Visual lesson 05
Mainlining & SCROG
Compare structured branch selection with screen-based canopy distribution as different ways to organize growing points, light exposure, and support rather than as universally superior yield formulas.

Mainlining & SCROG
Two different ways to organize growing points and canopy spaceStructured branch selection
Mainlining uses deliberate pruning and branch selection to build a repeated framework from chosen nodes.
