I have read some things in another post that made it sound like BUKU should NOT be topped as the stress will cause it to hermie. The BUKU I have seen growing (with no topping) seems to be a single cola type plant without any side branching. Is this typical of BUKU or will it get branchy later on? The plant in question is only 5-6 weeks old vegging under flouros, 6-7 sets of leaves.

Has anyone grown this and have some experience that can shed some light on this?

I topped my BUKU and it grew fine and didnt not hermie one bit. I lost half of it though because my buds became to heavy and broke a main stem... Shit happens I guess.

Grew BUKU in 2010. Great strain. I FIM'd mine. It branched nicely and got very bushy. I gave a cutting to my buddy and he put it outdoors. It looked beautiful. No hermies and it was great smoke too!

Cool, you got any pics or anything peculiar that you have noticed with it? Any signs of hermie? I assume since you're going 12/12 from the start, that you won't be topping this plant, right?
