This girl had some good growth this week, but the side branches just haven't been growing out and she can go into flower at any time now. So I decided to take the gamble and top her to try and force some growth from those side shoots before the stretch.
I may have already stunted her a bit with the transplant and early lst, but she has been recovering. So best case scenario now is that she recovers and bushes nicely before flower sets in. Worst case scenario I've ruined this plant and I have first hand experience in some good lessons on what not to do and that I'll never do again.
Here's hoping for the best case scenario :)
Also growing Somango XXL outdoor (3 plants) so keen to follow your progress. My two bigger XXL's are 8 weeks into veg & stretching big time. They love topping & some LST & will keep you busy defoliating in your grow. Current heights of my 2 biggies are around 20" but with topping & LST is not a true reflection on growth. Big & bushy with big fan leaves. Good luck mate ๐๐ป
