    Yea you can top now. But just pull the the new grow. It is the smallest leaves at the very top. Do not cut the main stem. You can just pluck it with your fingers.

    I'd probably cut it about here...

    Here is one of my pics. You can see where I cut it and the resulting new tops on each side.

    ya dude looks fine. the picture where that Guy told u to top it is called Fim-ing (Fuck I Missed).. the difference is still an old age question. I believe the only difference iz theamount of stress givin to the plant. from my experinece, actually cutting the new growth make is grow a slight bit deformed and causes minor redardation in the tips of the blades. I find pinching out the top seems better. input?
