Outdoor topping?
Muthaofdragonfliesstarted grow question 4 years ago
Wondering if I should top my outdoor grow. I have read both directions. Topping will make bushier and seems to be the thing to do indoors. Should I top my outdoor plants? This is my first grow. Or Should I just let them be to flourish?

For sure! Top and then top again if they are vegging out. Just not if you are close to flower. Topping gives ideal shape for outdoors as the sun moves along giving more even light distribution. Yields are better and keeps out of the eyes of any nosy neighbours too!

No nosy neighbors here. I can let them get as big as I like. So I didn’t know if there was a benefit with them being outdoors and the sun movement.
Maybe I’ll do no topping this time and top them next year as I get better with my skill. I looked closely at them today and it would just break my heat to screw it up.
Plus next year I know to order my seeds WAYYYYY earlier. So I can start this grow earlier. That way if I screw it up topping, I can always start another. If I screw up now.... I’m out of luck.

It’s your call. Try topping this time and maybe next time let her go naturally. No topping makes a beautiful looking plant

Outdoor growers: fim/top?I want to make sure to clarify that this question is only for outdoor growers with a photoperiod limited solely by the nature of the changing seasons.
Should I even bother with fim/topping? Is the juice worth the squeeze? Let me know your thoughts, or even better, resultsSetup. Outdoor

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?

Dudas sobre ToppingTengo varias dudas. La planta está por 6 nudo de crecimiento
¿Hago el topping por encima del 4 nudo o por encima del 5 nudo?
¿El corte debe ser a 90 grados o a 45 grados?
Leo muchos artículos y foros con distintas opiniones, pero no me queda claro...
Gracias!

Best greenhouseHi! I'm buying a greenhouse for my ladies, I currently have these 2 options. The first fits more plants, but not very stealthy and will probably draw attention. The second blurs the content a little, but is made of diffuse plastic (can it lower yield?).Which one would you choose?

Tallo principal partido!Ayer me encontré el tallo principal partido por la mitad! 😮
Hay mucha tensión porque las dos ramas superiores se han hecho muy grandes y pesan mucho tras topping y supercropping
Lo he atado con un cable metalico recubierto de plastico
¿Haríais algo más para ayudarla?
