Hi I would only top each of them once as your be limited on space, Overall will give you alot of top colas and fill out your space nicely, Best of luck bro 🌱

I also thought that fimming is a good idea because then I would have 4 colas and I think I have enough space for it. What Is your opinion about that?

Which node is number 1
When counting nodes for the first topping, which node is number 1? The cotyledons? First single serrated leaf? 1st 3 fingered leaf? I'm counting pairs of leaves as those are where the nodes are, just not sure which to count as number 1. Personally, i say first 3 fingered leaf

How long should you keep a clone domed?
The clone was a topping from my violator kush fem cut/planted on saturday. Since then it has shown significant growth which leads my to believe she’s started rooting. How long should i keep her domed for?

Topped the same way with 2 different results?? First time grower
I tried to top 2 plants in the same way but one main shoot stopped growing, but the other had two new growths come right out of the old stem, as well as 2 bushier side stems. I am just wondering what I did differently and if both plants should work out fine. Video to show...
