The Quadsquad Thread: A Community For Quadlining

This thread has totally changed my plans for my first grow. Im glad I stumbled across it! Simple, elegant and good results.

I'm still getting my space set up and I have to build my lights yet but I hope to get started in a couple of weeks.

Heck yeah! Me too, I'm glad I found this thread. So far it has been a positive experience for me and i think i will continue doing quadlining. What kinda lights are you building? Have a journal going? If so, add it to your signature so others can follow :)

Here's a quick update on one of my quadlines. They all are about to start flower this weekend after installing new bulbs.

I just harvested my first grow (quadlined) yesterday. With very few exceptions, I plan to quadline ALL my grows for the foreseeable future. I made a few mistakes along the way. In addition to the fantastic info available in this thread, you should also learn what NOT to do. Check out my first grow journal HERE to see the mistakes I made along the way so you don't accidentally do what I did. What should have been an estimated 3-5 ounce yield end up being about a 1.25 ounce (estimated weight once dried and cured) yield.

I'm just putting together a couple of qb96s. Two of them are about perfect for my 2x4 tent. It's been slow coming together.... mostly a money thing. It's a big investment that I'm very lucky to have a wife that supports me in this.

I don't have a journal yet but if I put one together I'll do just that. Thanks!
 
I have two qb96s from hlg. Finally got a driver for them. Now I just have to build a frame for them and get them wired up.
I've got to dissemble my whole grow as the landlord is making an inspection of the property.:eek:
 
As if that ain't bad enough,I snapped a main top branch .last night. Just starting to see how rapidly this technique deploys itself. My first attempt and straight away I'm v.aware of watering seedlings and the resulting height of the plant. I'll have leggy quadlined first effort... Unless I have to bin them due to the landlords agents doing up the kitchen and bathroom. .
 
little update on the quads, not far off now.
rooms pretty full, taken last night
little subs smelling good funky little thing

ffs. they are a pain in the arse ifbleaf. can you hold them somewhere temporary. outside in back garden till inspection done. ?. I have had this so many times too but been fortunate with the timings and only ever during early veg. good luck mate

just keep pinning them back down until flip mate. keeps leggy girls in check. Any snaps will be replaced by secondaries soon enough. They fill the gaps well with this method
 
Top once after at least the 5th node down to and leaving the 4th. Strip the bottom 2 and pull the 2 nodes that you have left flat. This doesn't have to be done all at once. I see too many people try to do it all at once and end up with breaking limbs. Take a few days to get them flat. Let the center sprouts grow up and flip.
excellent summary Derby.
 
cheers guys!!
getting close to the end now!!
have a few snaps from last day or so
has been hottttt here again though, hitting 35c in thhe tent at times, the alaskan has had a little strop at it

getting a bit wild, ive dimmed the lights through the heatwave, and the bubblegum suffered a little led light bleach in a couple spots, the woes of 120cm headroom ehhhhhh
i wonder if i might be better to stick with smaller plants in 10l fabric pots than the 30l rolled down to make a shallower 20l pot.

subs is in a 10l

Yeah thanks. I've seen some of my badly nutured plants shooting like 8 or more branches all trying to fill out in bud and have been looking at them and wondering how I can get the right kind of training technique to maximize on this basic seeming? trait!
