One new top shoot died what i HST yesterday.super sad thing.The other one looks strong. I angled the left shoot with a 45 degree. So the Botton shoot can get more light and be a backup Top? I dont know maybe i cut it down I have 3 nodes now. If i cut the top one i lose lot grow.

As you can see, one of my plants is a few inches taller than the others. They've all been topped 3 times for 8 mains, but I'm wondering whether I should top the big plant 1 more time in an effort to achieve a more uniform canopy height before flipping to 12-12.

Topping o no hacer nada a esta fotodependiente
Estoy dudando si hacer Topping o no hacerle nada Tiene 24 días de vida. Empezó en maceta de 3 litros, y se ha pasado a maceta de 15 litros en el dia 22 Está en el sexto nudo de crecimiento ¿Le harías topping o fimming o dejarla crecer libremente? La veo tan sana y bonita...

Putting back into veg before pistils and sexual maturity?
Can you veg even after a 12/12 from seed has been in flower room 3 weeks shes just not big enough and would also like to top her so I really am considering it, the reason being is I can't see one pistil yet which means she's not mature, I don't see why it would make a difference

Topping/Cloning Question
I 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.

Late topping to take direct clone from topping after 8 or 9 nodes?
Late topping to get a decent clone (two nodes) with first topping? What do you guys think, is there a too late for topping? Normaly i top only the tip and take clones later from branches. My girl nr.4 is three weeks behind she could catch up, cutting the clone from branches?

Big green blisters lol
Are these from stressing the plant, or more sinister? I read somewhere that it might be a nutrient thing but I just want closure lol 👊 also quick question on when to put these bad girls into flower?

Topping Green Crack Auto
Should I top fast buds green crack auto flower? Its vertical growth is incredible. Just curious if I could top it now with the benefit of increase yield along with less vertical growth.

Topping question.
The question is experienced. Today I cut all 4 colas into two of my plants to bifurcate them. I have read many articles and watched many YouTube videos, but there is no definitive information. Will this increase yields and help fill the skrog net? Or was it not worth it?

LST and Topping
I am starting to feed them nutrients and they are growing faster lately. I am considering starting LST and topping next week. LST when it reaches 4/5 nodes, and topping above the 5th node. Do you have any tips on how to perform this the best way ? Thank you in advance !

Are these plants ready for topping/LST? 2 have just gotten to 6th node and one to 5th (was planted 4-5 days after first two)
Looking to top all three and potentially manifold at least one of these plants. Only concern is I just transplanted them in tuesday. They look great but I just want to make sure they are out of the woods on transplant shock before i start hacking away at them.
