When to take your top off?
JLive3asy420started grow question 4y ago
When is the best time to top? What exactly is a node? Is it the start of new growth on the main trunk?

A node is where side leaves (and later on new branches) appear. You usually should wait until 4-5 nodes have formed, unless you want to do some hardcore HST. Do not count cotyledon leaves as a node.

Topping during Flowering: good or bad?Does topping “fast growing” colas during flowering (for light purposes) help or hinder flower dev and/or harvest?
Or should I sacrifice tallest ones to possible bleaching?
Canopy was level before flower, but a few colas took off, creating uneven SoG (6" diff)

Height of plantAll 3 of my plants are different sizes. Next time I’m only gonna grow one strain at a time unless there’s a way to speed up the growth of the other two. I have a yellow spectrum light I was using for veg that I can put on the left of my grow tent & then put the flowering light?
