Pistils? Steps from now on?
Hey this is my first plant. Went all good till now. Not the growth i had wished for, but im happy. Day 21 now i see pistils clearly. Isnt it a bit early for pistils, because the plant is relatively small. How should i proceed? LST? Topping an option or is it too late?

Praying leaves
The leaves are stretching up (praying leaves as I understand). It's just 1 day after topping and I would expect some stress, is this a good or bad sign? I fear I might have topped them a bit too early.

LST, defoliation and topping advice..
Plz look at my four girls and advise when I should top them? LST going ok so far but think I need to wait a bit before topping? Anyone got a preferred method of doing things? I’m hoping to LST for another week or so and then switch to flower am I rushing things? More Defoliation?

Topping
Never topped plants before, this is my first time growing and with the tight spacing of the nodes might have damaged the little growth in the crotch when I cut... Should I be ok or did I potentially damage the yield potential? Should be able to zoom in on last few pics of week 3

When do you start topping? Photoperiods need to LST? Can ya'll just go look at my diary and tell me if my ladies look like they should LOL.
When to top or LST? Do these look stunted? I'm super curious about methods for best yield. I'm already worried my girls are leggy (but I've gotten some great advise already to let them rest but also give them bigger pots soon). Planted March 20th. Pictures from today.

Changing light for flower?
Hi Guys, Just topped my ladies today, they are on their last day of week 2. And I was wondering if it would be best to give them a week rest with another week of grow or should I turn my light to 12/12 already? Thanks !

I kind of topped her a lot. I am a new grower. I appreciate suggestions and advice for bigger fatter more potent yields. I’m not there yet. Maybe I over fertilize?

Topping LSD and Acapulco Gold
Anyone have any experience topping LSD or Acapulco Gold Strains? I've never grown these strains before and am curious how they respond to topping. Going to do it anyway, just looking for any insight from someone who's done it before. Thanks!

Are the girls ready for flower??
Hi all! I’m wondering when will be good to switch to flower? I’m at start of week 5 & I topped them 1 week ago. Did a small amount of defoliation today to get rid of some yellow leaves that were laying on the soil. Do they look almost ready? Or wait due to topping & defoliation?

Outdoor Topping Limit?
Hey Gromies! My outdoor girls still have till October to grow. They are in 10 gallon smart pots in the ground to combat the high temps here. I'm hoping to keep them under my fence line but I'm starting to think I'll need to top them all a second time. Will that be an issue?

I feel i may have cut it too short, any thoughts ?
First attempt at topping, It was creating its 5th node so I decided to top it, not sure if it was a good idea or if I done it correctly. dont really have a before picture except for the one taken above.
