So im wondering how old (about) my plants should be before I chop the top?
The whole point of chopping the top is so 2 new tops grow out right? This is what im assuming...anyways, any help would be appreciated. ^_^

it depends on how many branches you want below. for mothers i remove the whole bottom 2-3 branches then top it at 4 nodes then top those side branches at 2 nodes. then i let her go. big ol bush.

also, when should I cut a clone?

i let the branch get 5-6" before cut the end off for clones. once again keep in mind you have to leave branching sites for future growth. look at the structure of the plant and try to visualize where it's going and where you want it to go. you can train it to do loops if you want. i have.
