Main Lining in view?
Hi everyone, I’m introducing you my little DoubleBanana Kush, she’s juste at C+21, she didn’t start with the best conditions. My main question is, should I start main lining her, or I have to wait until the 5/6nodes? Thank you guys 🙏🏽 Keep growing 😎

Training?
How exactly should I go about this plant when it comes to training? I've not grown a fem in a while and I'm just looking for a full canopy (or as full as possible). I know about topping, fimming and tieing down the branches, but is there some other/better techniques?

As you can see, one of my plants is a few inches taller than the others. They've all been topped 3 times for 8 mains, but I'm wondering whether I should top the big plant 1 more time in an effort to achieve a more uniform canopy height before flipping to 12-12.

Do I Let these branches grow?
I am mainlining this plant, but I’m not sure if I let the branches grow off at the every node or snip them off so the focus goes to the main cola?

Any of the gurus of LST, main lining and other grow techiques willing to share an idea how to further improve the plants behavior. 🙂 I intend to further remove branches and leave only one at each of the nodes where there are two, make the canopy wide and airy. +root cut branches

Can I clone and mainline that bit I topped?
Hi guys, if I top my Amnesia, I mean, literally top them, Like straight cut at the 4th node, maybe? and leave the other 3/4 node above.. May I clone that topped bit? If so, since It should be growing like a normal plant as should be sprouting from the top, may I mainline that?

Trim "armpit" branches?
Growing mainline and wondering about trimming the new branches so bud growth is focused on main stalks. My last round I had one plant that I didn't trim at all-not a fun harvest. Other plants I kinda trimmed and went well. Should I get rid of them all? See last photo week 12.

How to reveg plants after preflowers by the end of april outdoors?
How big are the chances to bounce the plants back to veg after preflowers by the end of april and 14h of day length? Mostly cloudy weather, warm day temperatures (30c) and cooler nights (8c)in the old greenhouse simulated probably to much end of summer vibes.

Outdoor Canopy
I know the importance of keeping a uniform canopy height when mainlining indoors but does it matter outdoors? Is the sunlight strong and mobile enough to distribute the light evenly or should I do my best to keep the canopy level?
