It really depends on the overall health of your plant, and your lights. I read a lot of articles that recommend waiting until your sixth node, then top down to node three. Personally, I top after 5 nodes and only remove the top itself.

Is now the time to top?Is this a good time to top? Most plants are developing their 5th or 6th node as pictured. Is it recommended to cut just above the 4th or 5th node? I am planning on doing "LBH’s Famous 4-Way LST" combined with SCrOG.

New nodes after topping very small, should I top more?I topped my plants a few days ago, but just the tips when the side nodes where just as little as a few mm. I've seen a lot of you topping like a whole bunch of the top. I mainlined my plants but I dont know if I should top them again so the nodes under the top become main nodes.

Topping very bushy plants with low node distance This plant is very bushy already in this stage, is this normal? I wanted to top them and ask about the timing, if its right or not, but it's getting hard to count the nodes and take photos , because there is so much in the way. Happy growing!

Leaves. Too many

Hello guys Help.... 700W LED Full spectrum IS IT EXACTLY?!?!.. Tropicana banana - week 11, growth has stopped, fertilizer - florra trio (according to the chart), could it have gotten stressed during LST? Or during topping? The main thing! I don't know when to switch to 12/12. This is my first photoperiod plant.

Outdoor topping?Wondering if I should top my outdoor grow. I have read both directions. Topping will make bushier and seems to be the thing to do indoors. Should I top my outdoor plants? This is my first grow. Or Should I just let them be to flourish?
