I do not recommend it. The plants should be more vigorous and healthier and a little bigger. It will be counterproductive.

A diary would help greatly. If I had to guess, it looks kinda like you might have gotten water on leaves during lights on.

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

Topping or LST after 1st topping
Last week I topped this little baby, the plant now is growing ok. I noticed that not only the two top side branches are growing a lot, but that the ones on the node under it too. I would like to make the 4 grow and like that I don't have to top more, is it ok? How can I do it?

Topping/Cloning Question
I am planning on topping at node 5 and using the clipping to plant in a rockwool pellet for cloning. Would I still need a rooting gel if the clipping is being placed directly in a rockwool pellet? Appreciate the read, happy growing and learning.

Removing popcorn buds and small bottom branches/flowers on Week10
Hi guys, Day66 with my autoflower, 3 more weeks to go before harvest. This is my 1st grow so I didn’t do too much besides LST. No topping, no fimming etc. Is it safe to remove the popcorn buds from the bottom and some small branches that don t reach light? Will this hurt her? Ty

should I top some more?
I topped once.. from one main high cola I got 4 per plant.. on one plant after LST it seems next small ones are appearing. Should I top again to get more colas? My original plan was to go with SCRoG and I still haven't decided if I'll do it (I think there's still time)

He visto un vídeo donde hablan de defoliación y poda de bajo luego de pasar las plantas a 12/12, he leido que una vez se coloca las plantas a florecer no
no debería; ahora mismo tengo unas plantas que llevan 5 días que las pase a 12/12 y tengo debajo de la malla unas ramas que no llevan luz y en la parte de arriba unas hojas muy grandes que paran el paso de la luz, puedo defoliar y hacer poda de bajos al 7mo dia?

Hi! How many main branches are best left after topping? In my last grow I left 8 branches (4 nodes) and it was too difficult to train them. Leaving 4 main branches in "plus" shape would be a good solution? Which option will save me more time (fast veg is important for me)? Thanks
