Topping time
Le_Cheanswered grow question 2y ago
I advise you to wait until next week, remove the 6th node, you can count the number of new nodes just after the 5th, that's what I do.

When I top, I wait till there are three nodes and then take the growth off above the third. This will give me 6 main branches to work with.
If you prefer more main branches you can go more. The consensus is always how long your wanting to veg the plant before you flip to flower. How big to do want the plant to be? All this factors into the decision. At three nodes in, then top, I’m able to flower a nice even canopy starting week 4 of veg and the plant has 6 giant colas in the end.
I hope this helps.

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

Fuck. First week of 12-12 and I almost accidentally top this plant. Broke the stem enough to cause it to bleed on one side. Think it will hold/heal?Accidentally broke one side of this stem while attempting LST through a lattice. My idea was, instead of simply topping, to bend the plant downwards into the lattice to keep it down. Problem I'm trying to solve is plants keep growing too close to lights. Thoughts? ✌️

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.
