Final Lst,, manifolds are fully built, Jack herer has 15 tops at the moment, Space Kitties has 8 tops,
got about 2 more weeks to veg , i am shooting for a 6 week veg with this grow, the root development in the res is going nuts, hopefully this pays of with better colas on the top side during flower,,

I'd like to say they look good... but it kind of looks like you are trying to get them to tell you where they buried the treasure... have they talked yet? have you tried a cattle prod? 
On the other hand, they look very much like pictures I've seen from seasoned mainliners whose plants turned out to be awesome! So as torturous as it might appear, I think you're doing it right!

Have you tried leaving more of the lower growth on during mainlining in the past? I have never been brave enough to take that much off of the bottom, I feel like the plant can use those leaves for photosynthesis and nutrient reserves late in flowering. Especially when you are wacking the top, I am just curious on your thoughts about not taking so much from the bottom. I understand it is easier to work with and once the top is filled in, there won't be much penetration down there anyway.

Looking great Tim! My first mainlined plant split at that initial cut and I had to duck tape it together lol. I found Gnat nix works great in soil to stop those pesky fungus gnats.
