    Default topping?

    Hey guys quick question...this plant has ben vegging for a little over a month now, and its gonna continue to veg until i get home in may. This plant is about a foot tall now and im afraid it might get too tall for my 2' tall grow box. Do u think it would be smarter to top it or just let it grow and see what happens?

    there's also low stress training(LST) as an option to keep it short

    I usually always top my plants after the fan leaves with 7 individual leaves have fully sprouted. In other words, at about the 4th or 5th node is when I top. I don't do it because of height or light limitations. I do it because I believe the smaller buds are more manageable. Less mold to worry about and I don't have a huge fricking stem growing through my bud. From the first time I topped a plant I have topped ever since.

    i think toping and lsting would be a good combination... more branches to train out... imo

    check out the grow faq http://www.rollitup.org/view.php?pg=faq on how to do both

    plus it look likes your plant is stretching a bit... would it be possible to get more light on the plant? adding some cool 6000k cfls would help keep it a bit squatter

    Default what precisely is topping about?

    Hey guys, talking about topping (I'm growing for the first time), how precisely should it be done? Do I simply cut it at the top of the main stem? ... don't want to do anything wrong if anyone knows a good thread about topping, please refer me, thnx
