If I'm growing outside and I want to stop the height of the plant at between 5 & 6 feet do I just cut the tops off when they reach that height? Do the plants get bushier & fuller. I have a yard with a 6 foot fence and don't want my neighbors seeing what I'm growing.
yeah, i asked about that in my other topic, and after about the second or third leaf set (based on what ive heard) you just keep topping or fimming it and it should grow two more side 'branches' out, making a "Y" shape. Then once it starts growing the next set top it again and it should grow into another Y shape. Someone correct me if im wrong, this is just based of advice given to me. You might want to have a look at Homgrowers journal as well.
what i would advise you to do is Top them at about 3 feet and then keep and Eye on them. I would Tie my plant down before topping it since this doesn't stress the plant out as much and you get better growth from the bOttom since it is getting More sunlight. this also makes it grow more like a bush. search for LST Peace wwonka
