Did I top them too soon?

That's actually true (but I always do that I break off the first 2 branches, one on each side, so it doesn't put ENERGY INTO ANYTHING OTHER THAN GROWING WHILE IT'S IN TOPPING, and then there’s also more strength in the stem itself so it doesn't break or split (unless it's treated roughly). Good luck! I'm looking forward to seeing more of your experiment.

Yeah, but you can just do pure topping instead ;) (otherwise I usually hear and do it myself, I use YouTube, it explains it so my nephew pp 4 just wanted to do it;) . It's usually said to take from the first branches and then 3 shoots up, so 6 in total, 3 on each side, and clip. Otherwise, check out my Hydro and my KANNABIA indica cream, they are topped in both ways ;) best regards from Ngreen

I don't think so, buddy, you did it right, above the third to fifth. I see three in your photos. so it should fit. The only thing I would have done differently would be to set the cut a little higher so that the trunk is 0.5-1cm longer at the top. so that it doesn't tear so easily later💛🏼

You did good! It is sayed to top above the third node and you did. Some ppl like to have more branches under the topping but this is kust personal preference. Expect a grow of the stems which vome out if the nodes and prepare to LST them down where you want them. Good luck

No, its fine. Just give a little more time for recovering...

No such thing as too soon or too late, until she hits flower she is for all purposes a "weed" and will grow indiscriminate to how much you chop her up. Each time you chop you will lose a little time but it's nominal. If your doing autos I'd recommend just bending her over till she hits ground, hold her here a couple days to break dominance of central stem, no need to knife and slow things down. If your doing phoroperiod then it's less of a problem. Autos are very time sensitive if you want a decent harvest.

Can't reverse it..........why worry............they will recover...........not a problem.

Not too early, no. Looking healthy. Depending on how many branches you want to keep on the main stem, you may even want to top a node lower - the internodal distance between 1st and 2nd node, both of which seem to have healthy shoots, is shorter than the one between 2nd and 3rd node.

It looks perfect, stand back in awe as it explodes in growth. Great looking stalk on her good job.

Not at all! I like to do mine as soon as I can, gives more time for training. What are you running your light at? Increasing intensity a little may help keep the plant from stretching and give you shorter node spacing. Other factors such as strain can dictate node spacing as well but figured I'd throw that out there.

Nope.

Hey there the plants are looking good No you didn't top to early the plant looks health. Sometimes when there still small and don't have a bunch of roots they take time to get going. I hmgsrentee 1 week from now you will have alot of growth. Your right on the verge of the ppant starting to grow quickly . Just make sure to keep temp and humidity in a good range

Hi, I top my photoperiod and autoflowering plants always about 15 to 18 days after germination. As soon as they have 4 nodes and the stem is about 4-5mm thick. After that, I start with LST so that the plant grows nicely wide like my Membrana. At the moment, I also have a White Widow photo and it has already been topped. Hope this info helps you!
