When to top a plant

    I have some plants 4 weeks old. haven't done anything to them. should I top them or just leave them. They were grown from seed 4 weeks ago. they are about 10" tall.

    Also, if I top them now, could I try to root the tops and flower them to determine sex.

    Thanks

    rooting the tops will probably not work, i just tried :(.

    I think if your plant has grown at least 3 nodes, it's safe to top. I just topped mine @2 weeks at 8 inches (from clone not seed).

    u can easily top those babies now dude, but it depends how much space u have and how tall they'll be in the end. i dont recomend topping any indoor plant more than a few times. And yes u could root and flower those tops like a normal clone, but i'd just make clones and start flowering the plants now instead. to root, flower and sex the clones will take weeks.
