Top or not top this 7 foot beast ?

I did a little experiment with topping all but one of my plants this year, it’s turning out really well but the sucker is over my fence (almost 7 feet) what is everyone’s take on topping it at that height? I’m in Boston area, popped indoors like March 5th , it’s either jack herer or train wreck ( don’t trust stoners to right shit down) thanks everyone image.jpg

If you want it to not get taller, then top it. If you dont mind the height then let her be!

Should I take that as top it?

Top or super-crop.
I have a Jack Herer running outside this year.
She's quite leggy so I built a cage around her and I'm employing some serious bondage to reign her in.

I don’t know which it is the dam leaves look so similar, let me know if the leaf pattern resembles yours, are you in ground or bag? I’m a little concerned about the finish time I’m in New England. I’m training the heck out of it as well..

I’m thinking maybe I will, it’s just insane given it’s going to grow until October, good greef what did I get myself into? Cage time for sure bamboo isn’t going to cut it.

I’m thinking I just want to slow the bitch down to get the rest of the plant to fill in, I’m training it but it is resembling a x mas tree. Is that called pinching?
I'd just pick the top off and then the plant will focus its energy on the other branches. I guess you could call it pinching. I still call it topping though.
