Begin topping the plant?
Hey growers, it’s day 26 this is plant #1 - Am I a bit late on training and topping? I need some advice as to what I should do next - I am very limited to spacing, growing in a 24x24x48 tent. I only have 15 inches of space left I will like to clone one and grow it outdoors

Top the plant again or not?
Hello growers, I have a question, I already top this 2 plants and I’m doing lst, and later I’ll use the scrog, but can I top it again? Should I do it or isn’t worth it? I read it could lower the finally quantity yield, and that is some stress to the plant. Is it worth?

Topping
I want o top my plant I hear pinching works best. This is my first plant so I want to be certain. I have six nodes right now. I would like to know where to pinch and which node. I’ve seen a lot of different ways of doing it.

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?

Show I cut main stem?
Should I get rid of the main stem and just grow the surrounding bud sites? The main stem is getting too tall compared to the other stems so thinking I have to do something to help them catch up? Or just cut the main stem entirely? Finished 1st week of 12 12 tonight.

Tent Management Help please SCROG
Any advice to help spread this canopy out or keeping them from overlapping the other plants? I don't want to buy a new light, should I just move this one (300w) up and move the plants a couple inches out? Start bending different directions? Trim something? Add a smaller light in?

Topping Too Extreme?
I was trying to even out the main growth area, as this plant stretched between 5&6th nodes. It looked like a palm tree. It's done now, but should I treat the wound?

LST and Topping
I am starting to feed them nutrients and they are growing faster lately. I am considering starting LST and topping next week. LST when it reaches 4/5 nodes, and topping above the 5th node. Do you have any tips on how to perform this the best way ? Thank you in advance !
