I would wait until the new branches have grown at least 2-4 nodes before topping the branches again.

For mainlining, (as long as the plant is healthy) you can top again after you see 3-4 nodes on each new main branch, you only need to take the top node.

To top or not to top an autoflower
As I can read when googling, it’s a hit or miss to top and auto. What’s your experience? Should I go for it? My plant just started her third week.

New nodes after topping very small, should I top more?
I topped my plants a few days ago, but just the tips when the side nodes where just as little as a few mm. I've seen a lot of you topping like a whole bunch of the top. I mainlined my plants but I dont know if I should top them again so the nodes under the top become main nodes.

Late topping to take direct clone from topping after 8 or 9 nodes?
Late topping to get a decent clone (two nodes) with first topping? What do you guys think, is there a too late for topping? Normaly i top only the tip and take clones later from branches. My girl nr.4 is three weeks behind she could catch up, cutting the clone from branches?

She’s looking really bushy, did I top her too early?
Did I top her too early? She’s become real bushy and leafy. Not sure if I should be trimming the lower area yet or just let her grow. About 4 weeks in veg. Thanks!

Grow strategy for 2 ILGM Purple Punch Autos
I'm told this is a bushy strain and I might want to top the plant? Suggestions? If so when/how? Should I split strategies between 2 plants to see whats better for this strain? I know I'm probably over thinking it. But come on you remember when you first started. :)
