Just a few days ago I decided to top these ladies. I usually allow about 5-7 days for recovery and then I will start LST.
I’ll begin by bending the main stalk down to its side and tie it to the edge of the fabric pot. I do this so that the lower growth can grow up more and even out with the top of the main stalk of the plant as it finishes recovery from being topped.
I noticed some yellowing and a slower growth so I upped my nutrients, especially the flora gro. The plants looked incredibly better within a few hours!
