Went shopping for new luggage and a swimsuit today. My sister will be here this afternoon so I can start showing her what needs to be done in the garden. The trellis isn't nearly as filled as I was hoping it would be by this point, not sure how I feel about having her tuck and train. Hopefully it fills out by Thursday. I'm stressing tf out that I'm forgetting about something... I thought vacations were supposed to be relaxing.
No, that's why I hate them. You always forget something crucial.

Get a roll of green painters tape , n tell her to keep it close by . If any brake or kink , wrap the area like a little cast .
I get in a rush n brake branches all the time,
If you forget about the tape , the plant has no problem busting a single or double wrap.

I've been procrastinating and just started getting ready today.
Did a test run and there's no way in hell I can fit clothes for 9 days and nights into a single suitcase and carry on bag, so I need to go buy another suitcase. I've already wrapped and packed my gift and card so I'm sure I have the most important thing. At least this trip is in the US so I can buy anything I've forgotten locally. A small package from Tiffany arrived yesterday and nothing more was said about it, I think that's my gift 
Thank you for the tip. Can you do this in flower? I've just over a week in and stretch has been minimal. This pic was taken yesterday morning.

Ya, you can do it any time.
I’ll add that if it’s a brake (air able to enter)
At a node , remove the bud site , to get a good seal or the air will cause a loss of prime to the “pump” / branch .

Set up video chat with her, if need be she can show you what she thinks is wrong, that way it wont be as bad in your imagination and you still have control.
Tiffany the store? Nice either way.

Perfect! I've been so careful this being my first time doing a scrog. I haven't broken a single limb yet. Those pics are an awesome illustration. I really appreciate you doing that to your plants so I can show her what to do.
I think I need a bigger suitcase.
We'll be facetiming so I can help as much as I can and see my dog. Yes it's the Tiffany store, I love going in and browsing. I rarely ever buy anything. You wouldn't believe how much self control is needed to not go snooping to find out what it is.

lol She enlisted herself when I told her that I'm starting the next batch when I get back. I've given her and her husband a few ounces so they have a vested interest. Mom isn't on the need to know list.Dad - Maintenance man.

On my last grow a plant split in 2 down the center. A good 1". Gorilla tape to the rescue. Worked nice it still offered up 1/4 lb.
The odd thing is at harvest I found that a second plant had split. Bad. Not knowing before harvest there was no way to tell it needed attention.
The second plant offered up very near 1/4 lb.
Neither plant ever showed visible signs apart from the split itself. Limb nor leaf droop either.
I learn something new every time. This time I learned that espalier is NOT the technique to train MJ.
While it can produce the added time is not worth the investment and the weight of the limbs causes issues..
