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

EXTREME topping :P
How many nodes have you cut off of a photo before? I plan to grow my Gorilla Glue and Gelato together till harvest, yoink the Gorilla Glue, flip the Gelato to flower. I'd like an idea just how extreme I can go with my next "topping" to keep this plant as small as possible.

To top or not?
Should I top "No. 3"? She is at 30cm after day 16 and her 5th set of true leaves are starting to sprout? I think she can handle it 🤔

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.

Training Automatics - best practices!
Hi guys. How do you go about training automatics? Some say only LST, some don't hesitate to top several times and some say to just leave it grow by itself. I'd love to top'em a few times but I'm not sure. Please HALP! Thank you! (Pic pretty unrelated, it's my last Mimosa EVO)

Begin topping the plant?
Hey growers, it’s day 26 this is plant #1 - Am I a bit late on training and topping? I need some advice as to what I should do next - I am very limited to spacing, growing in a 24x24x48 tent. I only have 15 inches of space left I will like to clone one and grow it outdoors
