Hi there Rainbow, the early flowering is a very sensitive time, you never want to touch a plant in flowering , less stress more flowers. Hope this helps ! 🚀

No I wouldn't top it. Looking at your lower growth it looks like you would have encountered problems if you had topped her.

I would not top a auto. They have limited time, and it can be too stressful on them. Just lst them to get the most out of them. I average about a qp a auto just using lst. My Larry lemon diary has a daily picture after lst from seed to smoke if curious how I go about it. Good luck and happy growing 🌱🌱🌱

Benefits of FIMing vs Topping? Specific example.First grow. Looking at FIM results I'm super confused!
It looks like if I had waited for the next segment to emerge and topped it (pics), I would get the same 4 branches (potential colas) AND 4 fan leaves which I have lost now due to FIM?
Did FIM benefit here at all vs Topping?7 months ago

Topping/Cloning QuestionI 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.Setup. Clones

Are the gals safe to top or are they too stressed?I've heard that you shouldn't top your ladies while there are any deficiencies or issues as it can be extremely stressful. Considering the light spotting and slightly burnt tips, would you say these gals are fine to top or should I wait until everything is perfect and dialed in?Week 3

Topping techinque: 4 main colasI'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?Techniques.

Bottom leaves yellowish - why? And can I top?On both of my plants (C99 & S.A.D.) the bottom leaves are turning yellowish and I can't figure out why. I'd also like to top them this week (above 3rd node), but I'm hesitant because of the leaves. Any advice on what they may be missing, and whether I should wait with topping?Leaves. Color - Yellow
