Exclamation when is too late to top?
permalink
im 10 days in to flowering and i have only one skunk now (5 out of six were males). I tried fim prune a few weeks ago and it didnt take very well, ended up with funny looking leaves and still has it terminal bud. should i top it again? my grow box is like 35 inches tall and the plant is like 10 inches tall now.

or should i just LST it sideways so it take up more space horizontally?


thanks in advance

you can trim anytime you want to, it will just make the plants take longer and cause stress.......

generally people say that 2 weeks from when you start flowering is the latest you want to trim.

I wouldnt do it.. The only thing i would cut is the lower part of the plant at 10 days. Your plants are about to flower already, unless it is sativa dominant which takes a while to flower. Your plant will recover and flower, but its not gonna be as developed as it would have been if you didnt, so why top it. What is your reason for topping it now? Your only gonna get less bud.

instead of topping I would clone right now before they start flowering, just take some of the lower branches and it shouldnt hurt to much. I cloned these ww at around day 10.

,The whole point of topping your plants is to get more growth. Why would you top her if she ,is no longer in the veg stage?
