Mainlining question

Mainlining question

For all who are tuned in and are familiar with mainlining, my question is 8 or 16 colas?

That sounds like a great idea to help control a stretchy variety! I think 8 would be good to fill each space, but if it's ever a question, try half of each then you'll know!

I'm excited, how are those beans doin,lol

It looks like one of the 12 has germinated as of this morning. I expect the rest to do the same today or tomorrow.

might that not depend on the cultivar? i don't practice it myself

I tried it once and I find 8 colas is a great deal between time you need and the final result. At least for me it takes way too long to get 16 colas mainlined.

I got the SJ DR 2.5 5x5. Thanks for the recommendation, I think I'll have to add them in 1 by 1

Yeah, 3. Hopefully it's the SJ, orca tent?


You like the SJ tents for their reflectivity characteristics?

Picture update! Popping seeds on Sunday! I'll post up pics when they sprout.

Still a little cluttered and I'm putting Orca on the floor, but it's finally time to go!

I'm sure it does. I'm wondering about how the malawi will do with this method.

Cool. I was leaning towards 8 for precisely that reason.

..patience padawan.....patience........

And now 8 have popped. Only need one more for a full run!

On this site they say the difference between 8 and sixteen was not that much.

"......so after all the bud is gone.....and there was a lot of it!......"8 heads" yielded 6.67 zips with zero larf on a 32 inch plant, "16 heads" yielded 7.31 zips with zero larf on a 27 inch plant!!!!...".

Thanks Ichabod! I've read that site, but I must've missed that!

Yep, fems.

One thing to keep in mind about the link I posted. And that is it is done in soil and not hydro like your room. You could get way different results because you dont need to grow as many roots to get the nutrients like soil needs.

good point...also he has a few "tricks" he is running so it's really not comparing "apples to apples" right?
