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...

Hola amigos, quiero probar a hacer corte apical y una poda de bajos. La idea es hacer el corte apical 7 días antes de pasar a floración y la poda de bajos después de 3 días de haber pasado a floración. Es justo hacerlo así o debo usar otra táctica? Gracias anticipadamente.

Show I cut main stem?Should I get rid of the main stem and just grow the surrounding bud sites? The main stem is getting too tall compared to the other stems so thinking I have to do something to help them catch up? Or just cut the main stem entirely? Finished 1st week of 12 12 tonight.

When to top Curious when you guys are topping. I have just entered week 4 and the 5th real pair of leaves is just developing. Should I top now or wait for the 6th? Root system should be fine by now for the plant to handle the stress, right?

EXTREME topping :P How many nodes have you cut off of a photo before? I plan to grow my Gorilla Glue and Gelato together till harvest, yoink the Gorilla Glue, flip the Gelato to flower. I'd like an idea just how extreme I can go with my next "topping" to keep this plant as small as possible.
