It appears to be plenty healthy enough and has enough nodes. You can top it where ever you want for the most part. What I do is wait for 4-5 nodes then chop mine just above the second node. Everyone may have a little different way of doing theirs:

If it is an auto, disregard my comment. I know nothing about topping autos

If you are referring to using your cutting for a clone, I do not do clones so I don't want to speculate. Someone else will need to help you with that one.

You can top it and stick the top in some soil with root starter.

Cut just above the second node at an angle with CLEAN scissors. Put cutting in h2o immed. I can't tell exactly but if you let plant grow about 3 more inches you may get a little better clone.

you're good to top.

make sure your scissors are clean.. I soak my scissors in 93% or more iso alcohol to disinfect.

I usually top 4 times before flipping to flower.

this is a nirvana blue mystic i just put into flower 1 week ago. she was topped 4 times and also lollipopped (taking off bottom 3rd of plant where shit nugs would grow).

any photo period strain I always do 2 things.. top multiple times and lollipop.. I dont do any lollipopping during flowering either .. I do all the topping/lollipopping in veg. then give it atleast 10 days to recover then flip to 12/12.

here is that blue mystic I have lollipopped and topped.





You'll get "Y" shaped branching after the topping works. that will look like this. Click to zoom in on the second picture and I show you what topping will look like after you've done it.
