Yess she is only showing you her sex but not flowering so nothing to worry about, and by doing it do not forget to disinfect your tools with alcohol a clean work is always better. Have a nice grow, good luck! 🙌

Topping Vs Not Topping
My Green Crack Autoflower just started lst and I have been reading alot of mixed things about topping autoflower. Would you guys risk topping an autoflower, having it stunt or negatively effect yeild OR Top it to break the plants apical dominance and therefore create more colas?

One new top shoot died what i HST yesterday.super sad thing.The other one looks strong. I angled the left shoot with a 45 degree. So the Botton shoot can get more light and be a backup Top? I dont know maybe i cut it down I have 3 nodes now. If i cut the top one i lose lot grow.

Topping In Tiny Places
I’ve been topping my autos in a 3.8 sf stealth cabinet religiously at the 20ish day. In hydro that is around node 6-7. Would topping earlier giving the speed of growth that hydro provides, say at 3-4 node, make the plant less bushy and easier to manage? Ideas for tiny places?

Praying leaves
The leaves are stretching up (praying leaves as I understand). It's just 1 day after topping and I would expect some stress, is this a good or bad sign? I fear I might have topped them a bit too early.

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!

When am I ready to start topping my plants?
I was thinking of topping my plants in about a weeks time after they're a little more established in their larger pots unless the stressed one doesn't start to bounce back. Does it seem to early for that?

Are the girls ready for flower??
Hi all! I’m wondering when will be good to switch to flower? I’m at start of week 5 & I topped them 1 week ago. Did a small amount of defoliation today to get rid of some yellow leaves that were laying on the soil. Do they look almost ready? Or wait due to topping & defoliation?

4 Branch or 2 Branch Grow?
After a 2-node top, I left 4 main branches for this 18 x 24 cabinet. 8 branch grow is a jungle from experience, but any idea if a 2-branch grow would be better than a 4 branch grow with my given space?

LST and Topping
I am starting to feed them nutrients and they are growing faster lately. I am considering starting LST and topping next week. LST when it reaches 4/5 nodes, and topping above the 5th node. Do you have any tips on how to perform this the best way ? Thank you in advance !
