Thanks, again. Will do. I think it will work great if I pull it off. With my limited height there will be a lot of bonsai work - but I think the mainlining technique will definitely increase my yield. This is my first grow so each day I'm learning something new. I wish I had this same 'eager to learn' attitude when I was in school.

I did have the same "eager to learn" attitude when I was in school, but it wasn't to learn things in school.....I spent all my time from Freshman year until now learning anything and everything I can about growing marijuana! LMAO

Nice job! You'll get the next one perfect. I'm topping my first girl Sunday or Monday night. The 2nd true node is almost ready. Did you do any cloning? I'm going to try taking clones off the 1st node - don't really have room to raise clones but want to try it anyway.

I took a clone off her about a month ago...It got infested with spidermites.... We saved her by accidently freezing her outside at night. the next morn she was wilty but alive and mites were gone!View attachment 2466546

Removing fans leaves is never really a good idea, since those are the power houses for the plant. I always just let my plant decide when it wants to kill off fan leaves then pluck em when they are starting to shrivel.

So r u feeding ur girls super soil or are the on a feeding schedual plus whixh r u using.....ur plants look amazing.... Ive been growing the "Secret of The West Coast Master" 1 plant 15 gal - 2 nodes with 4 main branches each branch having 16 tops giving me 64 tops per plant per 4x4 space avg a pound dry. However the size of the 16 colas on urs r much larger. Im guessing doing ur tek w 4 plants would get me really close to 2 lbs per 4x4.....

I think I will leave these two fan leaves on. I'll just make sure the 2 main stems of the hub grow where I want them and let the fan leaves hang out where they are. In hindsight, I should have just left the fan leaves on the 1st node after taking the clones.
