Topping or LST after 1st topping
CBDreamerstarted grow question 2 years ago
Last week I topped this little baby, the plant now is growing ok. I noticed that not only the two top side branches are growing a lot, but that the ones on the node under it too.
I would like to make the 4 grow and like that I don't have to top more, is it ok? How can I do it?

Hello,after some weeks they are going to grow LIKE CRAZY! so you havent seen nothing yet,no worries is going to grow perfectly,you can top another one and another one untill you are satisfying BUT if the plants can make it through too,i think this one time topping is enough.Be carefull with the grow nute i think you have Nitrogen toxicity and you need to chill out the nutrients a little bit
Hope i help 😀

That is the entire point of topping, to get the lower branches to take over as the main growing tops and shoot off.
You could remove all the other branches and encourage this plant to have 4 main tops, nothing else, then LST them for a great potential harvest.

When to flush and harvest and should I defoliate again?When to flush and harvest? I think I am close but my gut tells me to keep it on the current nutrients and feeding schedule for another week or 2 and then flush but also don't want to leave it too long.. My stash is all but empty. Also, should I defoliate again?

Benefits of FIMing vs Topping? Specific example.First grow. Looking at FIM results I'm super confused!
It looks like if I had waited for the next segment to emerge and topped it (pics), I would get the same 4 branches (potential colas) AND 4 fan leaves which I have lost now due to FIM?
Did FIM benefit here at all vs Topping?

Will this tape repair a broken stem?Should I re-wrap this broken stem? Bent with too much pressure and there was a snap, though not completely severed. I applied two or three layers of duct tape, not sure if the constant pull of ties will allow it to heal and repair. When should I take the tape off?
