Hello, I waited till the 5th node to top it off. Waited a week or so then bent them over using lst method. Now it's a week later and all gurls are good and bushy. Just went threw and did a little defoliage. Wondering if I should go threw and do another topping or not. In week 6

So it's been 2 weeks since the last topping and 1 week since LST š¤
If she's fully recovered, I'd say go for it. Just make sure you're doing it for a reason, either shaping or height control.

Top or lst and whenShould i top her and if yes, when? She is a fotoperiod but a very fast one, and she is probably ready to harvest around the beginning of September. She is about 3,5 weeks old now so she doesn't have that much time to grow I think. Same for my other plant, that us an auto.or lst?Week 3

Currently entering the 3 week. They have precisely 15 days from seed.

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?Week 3

When do I start Low Stress Training and Will topping help along with LST to increase harvest?When do I start Low Stress Training? and Will Topping help with LST to maximize harvest or Is it better if I just do only Low Stress Training? The Plant is at Day 36th (35 Days and 11 Hours Right now) Are those 2 small dried leaves a sign of a problem?5y ago
