To top, or not to top?
I held off too long with the decision and now pre-flowers have just started to appear. So I'm posed with the question: top her or not? If yes, between which nodes would you top her?

I have a short tent so the plants shouldn't grow higher than 70cm. What would you recommend to make sure it doesn't grow long? Maybe flowering early?

How am I doing so far?
I over watered them and I think I used too much nutrition. But they look to be recovering nicely!

Topping at two weeks?
I wonder what the effect of topping so early will have? Week two is pretty unconventional, with most preferring 3-5 weeks. She seems pretty happy though. Hopefully this will give maximum uninterrupted ( minus of course the LST ) veg time now.

4x4 16 Plant Veg Time and Training
Hello guys, I am planning on flowering these 16 ladies in my 4x4, but I am unsure of how long to veg and what training to utilize for maximum yield. I was thinking 3-4 weeks? Or maybe longer? Is topping in such a tight space a good idea? If yes then at what time? Thanks!

Topping gone right?
Anybody ever have a topping turn out like this? Just thought it was funny I didn’t even notice. Definitely didn’t get the light it needed to grow but I’m gonna get some big colas from this baby and probably more main ones now too

Should I top It?
I’m wondering if this is the right moment to do a top cut (apical pruning). Should I wait a bit longer, or is it fine to do it now? Also, is it okay to top a FastBuds autoflower, or is it too risky? I’m dealing with some space limitations, only 52cm of vertical space. Thanks

When am I ready to start topping my plants?
I was thinking of topping my plants in about a weeks time after they're a little more established in their larger pots unless the stressed one doesn't start to bounce back. Does it seem to early for that?
