You only cut leaves if they are blocking BUDS from getting light or growing tips of new shoots. They dont need more "air' or "h20" so please dont cut leaves off unless you know why you are cutting them off. If you think " this leaf is blocking that new shoot im trying to grow up' then yes cut it off, but if you just want to cut something cause you think it will help- then stop. put the scizzors down and step away from your plant.

My plant has gotten taller than the don't go past this line marker and was almost touching my light. I cut the top off by two nodes and am still 10" below the light. The other cola branches are @ 12" below light. I have four other COla branches should I trim them down to canopy?

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?

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?

Are these autos stunned after topping Are these auto's stunned? Seen few of ppl say on here can not top autos - that is a lie. You cant top autos once the pistils show. Proof. Side by side. 2 topped. 1 without.
