The readiness of getting topped is based on how many nodes the plant has and its over all health. Your plant is looking quite healthy. I'd say your good to go, top/prune away. should always aim for 2 min and 3 is ideal for node sites before topping. Anything after three nodes is also ok, just depends on the style your looking to grow your plant into. Best of Luck and Happy Growing.

To say topping is "lazy fuck" is a bit much and not helpful. I also don't understand at all what "clone resort" means, or what it is, if its a place... If you want to top this grow, go for it. Lots of good answers below. If you interested in supercroping read up on it and try it. Maybe even talk to @AsNoriu he seems to be thrilled about it. All the options have pros and cons. Its what you want to do, this is your time and your grow. I feel people need to find their own path and try different things to see what fits with their growing style. There are lots of tools that are available to you and you can use them when ever you want. Making mistakes is one way to learn, and it enforces the knowledge we get from that experience be it good or bad. Its trying not to hold a bias that's the hard part. Having a supportive community that is pro learning and growing is what will help you achieve your goals. Hope this helps and Happy Growing!

I am big fan of pain for plants, just a bit sado mazo freak ;))) But I never top plants, tried it, simple way to form even canopy, BUT .... You loose few days or week of grow, mostly of top part were all efforts and energy of plant went, just to throw it away ???? SuperCroping, LST, leave tucking , small stem crushing and etc, there is milion ways to harm without step backs, so what for ??? Only because you read or saw ??? I grew not one and not ten, you have to see how plant grow without and with training to understand is it needed. Toping is lazy fuck or clone resort, no other way. You have nice girl, bent her before watering, expose side branches manually by lifting above fan leaves, so many things and options without castration ... All the Best !

Yor plant is ready to be topped. I always wait 3rd node and value the plant healt...if she's healty,you can start topping. I want to tell you something about the distance between your nodes..i think you have to slightly move up you light. When they are too close,it means the light is close to the plant,otherside,if the distance between the nodes is a lot,you have to move down your light because the plant is stretching. After you top,wait the recovery of the plant 👊🏽 Hope it helped.. Good luck 🍀🍀

I typically top when a plant has 3-5 nodes mainly depending on the plant's size and it's genetics. I think you can top now.

Yes go for it.. side note - why do your first 2-3 nodes have absolutely no growth tips/ branches beginning? That’s really weird
