Topping autos is fine but the timing is essential with only a one or two day window (ime) and you've probably missed the boat already.
Next time.
Best of luck.

Ive only ever seem one person top an auto and it was on its 3rd true node. But most people say never to tpp an auto as it wont recover in time and end up creating very low quality buds. But on the other hand the one guy I have seen do it had quite a decent harvest so up to you. But yeh he did it at the third true node

Alright this grow I wont top, but second grow i'll run the same seeds (won't be exactly the same obviously because not clones) but I'll top at the third node, and see what kindof difference I get with them.
I guess topping would be better with slower autos, maybe I'll try an ak47. SO MANY OPTIONS SO MUCH CHOICE.
The colours are so pretty tho.
Its always good to see new growers doing diarys. Stay on here and youll be a pro grower in no time. Theres some really good growers on here.

Topping an auto isn't the problem it's made out to be, it's just getting her at the right time...
The 3rd (true) node is always where I have topped at, it's grabbing the plant at the end of its veg time & beginning of its flower time. If you wait for the 4th true node, she will already have started to flower and the window of opportunity is lost

i meant that i'd top it on the third node when that comes out, not that i'll lob the only bit of plant that's there.
I also prepped another pot & germing another seed because why not, I was bored.
