Should I top It?
gamberrostarted grow question 9mo ago
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

Topping, lstHi beautiful ppl! I topped and bended my plants over a week ago. Most of them reacted great, and became more bushy. One haven't developed any side branches, and none on the place of topping.. just same number of fan leaves continues to grow 😕 what can it be?

Lollipop autoflowersHi guys, this is my fat banana auto. She's about 4 weeks old and growing happy. I have her in a very small pot cause of my space restrictions. She started flowering very early, and I'm concidering lollipopping her. Would that be ok timing to do so?

ToppingHi! How many main branches are best left after topping? In my last grow I left 8 branches (4 nodes) and it was too difficult to train them. Leaving 4 main branches in "plus" shape would be a good solution? Which option will save me more time (fast veg is important for me)? ThanksWeek 3

Top now or wait? Growing 4th node.I'm about a week into veg, plants look to be about 4-6 inches tall. Most are going into their 4th node. Should I wait longer or is now a good time? Also, should I wait for all plants to be at around the same stage or should I top the ones that are ready first?
