The time of toppings (nodes) don't matter. Can top on the single leaf if you wanted. Ideally all you want is to create 2 Cola's (tops). If you are waiting for the 5th node should be pinning down the top so side branches grow out more.

From personal experience, I would wait until week 4 before topping. You want 5 nice and long nodes to work with. Since it's a photoperiod plant, you have time to veg it properly for regrowth.

Hi! So you are going to top the gals? Then yes, cut the plant in half above the fifth node, it does not matter if you leave some extra stem in there and you wont have to cut "just" above the brnaches

LST after Topping When would you start doing LST after doing a topping? I have topped about 3 days ago now, and have good growth from the new sites, about 1/2 inch of stock coming from the tops. Worried if I LST a little too early those new tops might not be grown enough yet!

Topping Topping Question: When Topping, tutorials state to wait til you have 4-6 nodes. Does this count the cotyledon leaves, or for that matter the first single serrated leaf? Where do you begin counting nodes? Thanks in advance!
