8 cola MainLined Plant(done right) should be apx 28'’x28’’ round-apx 8 week veg time from rooted clone; 4 cola-apx 18’’x18’’ round-apx 5 week veg time from rooted clone... id do 4x8 cola plants, you’ll have plenty air movement and plenty of room to get into each cola and support it, if need be!!! or 9x4 cola plants; just my opinion...this is all indoor talk...outdoor is a whole different animal!
I start from seed. 9 weeks veg enough for a 8 cola plant?

How many tops tho java(4 or 8? any pics showing this madness of tops in a 4x4? :weed:
Never a 3 X 3 array of 8-MLed tops.

72 colas...wow, that would be crowded.

I did get 36 doing a SOG but that is only half way there.

No, I am consistently growing new, and different things, and
so my space is not that well filled. I do usually go for 8 when
I am MLing a plant though.

Nuggs isn't really into giving days. He goes until they look right. I let plants get to the explosive growth stage before I top the first time and then I let the second set grow out a couple nodes before topping and the same for the next. Once I have 8 tops with 3 nodes I begin to flower. This is also a good time to decide how much side growth you want to keep.

You will get better and better at reading what your strain does and doesn't like. Each time you will get better results. It seems like it takes more work and more time. However, when you have eight beautiful colas with no popcorn and no mold, you will be very happy!

There is no definite day count, I am 4 weeks into veg and just made my first cut. Watching my plants and their growth I should be going into flower within the next two to four weeks.
My last grow I over pruned and I vegged way to long.
