You could top it now. Your at that stage where it's time to train and get hands on.

You can top above the 4th, preferrably the 5th node.... Good luck...

Too late to top these autos? I'm at the end of 3rd week.Should I have topped this one a couple days ago? These girls have been very vigorous. The only thing that gave me pause was these miniscule white pistils right here. Can I snip em, you think? Or bad idea? And if yes, should I FIM instead?

Topping In Tiny Places I’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?

Did I wait too long to top?I just topped, main-lined, and defoliated. The stem is about the thickness of a pencil, and the nodes are very tightly packed. The reason I waited so long to top was because I wanted to clone the cuttings and give them to a friend. My question is, did I wait too long to top?

I have a full tent of plants with level trained canopies. I couldn't get Banana Purple Punch B to bend at the top, so I just tied down the side branches. However, I'm afraid of her growing taller than the rest of the canopy. Should I top her?
