topping will make any strain bushier.

Topping controls height

If you don't have height restrictions I recommend against it, because one large cola tends to weigh more than 2 little ones.

This one was lollipopped and only grew to 40 inches under a 400w (ceramic metal halide 4k)
Its g13 gigabud

good point green, i have 3 topped and 1 untopped, out of those the biggest yeild looks like my single kola. i tried experimenting with it so i topped 2 for double kola's, 1 for triple kola, and 1 single kola. bushiest is def the triple but that dang single is tall and fat! one of my doubles may be comparable though, its close.

some strains respond better to topping, as do different phenos of diff strains, you just have to get a mom, take a clone try it and see how she likes it
