    I wonder if they were daft enough to top a plant in flower? That would definitely spoil the quality, especially if it causes them to turn hermaphrodite

    That was my thought and the only way I could see topping fucking with the plant . I also don't like back budding or back building where you snip a little off the top of the bud . Not something I'd recommend . I like to keep stress levels down in flower and if anything a little stress at the very end just to up the thc production a little

    I wonder how they grow weed when entering into thc strength competitions?

    I'd like to bet they don't top.

    Strength increase might be minimal but I would say that the bud from a single central cola would be of a higher quality. Just only very slightly.

    Tip no is still well worth while though and I do it every grow. I'd rather a 30% + increase in yield than a 0.5% increase in thc content.

    Still if you were to argue it scientifically I would say that an untopped plant would produce better bud on the middle cola. Just seems like you'd expect as much as that's how nature intended it.

    I'd say topping it works out better mate. Without topping you get 1 giant dank nug and everything else is b grade if you top it you get 10+ big dank nugs and a lot less lower crap. It won't reduce the quality of the bud, it'll just give you more higher quality weed.

    I've heard this too in the course of learning about topping and fimming. Seems to be a nasty rumor, but I can't speak from experience. I wonder if they might have meant that is reduces the vigor of the central stalk. This is desirable if you are LST or trying to shape the canopy. You want the auxins to be redirected to the surrounding growth.

    Scrogging will give you better overall results because like in a couple post back there will be no lower buds to speak of so in general each bud should have the same quality with a better overall light coverage imo
