The Quadsquad Thread: A Community For Quadlining

Just like tomatoes, the stem will grow roots (advantageous roots) if planted deeper in soil but I've read that those roots are actually a sign of stress which makes sense since you are burying the crown deeper than it was before which forces the plant to restructure itself as @Thirvnrob mentioned.

Actually, that would be adventitious roots (damn auto correct! 😡

You posted that info a couple days before I planted two apple trees and a peach tree in my backyard & I applied that newly gleaned knowledge to that transplant. You keep talking. I’ll keep brewing coffee & learning!
 
Day 44 from sprout.

I don't think I'm going to do anymore training at this point. Most of the mains have extended to edge of pot and have formed a pretty even canopy. The GDP is a little taller in the top nodes but the branches have kind of grown funny with a twist so it's been iffy trying to train them.

First plant is Bubba Kush (i think took the training better)

Second is GDP, had some kinks with it stretching a lot but ive read it likes to be a tall plant so that could have been partly why.

Yall think these are ready to start letting them ststretch?

Man what an amazing thread here full of great information!!!

I see @g-one-three and @Ramblinrose1965 are on their first quads as well!!! Glad I am keeping a close eye on their journals :)

I was just poking around the tent to see what items I needed to gather to prep my first quad and decided I should have a good look over here. Glad I did!

More to come once my lady is ready to start her training!
 
Hey @Ke0ncp thanks for the tag. I've been hiding in the shadows over here for a bit. A great thread indeed. I have got some great ideas reading thru it.

I'm loving that light meter you recommended. Heres the girls

When quadlining isn't enough you have options :yahoo:

Maui Wowie was growing 3X as much as my other quadlined ladies :love:

I installed three bamboo poles and a wire hoop at ~30". I super cropped the three tallest colas to ~38" and tied all of the cola's to the wire hoop.

They grew another 10" along the hoop and 6" up o_O

I then pulled the three tallest into the middle with butchers twine and binder clips !

At that point the center was pretty well empty and available ;)

All of the girls height adjusted for an even canopy ;)

She doesn’t look too upset by the whole situation
 
Hey yall, got my journal up and going. Wasn't able to backlog everything I've documented but everything going forward will be. Here is my link.

Thread 'Bubba Kush / GDP Quadline - First Grow'

Good morning all! I've been meaning to get around to starting a journal to keep track of my progress but life has kept me busy. I don't have a ton of time to backlog all of my progress so I'll start from where I'm at and go from here. I've kept a detailed journal in a handy little app on my phone for my future use though so I've done well at documenting everything I've done.

For starters I'm currently at day 49 from sprout and the quadline has been a fun experience for me as a new grower. I chose to quadline based on height limitations and because I took a heavy interest in the training...

Hi all, I know this is somewhat strain dependent but what do you think is a good size space for quadlining? I plan on doing 9 plants in a 1.2m squared tent so around 40cm squared (around 16") per plant. I know people here will be biased towards quadlining but I'd appreciate some honest pros and cons of quadlining that number of plants in that space vs other methods. Thanks!
