This all breaks down to how you want your plant to grow and how many tops you would like . If you have lots of space height and width wise you can top them and let them heal and repeat this process till you have one GIANT plant or you can top it a few times and let it grow and have more then one plant . When it comes to training like this , topping , FIMMING , LST its all about preferences so for example a training method that you really enjoy and that works really well for you may not be ideal for another grower , it's all about needs and goals . You also wanna factor in the amount of "healing" time that it takes topping a plant to gain extra "tops" is great but most of the time people use this method in order to help control the height and canopy of a plant . Over all I'd say you got lots of space and some nice healthy plants you could top them many many many times if you liked or just do it once again its all about preferences . I hope this information helps you on your quests to becoming a grow master :) -Happy Growing!

I top the plant suntil i got a good amount of tops, and i do it until 1 weeks after switching to flower......It really depends in the plant how often i do it. i start topping then 3-4 times then i do supercropping and if the plant grows nicely i top again, and after that aagain supercropping. I do it until 1 week before flowers appear, or easier said i stop if preflowers show up, maybe a few dys longer

I usually just one time but I'm low on space.. If I had more space I'd top couple more times and then super-scrop them in to Scrog 👍

Defoliation soon after SupercroppingI am thinking of defoliating my Blue Cheese. I supercropped it about a week ago and the growth is powering. I want to do some defoliation but I am unsure if it is necessary, or if it is too soon after supercropping.

Defoliate or not yet?The breeder (AutoSeeds) says they work better if you don't LST to much and focus on the main cola. Should I select a few of the large leaves and defoliate them to get more light in the middle. Just don't want to pick the wrong ones. Hope I have enough images to help you help me.

Leaf it alone?So I feel like these colas are more sugar leaves than buds. Should I have defoliated them more? It’s week 17 is it too late to be thinking about defoliation? I just want to get the best out of these last couple weeks. Trichomes appear glassy/clear. Would u agree?
