Arrow TOPPING "how to"
permalink
Hey guys, here are some things i have learned and suggestions to TOPPING. First of all. TOPPING is almost fool-proof. FIMMING is an option yes, if you can get it to work right, but TOPPING is just a sure way of getting more than one main colas... and you do it repeatedly which is key.

What you wanna do is FIRST pinch of or cut right about the new stem growth on a node down from the TOP node.. Like seen here

9-25-09




This is where the plant will revert its main energy into growing the two new stems ride of the nodes. Generating you TWO TOPS as they are just new stem growth with all the plants main energy behind, now just divided in 2... yet since it gives the plant more leaf potential, the plant gets more energy and grows more roots and the bud size of the two main colas isn't just "half" what it would be with one..

You can see them respond to the TOPPING in these pictures

Good point. here you go... i would try to cut a little lower but right there will do.... cut where the red line is. Also this is just an example and not actually where i would cut... cut above the second from top node
