I agree Ive topped all my violators and they are resilient bushes most of the people ive seen grew them straight up and theyre having to stake theyre one cola id rather stake 8 colas but i dont think ill have to because they have tree branches

toppin is the best but its a longer veg, LST is mandatory indoors if you dont top imho

I have a 30 day limit on my veg time. Only cause i have a deadline. So do u think topping/fimming would still be a good idea if i dont have an extra 2wks to veg them? Maybe top a week from flower? thanks

Yea im indoors. Under a 600 with a few fox farms soil grows n a couple DWC(1st timer) to compare their growth rates and overall quality as a whole. But i was thinking of trying a few techniques especially LST.

Yea ive heard that BB's are kinda very highly sensitive, lol, so i was just thinking about doing LST on that one.

true. hopefully they speed up a bit and hit that fifth node in like ten days. then ill top and was thinking about taking that first node and make those clones idk or just top at the fourth node when its time. Has any1 done a DWC grow on this thread?
