Hey everyone, Im looking for some tips/opinions on topping. Should I top my plants or not??? What are the pros/cons When should this be done? Any input would be great, thanks. Oh and btw Im growing bigbud and northern lights fyi
i would top it, it yields more bud at the end, i didnt have any cons when i topped any of my grows i just had pros..... i would do it.
Yes, topping them will keep the canopy level with your lamp. The main stem cola would be the biggest of all the colas on a plant, but if you top that main stem, it will allow around 6 branches to catch up with eachother, allowing the light/lumen to be equally shared out to them, meaning that for sacrificing the main big cola, you will be getting around 6 good colas which will increase your yield, you will also have the buds from the smaller branches aswell.
