You could top it now. Your at that stage where it's time to train and get hands on.

Hey Guys! I’m doing two autos - Runtz Auto by Zamnesia. Currently entering the 3 week. They have precisely 15 days from seed. What do you think of topping? Or half topping? Regardless, i found some different answers, positive and negative about this method of training.

Topping techinque: 4 main colas
I'm approaching topping for the first time. The aim is to get 4 main colas, without FIM. The intention is to cut at the 3rd node (cut C) in order to develop the branches of nodes 2 and 3 as main ones. Does this make sense? Has anyone already had any experience with this?

If I topped at the 5th node can I fim at the 6th or 7th node? Or should I stick with topping and not confuse the plant with different techniques?

When to start 12/12
Hi people. My plants are on vegetation day 26 and are 8 inches tall. My tent setup can give them room for 15 more inches for a total of 23 inches height from soil to top. So, when do you think I should start 12/12 to maximize the plants height and yield? Thanks.

Are these autos stunned after topping
Are these auto's stunned? Seen few of ppl say on here can not top autos - that is a lie. You cant top autos once the pistils show. Proof. Side by side. 2 topped. 1 without.
