I topped my plant 2 or 3 days ago. I just pinched the top leaves off leaving a little life on the top.. It hasn't grown anything yet.. Did i do it wrong?

its gonna take longer than 2 days to grow back. topping your plant slows its growth for a while.... you should have waited a little to top but youll be fine just wait it will grow

usually when you top the point is for the branches underneath the top to grow into two main stems.... i doubt your plant had any branches to turn into stems. just wait and see what happenns

No, i was just trying to get two main stems so i can flower it.. Im just doing like 1 1/2 to 2 weeks of veg, because i have so many seeds.

Before you top again follow the link and read about topping. It will be helpful.

Im not sure topping on a 2 week veg will make any difference for you. Especially if your using seed. @ weeks isnt really long enough for your babys to large enough stems post topping to yield heavy.

im restricted to head height so i topped my plant about the same age, took about a week to show new stems ( i got 2 colas ) but in that week she became so bushy from the sides out , it was unbelievable, i left her for another 2wks in veg then into the flower room, she's been in there 3 days. i'm a newb and just experimenting.
