First time topping

DaBeers
DaBeersstarted grow question 2 years ago
My second grow ever (and first photo period attempt) involves these White Widows. I want to top these at least twice. Currently have 3 multi leaf nodes. When's a good time to do the first - and then the second - topping? I've heard several opinions. Maybe I could do 3? Thx

I would top them now, your lower branches will grow up to meet your top branches and when your top branches get going good again after the topping, top all the branches near the top of the plant including the lower ones that grow up to meet your top ones. Then start LST to keep them all at the same hight. Hope this helps, cheers 💨

With photoperiods you can do it as long as the plant says in vegetative stage, do it one time then wait for the plant to recover and then do it again, keep in mind that every time you do it you lengthen the growth for 1 week.

How much room you got and how big you want em? Topping makes em bushier and wider but if you got the height then you want them bushy, wide and a bit taller.. if your tent is smaller then top em now. I wait til 5th or even 6th node to top.. and remove the bottom set of branches as they yield shit anyways/ get in my way, but I grow under lights in a room not a tent so have the height to grow monsters.

Hola si tu idea es hacer varias podas apicales (multi-topping) te recomiendo cuanto mas temprano mejor, ya que se logran plantas mucho mas robustas cuando la planta no gano muchos cm de altura, y en tu caso claramente se observa una distancia internodal, con lo cual si fueran mias, cortaria mañana, espero que te haya servido, en mis diarios tengo una Frisian Dew que sufrios mas de 15 podas apicales, puedes pasar a verlas si te interesa, saludos desde Argentina.💪

You can top them when ever you want in veg, I top mine at node 3 in veg. You could also let it grow out some more and top them again later. With my one grow right now, I grew it out to node three and topped. then skipped 2 nodes and topped again, skipped a single node and topped again. I plan on topping them one more time and then will grow them out into a SCROG and flip to flower. Topping just helps the plat bush out more and create more main colas. Topping autos should only be done once. Good Luck!
