Topping adds time but more tops. I veg 4 weeks and top/take clones. Supercroppin and LST gets you more tops too. I like "bushes"

A friend of mine is growing the exact same thing and I would not recommend topping an auto. I'm sure you are aware that autos have a predetermined lifespan and topping them in most cases will drastically mess with your final harvest. However I have heard a hand full of people on here claiming to get good results from topping their own autos. Not worth the risk in my opinion.

He is talking about autos so I would assume your techniques of topping and cloning would not help much in this instance.

As I mentioned you can and some people do but the general consensus is that topping auto flowers is not desirable.
