Question on mainlining/nugbucket

[bob_ross]

So I been trying learn mainlining and somehow ended up with 12 tops and it’s going great. But now I’m confused on if I am supposed delete all the new shoots that develops. Or just keep it and prune the fan leaves. I did do some supercropping on the one tops that was growing tall but that cause the new shoots to shoot up and know it is about size of a new top.

No one?

Very nice, afaik you just grow to your chosen height and then flower from there

"Main-Lining" definition: a form of training and managing canopy that builds a "hub" off of a single node and creates a "manifold" for equal energy distribution from the root mass to the growing tops.

Well that last picture..... I would veg for a few more days and then flip to flower. I wouldnt be removing any more nodes personally.

I'm actually starting some now but will be a while and wondering if after harvest we can just reveg and get another load of colas

check out monstercropping

My bad always thought monstercropping was taking cuts during flowering, damn fb growers messed my head up

Its actually in the first week of flower (i was worried about the strech). I looked at the guide and nugbucket had 8 straights mains..no offshoots etc. Im trying to generate 0 pop corn buds and all hard nugs..haha

You will end up removing nodes later, the idea was to top and remove everything below the new growth tips. I would flip soon after you have your desired tops.

You can reveg it, but it takes a long time. And it'll be crazy looking, like a supercropped plant.

Treat each top as if they were individual plants, because that’s how they will grow.

That is what monstercropping is. Cloning a flowering plant.

Sorry. Bear with me. I am a beginner. So wouldn't it create more offshoots during flower stretch. Do i delete them or keep them?

Up to you, a lot will be deleted, wait until it’s done stretching and go at it, make your sticks you desire. I took branches threw right up till last night, 4 months in. I would try and get any strong branch that wants to produce and hit the canopy go, not just the mains.

I just cut some tops and netted the lowers on my 16 top and now I’m letting it go longer.

Monstercropping can also be done with a re-vegged plant as well I'm pretty sure , the concept is the same thing, it is re-veg

Thank you. Makes sense.

I got my 16 colas and flipped the next day. This is my first mainlining of photos.
