DieselKushstarted grow question 3 years ago
Do you think these guys are ready, #1 we want to top and #2 we want to FIM? What do you think should we wait?

Hi friend, You can top or fim when they have 4 or 5 nodes.It’s still alittle bit early to do that.But I recommend to do LST rather than topping or fimming.For an auto flower,you shouldn’t top or fim more than one time.They have short life cycle and don’t have so much time to recover.You can get the same result or may be better one by doing LST.So I encourage you to do only LST rather than top or fim.Happy growing... ✌️

I would wait a week or two. Ive done side by sides with autos doing no top, top, and fim. Topping is by far the best in my experience but I would only top it once and when its more robust.

They look a bit small to me to be fiming them yet. Your bigger plant, #1 I think is close, I would wait a few more days till they have at least 4 nodes and are a bit beefier. Cheers!💨

Those look from seed Nd if there autos dont top just lst. Otherwise best to wait between 3 nodes to 5 atleast before you start topping

Topping techinque: 4 main colasI'm approaching topping for the first time. The aim is to get 4 main colas, without FIM. The intention is to cut at the 3rd node (cut C) in order to develop the branches of nodes 2 and 3 as main ones. Does this make sense? Has anyone already had any experience with this?

LST/Topping for autoflowers?Growing an afghan kush auto and a skunk villain auto (both 5 gal pots) in a snug 2.5 x 2.5. Wanting a uniform height I wasn't sure if I should top and/or train either- was thinking LST for the Skunk? Would also like to keep height mod. without sacrificing too much on the harvest.Techniques.

Autoflower topping?... and if so, when is best?My friend is recommending that I top at the fifth node with the knowledge I'm growing autos.
However, many grower's here discourage it completely for autos.
What's the best practise? I've never topped so this may need spelling out for me.
Thanks in advance ✂️

Topping or LST after 1st toppingLast week I topped this little baby, the plant now is growing ok. I noticed that not only the two top side branches are growing a lot, but that the ones on the node under it too.
I would like to make the 4 grow and like that I don't have to top more, is it ok? How can I do it?
