No, as discussed in a previous post.

Nice technique in here.... check this out... (himalaya gold lst 10 main colas)









The top is a trainwreck with 20 main head internodes lst and lollypopped

the bottom is my new himalaya clone with about 30 main head colas...


I vegged these plants for 4 weeks and cloned the bottom for internodes and left the top node to begin the topping process... every 2 or 3 days the new veg would be able to get topped again and so this process was repeated 6-7 maybe more however the results I imagine are going to be unimaginable since this is the first time ive tried this.... wish me luck +rep everyone !

He's gone over this a million times.. The plant's potential is determined by its root system, light intake, and environment.. Topping puts more production sites and fan leaves in the light's sweet spot, so light can be used more effectively, so with all other factors being equal, you're using your light better so you should see better production overall.. Shorter/stouter plants are easier to manage, and they tend to yield less scraggle down below, so your bottoms should be higher quality smoke..

Hey UB and Born2Kill!! Great words, I love this shit!! I stayed up all night crammin this thread into my brain.

The only question I have is about Autoflowerig strains. I know you have topped them and the only thing I was wondering is whether you still waited for them to get to there 6th node or so or do you top earlier since they flower earlier??

I only ask because they flower so early that I didn' know if they wouldve started flowering by this height and I know you've mentioned b4 not to top in flowering.

Thanks!!!
