I was originally planning on growing 2 plants but I've only a small area and after reading about topping I'm thinking of growing one plant and keeping it stocky. Will this be the equivelent to 2 plants (1 plant the width of two).

Also, If I only want 1 plan how many seeds should I germinate? If the seed I plant turns out to be male what can I do with it (other than starting again).

Those are the pitfalls and the perils bro. You only grow one plant, you take the risk of it being male. You could grow one massive oak tree of a plant, but if it's male, it's all for shit. how big is your space, anyway? you might be able to grow more than you think.

The space is about 40x9.5x18 (HxWxD). I was planning on growing 2 but could 1 produce the same (maybe more) buds if well topped?

To be honest, no. Mainly because I don't know what it means but also because it sounds like STD

Can you expand? (Not physically, just explain what LST is [I'll google it now anyway]).

Is a cola a main stem? So if I untie it will there not be a bunch of plants sticking out of one plant? I'm a little lost on the reason for it (...to google...).
