yup thts it...just watch some Vids if ur better with seeing it vs reading it...very simple tho...and yes definitely ups ur yield...the more tops the more filled out ur canopy will be vs just 1 or 2 huge colas...basically lets u utilize all ur grow space and get the most out ur light:cool:


Can I top every single branch per say other then the main branch, just did it right now,

Here is a before and after ( the first two pics are of them BEFORE) (The 3rd Picture is them AFTER)

My tip to the OPer roll the top node off twist tops down and tie them do a daily hand pound to just to get more of a scrogged out plant more tops the better. If theres is one odd tall top brach il almost snake bit it (twist with both hands opposite ways) to soften the stem and bend down as far as possible. Becareful some strains dont bend and seem more hollow good luck and happy growing.

sure can ,i multiple top all the time thru out my grow...it really is the way to bush them girls or lst,or supercrop..i tend to do all 3 lol...but ya u can multiple top at the same time,,,,and jimmy1life is also correct in lst or tieing thwm down,,i also do tht lol...once u learn ur pheno after a run or two u will know exactly how she grows and reacts to ur topping or lsting ...its when growers first start and switch up there strains too much tht they don't fully get a handle on there program...i was guilty of tht myself...im def gonna stay in the thread to see how u do this run..there's alot of solid guys on here and more bitches then a "hoodrat convention" but thts the cyberworld...if u can weed out the bullshit u wil def be successful this run and many more..there's alot of here who just like to help out..i had some guys on here help me many many years ago and it feels good helping out,plus there is a fad about new growers giving u str8 bullshit information to feel like they know shit and it kinda breaks my heart when i see the shit,so i try and share my experience the best i can...dont know why this msg just went soo long lol,,,i just hit a bowl and am happy with life ryt now i guess haha...keep us posted man,i wanna see u succeed,,,much peace and love,,,stay green:peace::blsmoke:

o ya and also when ur plants recover and start growing th new shoots,i would recommend either topping again or tie the branches down like above member mentioned..it will bush ur girls out...remember u are aiming for a flat even canopy..the idea is "Multiple" nice sized colas/buds vs "1 or 2" huge buds/colas..it will def be worth it...

If topping plan on vegging 2 weeks after if top and flip the buds will still double but be smaller. since having to form still. I top alot first few weeks in then usually start lsting them down and wider week or so before flipping cycles.
Good luck remember less is better 600ppms is all i use few flushes here n there clean the medium.

dont hit the switch for 12/12 ryt after topping...it causes a tad bit too much stress on the girls..instead of focusing on budding and flowering they will focus more on repairing where u topped ...same applies to rooting supplements for flower..like superthrive and the sorts,,they will do gr8 even in flower but the girls will focus more on root development vs flowering...so all in all,if enviroment and the sorts are DIALED in,no matter what u do,,the girls will grow nice,,but by us controlling everything to the girls,we want to have the plant focus more on we work so hard to do and thts flowering nice beautiful buds...good luck and u will be fine,,like i said,try and learn how to distinguish the bullshit from the real on these forums and old-heads and good gardeners will def give u valuable gems of knowledge to utilize in your grows..peace and love,stay green:peace::blsmoke:

Yep my 2 weeks after topping is just to let the new nodes form and make a better bigger flower is only reason i do wait to 12 12 um after topping. Just pulling top over and letting new nodes be tops is awesome does it too. You can do all kinds things people will say all kinds of things just have fun becareful nothing is gonna burn down the house lol . happy growing

Yes, Big Buddha's Blue Cheese. This is my first grow with both of these strains. They are pretty easy to tame. Here's the Big Buddha (currently 33" from top of soil) as of yesterday:
