Topping is when you cut, or pull the grow tips off

Makes the plants branch out and grow alot bushier

thats cool.at what stage should a plant be topped

I like topped my plants when they reach 5 / 6 node. just pinch off above the 5 / 6 node using your thumb and finger or a clean razor blade. this will creat 2 main colas so you will get more bud

I wouldn't. Autos are ususally bushy anyway and mine (white dwarf) have always had several large colas without topping.

I did this to my plants on Monday, just in four days you can see the four new tops already. I highly recomend it.
