Usually safe to start topping after the 3rd to 4th node.

I would have topped by now from the looks of it. I usually top once the plant gets around 5 nodes. If they have been happy and healthy, they will probably recover quickly. As long as you are in veg, you can usually top whenever.

I want YOUR opinions on MY training <3 :)Hey people, this is not an important question, I just want to hear everyones opinion on the training I did today (supercropping, LST and defoliation). Does it look good in your eyes, was it too much, not enough or maybe too early / too late? And what should I do next? Thanks :)))

New nodes after topping very small, should I top more?I topped my plants a few days ago, but just the tips when the side nodes where just as little as a few mm. I've seen a lot of you topping like a whole bunch of the top. I mainlined my plants but I dont know if I should top them again so the nodes under the top become main nodes.

Topping Too Extreme?I was trying to even out the main growth area, as this plant stretched between 5&6th nodes. It looked like a palm tree. It's done now, but should I treat the wound?

Flower Stretch and Mainlining Flower Stretch Question When I flip to flower, she will stretch and about double in size. Does this include all the bare growth I have cleared off during toppings? ie, if the stalk at the bottom is 12" from the bottom to the start of the last topping, does that 12" count in?

Should i take off the hooks (LST)Someone here told me that it is not fair to lay the girls on the ground as i did, because the leaves touches the soil. Should i set them free to go up and continue the LST once the plant is some centimetres up? Or should i leave it like this and keep going? I dunno what to do.
