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.

When am I ready to start topping my plants?
I was thinking of topping my plants in about a weeks time after they're a little more established in their larger pots unless the stressed one doesn't start to bounce back. Does it seem to early for that?

To top or not to top (Again...would be 2nd time).
Should I top 1 more time? I have (Example pic) 4 good nodes at the end of the 2 main branches. Should I top these to allow the ones mid branch to pick up and boost or should I leave them now and just flip in a week or 2? Think they're near end of veg as not putting on any height!

Topping techinque: 4 main colas
I'm approaching topping for the first time. The aim is to get 4 main colas, without FIM. The intention is to cut at the 3rd node (cut C) in order to develop the branches of nodes 2 and 3 as main ones. Does this make sense? Has anyone already had any experience with this?

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.

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

I want o top my plant I hear pinching works best. This is my first plant so I want to be certain. I have six nodes right now. I would like to know where to pinch and which node. I’ve seen a lot of different ways of doing it.

Blue dream harvesters I need your help! I was reading the strain info on 420 fastbuds and It looks like they are suggesting to top it! I was under the impression that u won't supposed to top an auto. Have any of u topped this strain with success? I'll be growing this strain next!

Topping auto northern light
I'm considering topping my northern lights auto one of the following days, as it's starting to grow towards its 4th node. Most diaries I've seen for this strain take 12+ weeks, so that seems like it should have some time to recover from that. Anyone has any experience w auto top?
