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.

Are those nutrient defficiencies? Which ones?A plant had interveinal chlorosis on new leaves and then proceeded to show brown patches between veins on middle leaves. Another has coppery brown spots on leaf edges on the middle of the plant. Both were rootbound in living soil (peat/perlite/hummus + ammendments).

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

Topping early at the third nodeHi. I have topped two plants above the third node but I don't intend to main-line them. They both had developed four mature nods. Was I too early to top and I cut at the wrong node? Can they develop enough branches to Scrog a 70x70cm grow?
They kept growing after the topping

Topping Vs Not ToppingMy Green Crack Autoflower just started lst and I have been reading alot of mixed things about topping autoflower.
Would you guys risk topping an autoflower, having it stunt or negatively effect yeild OR
Top it to break the plants apical dominance and therefore create more colas?

Are the gals safe to top or are they too stressed?I've heard that you shouldn't top your ladies while there are any deficiencies or issues as it can be extremely stressful. Considering the light spotting and slightly burnt tips, would you say these gals are fine to top or should I wait until everything is perfect and dialed in?

ToppingSorry - Another topping / training question: When is the best time to "Top" your plants in regards to time of the day, e.g. morning/midday/night in terms of light schedule?
In short: do you cuts your plants when the lights come on, before they go off, or somewhere in between?Week 4
