Topping Too Extreme?
OutForRealanswered grow question 4 years ago
Your topping is pretty clean even if like you said your plant was looking like a lil tree before that : it's now looking like a lil bush which is not that bad. Fortunatly you did your Xtrem topping on a photoperiodic plant so she'll recover soon enough. I hope that you have kept the apex to try to clone it !
You can put something to treat the wond but if you don't then the part you'v cut will dry just before the node and naturally "heal" , I know that there is a red kind of "glue" that peoples are putting on the plants scares or that they are using to make grafting : sorry I don't know the word in english to tell what it is.

If your tools are clean and disinfected before use, then you never have to worry about the wound and it can heal by itself. You could use aloe vera or even honey

Good looking plant you have there!
I think you will be fine but if you choose to treat it you can use wound treating gel tha'ts specific for this type of things or seaweed spray is good to and theres couple more stuff to use if you want. They won't hurt the plant that's for sure and they might even ease the stress that's caused by the cutting and maybe defo later. And there is always small chance of infection getting in if you hav not desinfected your cutting tool properly. I just wash my scissors with water before cutting and I remove the leaves with my fingernail and so far no infections whats so ever.

First time toppingMy second grow ever (and first photo period attempt) involves these White Widows. I want to top these at least twice. Currently have 3 multi leaf nodes. When's a good time to do the first - and then the second - topping? I've heard several opinions. Maybe I could do 3? Thx

Top the plant again or not?Hello growers, I have a question, I already top this 2 plants and I’m doing lst, and later I’ll use the scrog, but can I top it again? Should I do it or isn’t worth it?
I read it could lower the finally quantity yield, and that is some stress to the plant. Is it worth?

Should I top her a second time?I know some people believe topping autos is a bad idea but so far I've had great results. I have only ever topped autoflowers a single time. Never twice. Wondering if anyone has experience with topping more than once? If so, how did it turn out?Week 3

Day 31: Top After a FIM-job?Could I top this FIM from a week ago? I have lateralized all her branches, but feel there is a lot of catching up to do. Branch spread is ideal for this grow space, but comparatively low. Am I really effecting yield, if I am satisficed with the growth in place and take the top?Week 5

Topping In Tiny PlacesI’ve been topping my autos in a 3.8 sf stealth cabinet religiously at the 20ish day. In hydro that is around node 6-7. Would topping earlier giving the speed of growth that hydro provides, say at 3-4 node, make the plant less bushy and easier to manage? Ideas for tiny places?Week 1
