I agree, with Hashy and Grow_for_happniess Topping "removing a tip of a plant to make two new growth sites" no not needed Cloning "removing a smaller cutting/brach from the plant to clone out and make a new plant" Can be used, helps it root but not needed, can clone with out gel taping "closing/sealing a wound of a broken branch" no not needed You can Top a plant and using the top bits to clone, however you need to take more off then normal and the best growth to clone comes from lower on the plant vs the top tips. Good Luck!

If your referring to taping up a break then no you don't need and hormone jelly. If you mean after topping again no need. If you mean for cloning then it's advisable, can be done without but it takes a lot longer for the clones to root.

By tapping do you mean cloning? If so then yes, use rooting gel it will help with success rate.
