Dude!!! If you posted this from the start first answer would of been right. Every thing is great. If your going to make a mother out of the first pic you need to top it. Got some claw going on in the 2nd pic but that happens. Your golden and plants are healthy.

So they are good and healthy? I wasnt gonna top them for now to say the truth as it is my first time and dont wanna ruin them and how many nodes to top not sure of this I am abit scared to top :S

also are they good to clone? how many clones canI take from one plant?
 
If it's a mom you need to top. It's easy look at the top nodes and cut 80% off it. And You can top after the 4th node no worries. And yes everything looks great.
 
ok so stupid question do you count the node touching the soil to the first set of leavse ? doent it have 5 nodes or 6 nodes not sure about that iether trying to do everything correctly sorry for being so lame :S
 
ok so I have no idea how oto count nodes I read somewhere a node is the stem where the 2 internodes meet :s
 
Basically a node is where you have 2 fan leaves coming off the stock/stem. If you cut the center of each node you create 2 stems that make new nodes. And you can do this many times. For more info on this search SCROG. So basically a nodes is where you see 2 fan leaves.
 
ohh ok cool so where is the best place to cut these ? and what ever I cut would it be as a clone or not :S

No. The part you cut will be the clone and what you leave will start 2 new branches. This is what gives you many colas not just 1 main.

I was gonna take the clones from the branches not the main stem never saw it being done like this wow I suck
 
If you going to make a clone. You should count back 4 nodes. Hold the top in 1 hand cut just above the 4th node. What is in your hand is now the clone. Dip in cloning solution or just water. Now the location you cut will heal but also split in 2 so now you have 2 stems. And twice the nodes once there ready.
 
ok so the plant will basically be cut in half right?like 25% of it so that about 75% of the original plant will be there sorry just dont wanna ruin it :s
 
just checkin in, you can either top or train, topping can take off a few days from veg cycle but for a mother its beneficial because it responds by being more bushy. good post warlock.
 
just topped 4 plants and cloned 3 of them with juicy roots and put them in rockwool hope they survive :s
 
so i have another question if i flower all 13 plants right and there are half males when do i cut them down ?straight away or should i leave them to maybe make some hash for about 3 weeks not sure or just cut them down when they show there first sign
