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).

3 weeks in. Fan leaves the size of my hand. Topped today. How long until 2nd topping?
Directly planted seeds in organic living soil. These plants are vigorously growing, topped today. By the way things are going I believe that the recovery time will be very short. All organic ingredients. De chlorinated water with vitamin c. Fan leaves are larger then my hand

Should I top this branch at week 3 of flower?
The thickest branch on my plant is taller than all the rest. Just started week 3 of flowering. Should I top it down to the same height as the rest of the plant?

Should I top her a second time?
I know some people believe topping autos is a bad idea but so far I've had great results. I have only ever topped autoflowers a single time. Never twice. Wondering if anyone has experience with topping more than once? If so, how did it turn out?

Topping auto northern light
I'm considering topping my northern lights auto one of the following days, as it's starting to grow towards its 4th node. Most diaries I've seen for this strain take 12+ weeks, so that seems like it should have some time to recover from that. Anyone has any experience w auto top?

Should I top this again?
I'll need to flip it to flower in about 3 weeks or so and I'm curious if I should top it again before I flip the light schedule or would it just hurt me in the long run?

Topping early at the third node
Hi. 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

To cut or not to cut ?
Hi buddies, my girl is in the 2' bloom week and I'm uncertain if I have to cut the flowers of the lower part of the buds or not. I want only dense buds and not lollipops. Here 3 pics: the flowers are circled in red, the branch from bottom in blu and the whole bud. Many thx 🙏

Beheaded Auto!!!
damn! I accidentally beheaded my lady, I'm on the fifteenth day you say it will cause damage or is it simply like having "topping"? I patched the same type of seed 4 days ago and she reacted well. but this is broken and it creates fear in me

Late topping to take direct clone from topping after 8 or 9 nodes?
Late topping to get a decent clone (two nodes) with first topping? What do you guys think, is there a too late for topping? Normaly i top only the tip and take clones later from branches. My girl nr.4 is three weeks behind she could catch up, cutting the clone from branches?
