New nodes after topping very small, should I top more?
Cremostarted grow question 5 years ago
I topped my plants a few days ago, but just the tips when the side nodes where just as little as a few mm. I've seen a lot of you topping like a whole bunch of the top. I mainlined my plants but I dont know if I should top them again so the nodes under the top become main nodes.

I'd wait.. don't top anything again for 2-3 weeks. She will stretch she's just starting her recovery. Give her some time in a week your mind will be blown!! Happy growing!

when i was younger i did 16 hours of community service at a green house for possession (not on record, but i guess it is, now)... lol..
anyway, i was told not to prune every node, but skip one then cut. so basically 2 nodes between cuts. not sure if that applies to marijuana, though. I'm sure it can handle it but maybe not optimal. 1 node - 2 nodes - safe to cut.
i don't know if it matters, but anecdotally i think a little beginning growth of auxiliary buds before i top that branch tends to help too. as opposed to the tiniest nubs in nooks -- more so about anything below, the 1-2 at top are typically still quite small when i do it. i'll take more than 1 node off top occasionally too.

Pistils? Steps from now on?Hey this is my first plant. Went all good till now. Not the growth i had wished for, but im happy.
Day 21 now i see pistils clearly. Isnt it a bit early for pistils, because the plant is relatively small.
How should i proceed? LST? Topping an option or is it too late?

Bottom leaves yellowish - why? And can I top?On both of my plants (C99 & S.A.D.) the bottom leaves are turning yellowish and I can't figure out why. I'd also like to top them this week (above 3rd node), but I'm hesitant because of the leaves. Any advice on what they may be missing, and whether I should wait with topping?

How and when to train?Hi,
first grow here. My automatics are at their 16th day above ground. I think I have to top one of my plants to keep her height in check. Where and when should I top her? should I rather only do LST or maybe even wait for now (but they are automatics, so I should be quick?)?

Topping techinque: 4 main colasI'm approaching topping for the first time. The aim is to get 4 main colas, without FIM. The intention is to cut at the 3rd node (cut C) in order to develop the branches of nodes 2 and 3 as main ones. Does this make sense? Has anyone already had any experience with this?

autoflower, extended veg time, due to mainlining "topping,training" and stable genetics and pot size ?Could you in theory manipulate the veg time of an autoflower, by doing main-lining "lots of topping, training" with good genetics, oversized pot, 24 hour lights and good timing ?
