Topping

I wait until the 6th node opens, then cut it down to the 4th node. The 6th and 5th will be right on top of each other so cutting it down to 4 is about the only option.

honestly you can top as soon as the plant has its second node....never top a seedling with only 2 leaves...best to have a bit of patience though and allow the plant to grow a bit.

my 2¢ topping is over rated...you want more colas just tie the plant down and let all the side branches grow upward.
