did you read through the thread from the beginning?;-) this is called "main-lining" brother....it is an step-daughter of bonzai.......it is about building stem structure to grow big self-supporting rock hard donkey-dicked colas.....some body was caught sleeeeeeeping...:sleep:
I understand what you are doing but how do you keep you node spacing so tight. And your plants barely stretch.

sorry bro, caught me in a ball-busting mood, you just happen to be there.......the secret is a t-5 unit placed about 4-5 inches above the tops at all times through veg..sometimes they get so tight, i don't have enough room to make the bends! so i have to put them in the shade for a few days to stretch them out a bit........love me my t-5's
 
<< always been a believer when it comes to t5's
i started with them and wont go without'em
was looking at the 4 bulb t5's might have to upgrade

Nice man! Things are looking awesome!!! I've got to get some tomato cages... :D they'll probably work as better tie down points versus the broken skewers I have been using lol

so at this point you have trimmed the lower nodes off your 8 head? BD is at 10 days, super bushy down low. trying to figure out when to start removal.

hey bro, see if you can wait till day 20, to prune understory.....i did mine at day 11 mostly because i forgot to take clones for a friend, and 8 heads was the last option....plus my flower room is packed, i needed any extra ventilation i can get....good luck.

bro, if you only heard a little crack, you will be fine, i have had a storm tear up one of my plants, she split all the way down the trunk to the ground like a pealed banana, layed her out flat, like she was gone.....i picked her back up, ace bandaged her together, and in a few days she was brand new....folks have to remember that this is one hell of a tough plant! worry not my brother.

i have not showed this technique yet, but i have intentionally done exactly that as a bonzai move.....split and braced the trunk to spread her out......like when a doctor will break a bone, so it heals in an intentional manner...
