If you're new to growing then I would suggest that you stick with topping and forget about mainlining for the time being. The reason is simple - get a sense for what a topped plant does after it's recovered and how it grows through the veg. and flower cycles. While you will get less uniform growth with topping than you would with mainlining, there is less recovery time (because mainlining is essentially 2 stages of topping) and obviously more branching. In combination with LST you can achieve very similar results on a shorter growth timeline. If however, you're not pressed for time and have some experience - mainlining the plant will add a couple extra weeks to veg. but pay huge dividends when it comes to your flowering cycle. The reasoning is simple - you'd be stripping all that lower growth below the topped node and effectively creating two large main branches that will act as the nutrient superhighways for the smaller branches of the plant that will grow above this node in the future. Explosive growth once the plant has matured and massive yields👍. I don't generally plug my grows but if you want examples of each then take a look at my Gorilla Glue diary (topped) vs. my Spliff Strawberry Diary (mainlined) and you'll see what I mean. Whatever you decide to do - good luck!👍

Hi buddy wait 1 week about so I always do it after 10-14 days switching to bloom I remove the bottom shoots that are too dark or too far down :-)

Hi your ph on earth fits I would even go down to 6.0 - 6.2 :-) but how high is your ec? otherwise nobody will be able to help you, and we also need their watering behavior :-)
