on a lot of my plants and finish with a fairly decent harvest

Nebulas Manifold, similar to Nug Buckets Mainline but one less topping

3rd and 4th nodes Quadline( modified manifold)

[Jdash860]

What does mainlining mean in plant terms? Looks great nice n healthy

[Jdash860]

Great looking plants! I sort of understand what you mean when mainlining from your photos but still a bit confused

I’m fairly new to growing this is my first plant I’m actually trying to do something proper And not just popping it in the soil outside after germination as I did as a kid lol.
Also, are you doing that with photo or auto flowers? Any info is appreciated

You’re doing great and have a healthy plant Growmie. The method that you have there looks like the 3rd and 4th side branches growing. I’ve used this technique often, here’s a picture of how I train them early. I switch to soft ties once those branches are long enough and tie back to the pots.

Plant looking great. Nice training also. Can’t wait to follow your grow. Welcome to the community. This group has experts from all over the world and are happy to help with anything that makes you a successful grower

[Jdash860]

Where do you top yours at? That looks like the 3rd if I’m not mistaken? So basically you take those 4 main branches where you topped it and just grow and train off of those? Beautiful plants btw . I was reading in another post a few people were talking about mainlining would that be considered mainlining the way you grew that one?

[DEEPDIVERDAVE]

Welcome.
So much to learn.
Have fun, we do.

Above the 4th and left the 3rd on the plants above. Smaller or slow growers will go above the 5th if I’m growing them with other taller plants. I remove all the growth below the 3rd node on every plant

[OGIncognito]

Not a mainline but Nebulas Mainifold. It’s one less topping. The other pics with 4 nodes left growing is commonly called a Quadline

[Gentry]

Should i tie down the main branches or just let it grow till flowering in a bout 2-4 week
