There have been quite a few discussions lately about the pros and cons of topping.
In many instances it was agreed that the possible benefits of which depended very much on strain. For example, it is well known that Blueberry produces it's highest yields only when topped - whereas Chronic produces more from one single cola than two smaller ones.
A prime example are the plants pictured below. The strain is Buzzberry (Chatterwok), Blueberry x Bubblicious. Also known as Bubbleberry (Sagmartha), but names differ for legal reasons as they are different breeders.
Can clearly see that the plant on the left that was topped once has produced 4 or 5 times the amount of bud - even though grown in same grow room under same conditions.
