Top or not to top

TheNewNoobOnTheBlockstarted grow question 4y ago

Top her or not? It's my first time grow ever, so would you say it is advisable to do that and when is a good time to do so? Also she already seems to be stressed by my borderline abusing care 😅 Besides I think I gonna do LST on them

Hello, no don’t top it yet, you should only top when you have 5-6 nodes then you top on the 5 or 4, but be careful cause you can damage your plant. Also I thin your plant is underwater, that’s why the leafes are curling, be careful and let the top dry. Careful too to not put your light to close to the plant. Good luck!

Should I top this again?I'll need to flip it to flower in about 3 weeks or so and I'm curious if I should top it again before I flip the light schedule or would it just hurt me in the long run?

Topped the same way with 2 different results?? First time grower I tried to top 2 plants in the same way but one main shoot stopped growing, but the other had two new growths come right out of the old stem, as well as 2 bushier side stems. I am just wondering what I did differently and if both plants should work out fine. Video to show...

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.

Top now or wait? Growing 4th node.I'm about a week into veg, plants look to be about 4-6 inches tall. Most are going into their 4th node. Should I wait longer or is now a good time? Also, should I wait for all plants to be at around the same stage or should I top the ones that are ready first?
