Well plants looked droopy this morning I believe the lights were way too low 16 inches from plant to light , So I raised the 500 what to to about 26 inches and the smaller lights up to 23 inches
This should really help

Here’s a few shots of the group
I’ve already started to train them
I hooked up fill tube 1/2 pvc with a 90 degree bend
I’ll harvest herijuana today
Mac 1 in flower 2 days
Frankenstein got a bit of a potassium deficiency we’re working through
Good to see you have Caps Cut dialed in , aint she something when happy
She’s a joy to grow and her rewards are great
Ty again buddy
Made a bit of hash
The ball on the left was from good bud dried and cured
The other 2 from fresh shake and popcorn bud
And so far which is your favourite?
The one on the left lol
Hi all you outlaws and fellow OG’s
Well it now 10 days since I transferred the ladies into the Octopots both big and small
All seem to be growing and thriving nicely
A much better color on all
And even Frankenstein is looking better then ever
All plants are being shaped for mainline style
Up potted the 4 plants leftover from this grow
I’ll keep them small 3 moms and a banana loaf that didn’t keep up with the other
Well here’s a few pics
Mac 1 in flower 10 days on 12/12
She’s a beast 12 or 13 mains
White rhino @JohnnyPotseed
She’s got two spots 1 in a sm Octopot and a large as well
The one in the small Octopot already hit the reservoir and in getting big and taking shape quickly
The one in the big Octopot is a bit behind
I may just too her to see what both do
Frankenstein @JohnnyPotseed
She is finally loving my Octopots she’s taking shape
There they are

Man what a line up should be a great show.
Hey, your first paragraphs remind me the @Dequilo posting style, much easy to read , miss that man, there’s people here that have panic to press the Enter key . I am going to copy it from now on …
I believe mainlining is very productive but you never see how those plants really look like , it works for you so all good, they’re still beautiful indeed …
Funny you say that
Last run with most of these I let them go basically only super cropped a few
It was crazy in there
At least I feel more in control lol
But I did cut down on the quantity this run
Man, he had some epic outdoor grows!!
Damn @Papalag, it looks like you are setting up for a grand slam of a run! I am honored for my genetics to be a part of it!
I look forward to seeing it progress. Nobody does it like you. Much respect to you brother! Positive vibes…

Ty nuggz I’ll be running black apple next run
I like to run plants a few times to get to know them and see it they’re a good fit for my garden
Ty for stopping by
Mainlining or is it just lst gone wild
I’ve seen many threads on the subject lightattic
On ig wrote ebooks on it
Groweedeasy has a great tutorial on the subject
All are interesting
Now traditionally you top and remove everything below
Then GWE tells you that you can leave the 2 branches below the main and remove the rest
Both get great results and do take time to take shape
And everyone says that mainlining clone is difficult and you can’t get the same effect
Ok maybe maybe not
I say just bend the bitch and do it
Here’s Mac 1 from mature clone
I started to shape her at 5 nodes
She’s in flower now 11 days and has that shape but I left 4 branches below the main
1 I did cut as a clone
But the rest took shape very well !
Also I did not defoliate at all only removed the lower branches and left the leaves
Not topped just bent at the node
So this run
All my clones are taking shape early ( only 11 days since I transplanted them )
Some are lanky some are bushy and short but they all seem to be working out
So as you see I’ve got different plants that have over different shapes being trained in a modified mainline style
I believe I’ll achieve the same results in less time this way
So smoke em if you got em
Puff puff pass
Do you remove every other set of nodes ???
On the main branches I do every other node
On the lower I only leave the top 3 nodes
Instead of removing nodes I would hold steady the hoziontal node with thumb and finger and then with the other hand thumb finger hold vertical node and over twist it past hozinontal so comes back now horizontal
Phew
Do it when they thirsty so more pliable stems = less breakage , although no reall breakage with twisting : )
I’ve bent the lowers in most of the grows
It some time’s leave you with a lot of sights not reaching the canopy and it pays to skip a node to allow the branch much needed space
All in all it’s a mater of preference
Every time I do this it’s always something new
I like to see how they react to the crap I put them through lol
