Topping a second time?
Dico29started grow question 3 years ago
Hey I was wondering if I should top the four main colas. Everything is even now but just so they don’t keep producing more bud sites to compete. I Think I will also lollipop as the colas continue to develop. Let me know what y’all think!

Nice plant, it will become really big! It’s healthy and young, I guess you could top again but you should consider how the plant structure will change topping it. It will grow shorter and wider, do you have space for it? The little plant on the right isn’t going to get much light near such a beast

If you top the 4 main ones you will end up with 8 colas, not 4. Opposite of what you want if I understand correctly your question. If you want to keep the 4 main colas then do not top them again, lollipop them is a better idea if you wanna keep her focusing on the 4 main colas. If you were putting her under a scrog screen I’d say top away, but if you want the 4 big donkey dick buds then go the other route I think. Cheers!💨

How does late topping effect LST?What would you do to the new tops to avoid them being too much taller than the remaining canopy if you top late (like wk 3)? Connect them to the pot below the topping? above the topping? Chiropractic bend them? I plan to start SCROG in next 2/3wks

Mainline/Manifold: Trimming fan leaves after done with topping.Finishing up the topping portion of mainlining. P2 to be Nebula-Haze style and P3 to be Nugbuckets style. I'll be trimming growth tips other than from the 8 cola sites on each. Still keep un-shaded fan leaves below those levels? A lot online shows all lower fan leaves trimmed

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 🙏

Do i need to leave little stub of main stem when topping?I topped at just above the 4th node counting from very bottom. There is very little or no main stem sticking up above the topmost node. Is this okay or do I NEED to leave a little stub of main stem? (Refer to picture Week 3 Day 18 - 11/09)

When to start training for my plant in veg stageLooking to start lst on my plant at 3 weeks veg… question is from a first timer. Should I do the no technique training of bending the plant stem 90 degrees, or start pulling lower branches down? I feel the branches on the plant aren’t “thick” enough to start messing with them.
