Generally you top at the 3rd or 5th but it's really a personal choice. I've always topped at the 3rd but that's how I was taught all those years ago . Good luck with your grow.

Beheaded Auto!!!damn! I accidentally beheaded my lady, I'm on the fifteenth day you say it will cause damage or is it simply like having "topping"? I patched the same type of seed 4 days ago and she reacted well. but this is broken and it creates fear in me

Too late to top these autos? I'm at the end of 3rd week.Should I have topped this one a couple days ago? These girls have been very vigorous. The only thing that gave me pause was these miniscule white pistils right here. Can I snip em, you think? Or bad idea? And if yes, should I FIM instead?

Cuando hacer corte apical en automáticas?He visto que muchos cultivadores tienen buenos resultados junto al LST, por ende, cuándo debería hacer un corte apical a mis automáticas? Es realmente recomendable o debería dejar que los fenotipos muestren si genética original?

Is LST and Toping a good option at the same time ?Hi,
I would like to know if it's ok to LST and do topping ?
Or it's better to do 1 , then wait 4-5 days and then to the other ?
it as 4 nodes , waiting for 5 nodes, and i transplanted them 4-5 days ago to bigger pots ...... what is better to wait for 5 nodes ?
Thanks again

Topping at two weeks?I wonder what the effect of topping so early will have? Week two is pretty unconventional, with most preferring 3-5 weeks. She seems pretty happy though. Hopefully this will give maximum uninterrupted ( minus of course the LST ) veg time now.Week 2

What is the risk to apply HS training(Topping Defoliation) to the strain for which LST/SCRoG is recommended?I am growing Auto Black Opium(Divine Seeds).
The description says SCROG and LST work good.
I started bending it recently and did 1 time topping earlier.
I feel I need to do some defoliation, but it will be 2nd HS technique, which contradicts the recommendations.
Should I?

Should i top again?My plants are topped and i used lst to pull my branches horizontal.
When i flip to flower, i am going to place a scrog net.
Should i top my main tips again before flipping to flower or just let them grow?
Don't want them outgrowing other branches when i let everything grow up.
