Topping?
ernest_twwganswered grow question 2 years ago
That is entirely up to you and how long you want them to be in a veg cycle.
I recommend not topping. Take off the top two leaves of each branch, instead. It will free up light to get to lower branch nodes and basically do the same thing as topping without actually topping the plant. This means it will have a much shorter recovery time, if it has a recovery time at all.
Some people top each branch 5+ times, so don't worry about overdoing it. If you want a thick plant, all the power is yours! Grow her how you want.

To cut or not to cut ?Hi buddies, my girl is in the 2' bloom week and I'm uncertain if I have to cut the flowers of the lower part of the buds or not. I want only dense buds and not lollipops. Here 3 pics: the flowers are circled in red, the branch from bottom in blu and the whole bud. Many thx 🙏

Mainline/Manifold: Trimming fan leaves after done with topping.Finishing up the topping portion of mainlining. P2 to be Nebula-Haze style and P3 to be Nugbuckets style. I'll be trimming growth tips other than from the 8 cola sites on each. Still keep un-shaded fan leaves below those levels? A lot online shows all lower fan leaves trimmed

LST and ToppingI 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 !
