Mainline vs Double Mainline - Grow 6

I leave 2 nodes on the plant when the plant has about 5 nodes total. I normally keep the 2nd and 3rd node only. I don't count the coytledon as a node, so the first serrated leaves would be node 1. I chop that off and everything else except for the 2nd and 3rd.

I hope this answered your question!
 
Thanks eigholte! If you're doing it with a photoperiod, you can let it get super big in veg before you flip. Longer veg normally means bigger yield. Good luck!
 
Ok MC, up to here are. Then proceed with other tops? I think this technique you use is very similar to mine, but I do it differently. :cool:
 
Famine, I understand the last part of your comment, but not the first.

When you say "up to here are," do you mean you are caught up at this point?

When you say "proceed with other tops?" Are you referring to taking all the other nodes off the plant?

I'm sorry we have this language barrier, I just want to know what you are asking so I can properly answer.

I hope this doesn't come off as rude or anything. I'm not trying to be disrespectful
 
Excuse me I express myself badly and the translator does not help. I try to explain myself. In the mainilg you cut 3 times to have 8 tops. In your case do you always make 8 peaks or 16 peaks? But I do so, cut like you in the 5th interior, I bring in bloom and at 2 Flowering I delete all the weak leaves leaving only 6/8 buds.
 
I understand you now famine. I know the translators don't always work so well.

Once I cut everything except for the 2nd and 3rd node, I just let it grow out. I'm not really sure how many tops I end up having. I know mainlining for photoperiod plants is a little different than what I do. They tend to cut a few more times to get the 8 nodes you are talking about. I just let it all grow out once I only have my 2nd and 3rd nodes remaining.

Have a great day Famine!
