Topping

hey 👋 It's no laughing matter, you're right to experiment! A few tips for the future: Here, you haven't really done a topping, but rather a fiming (https://2fast4buds.com/fr-en/news/all-about-fimming-autoflowering-cannabis-plants); why not, but the LST that follows will be different. You started a little too early; you have to wait until you have five nodes, and then cut the last one. After that, it's up to you whether you keep the branches from all four nodes or just two to make a cross (that's my favorite method). Remember to fill your pots more, as your plant's main root will dive into the soil until it hits the bottom before growing sideways, and it's the length of this root that determines the size of your future plant. Finally, I get the impression that you're watering a little too much, without providing all the necessary nutrients (we can see little spots on your leaves). Keep going & enjoy! 😉

Save yourself the grief buy airpots. Little pricy but will give way way more oxygen than fabrics or ceramics. Good luck Chris and Bran.

Going to create a high rh buffer zone with such high lips on the pot. 5 or 6 " Unless there is air beating down into the medium there is very little oxygen getting in there and the rh will be higher than.ambient. poor seedling is likely stunted from a lack of oxygenation. How much she will grow in each day/night cycle is dictated by many factors but mainly how much energy she converts successfully in said cycle. She will have a very hard time with cellular respiration in such a oxygen deprived environment. Without cellular respiration she is crippled to around 10% of her energetic potential. Only once you have her cycling fast, growing hardily then you can top knowing she will blow through it. Topping and lst is not recommended until you have the basics of growth down pat and she has noticeable growth each cycle.
