If the appex is the top then the plants use all their energy in the side branches that come out on top of the fan leaves.

Topped the same way with 2 different results?? First time grower
I tried to top 2 plants in the same way but one main shoot stopped growing, but the other had two new growths come right out of the old stem, as well as 2 bushier side stems. I am just wondering what I did differently and if both plants should work out fine. Video to show...

To top, or not to top?
I held off too long with the decision and now pre-flowers have just started to appear. So I'm posed with the question: top her or not? If yes, between which nodes would you top her?

Never topped plants before, this is my first time growing and with the tight spacing of the nodes might have damaged the little growth in the crotch when I cut... Should I be ok or did I potentially damage the yield potential? Should be able to zoom in on last few pics of week 3

Should i top her? Or too late
Should i top her? I haven't trained her at all. The day/night scheme will be 14/10 for the first time in August 25th, 12/12 a few weeks later. So she will start flowering in a few weeks and she will only flower for 6 weeks since she is a fast version.

Indian Mango- 17 weeks outside grow and no flower! Need Advice
Im Growing Indian Mango Weed in the open. It's been 17 weeks since I put the seed. It's grown about 5 feet but no flowering as yet. The weather has changed to monsoon now. 2-3 hours of sun at max with high 70-80% humidity. Will it flower any time soon ? Pics are shared.

As you can see, one of my plants is a few inches taller than the others. They've all been topped 3 times for 8 mains, but I'm wondering whether I should top the big plant 1 more time in an effort to achieve a more uniform canopy height before flipping to 12-12.

Are the girls ready for flower??
Hi all! I’m wondering when will be good to switch to flower? I’m at start of week 5 & I topped them 1 week ago. Did a small amount of defoliation today to get rid of some yellow leaves that were laying on the soil. Do they look almost ready? Or wait due to topping & defoliation?

How is it looking?
How are the plants looking? Adding a new light soon so they can get extra space, however im a bit worried as the fan leaves are growing huge shadowing the nodes. The strain is mother gorilla from RQS
