Hi there, I would still top that plant as long as it's still in the vegetative stage for a week or longer! And don't worry about losing bud sites she will put her growth energy to the lower branches and increase the yield! You will actually increase the amount of bud sites by topping her. You also have the choice of doing some low-stress training instead. This will increase your yields by opening up the canopy to those lower bud sites. I can't tell by your diaries but if it is an auto I would recommend the low stress training over the topping. ☺️

Go for it! Plants like 1 to multiple toppings! I have outdoor ladies that I’ve topped already five times to control height! It will increase your yield too! Do it! ✌️🏻💚💨🌿

Yeah it will still grow fine like a normal topping.. you just have a plant with nice lateral branching.. so it’s growing wide and like it’s been topped already.
If you haven’t flipped to 12/12 - go for it! It will recover fine. I’d probably top all those tops personally and really spread that canopy well. Looking great

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?
