Hi mate, i would say she is a little young to start topping. I would wait till the forth node in established before cutting anything off. Good luck and happy growing

LST/Topping for autoflowers?
Growing an afghan kush auto and a skunk villain auto (both 5 gal pots) in a snug 2.5 x 2.5. Wanting a uniform height I wasn't sure if I should top and/or train either- was thinking LST for the Skunk? Would also like to keep height mod. without sacrificing too much on the harvest.

Topping Too Extreme?
I was trying to even out the main growth area, as this plant stretched between 5&6th nodes. It looked like a palm tree. It's done now, but should I treat the wound?

Is it bad to top an autoflower at this stage?
I accidentally broke off the top of the plant while attempting to low stress train and now it came like this, kinda like topping.. is it bad to stress the plant this much since it's an auto on week 5? Honestly I think it's a mutant as it has lots of growth but stayed quite small.

Is it a problem if one main cola is longer then the other?
Did my first topping/mainlining. Right cola is longer then the left one, is it a problem or will they even out? For now Im trying to break any apical dominance by holding the longer cola below the shorter one. Any ideas how to deal with this?

Are the gals safe to top or are they too stressed?
I've heard that you shouldn't top your ladies while there are any deficiencies or issues as it can be extremely stressful. Considering the light spotting and slightly burnt tips, would you say these gals are fine to top or should I wait until everything is perfect and dialed in?

Broke Stem branch while main-lining
Now it's standing straight up to heal It's still growing and look healthy, but what recovery time should I expect? Will it be strong enough to continue main-lining? Should I just release the other branch? Or wait until it's healed and continue?
