Auto flowers topping
What do You think about topping/mainlining of Fast Buds auto flowers? Is it worthy? Or only LST allowable in their case?

To top or not to top (Again...would be 2nd time).
Should I top 1 more time? I have (Example pic) 4 good nodes at the end of the 2 main branches. Should I top these to allow the ones mid branch to pick up and boost or should I leave them now and just flip in a week or 2? Think they're near end of veg as not putting on any height!

How is it looking?
How are the plants looking? Adding a new light soon so they can get extra space, however im a bit worried as the fan leaves are growing huge shadowing the nodes. The strain is mother gorilla from RQS

Bottom leaves yellowish - why? And can I top?
On both of my plants (C99 & S.A.D.) the bottom leaves are turning yellowish and I can't figure out why. I'd also like to top them this week (above 3rd node), but I'm hesitant because of the leaves. Any advice on what they may be missing, and whether I should wait with topping?

When to start 12/12
Hi people. My plants are on vegetation day 26 and are 8 inches tall. My tent setup can give them room for 15 more inches for a total of 23 inches height from soil to top. So, when do you think I should start 12/12 to maximize the plants height and yield? Thanks.

Topping autoflower?
I topped my RQS Medusa F1 autoflower at 2 nodes but topped my RQS Milky Way F1 autoflower at 3 nodes. My question is which is better or should I have done it at 4 nodes? This is my first time topping autos and I'm experimenting. Would appreciate some advice. 💚🌱✌️

Autoflower topping?... and if so, when is best?
My friend is recommending that I top at the fifth node with the knowledge I'm growing autos. However, many grower's here discourage it completely for autos. What's the best practise? I've never topped so this may need spelling out for me.
