    Is plant 1 Topped appropriately? 1st pic

    Plant 2 ready for topping? 2nd pic

    Plant3 I messed up im sure. Thought I topped but think I just cut stem n height for no reason. X.x

    Kinda early to be topping in my opinion. I prefer above the 4th or 5th node. Can't tell from the image but hopefully you didn't damage the 2 side branches.

    Minimum should be 3 internodes but I would say 4 unless crazy stretch

    I have done it on the 2nd lateral before

    but in your case a little larger

    would be ideal

    Let it grow 5 or 6 nodes then top to 3rd or 4th depending on if you count the first set of fan leaves or not. Also make sure plant is healthy when you top.

    The undeniable benefit of patience; the first was topped after the third node (too early) and her elder was done after the fifth (just right) - the lesser will catch up but it's gonna be an uphill struggle with this one.
