    Default Should I top here?

    Hi guys,

    I topped this young lady above the third node previously.
    She’s growing nicely in her new pot.
    Question is, should I top the tallest 2 parts which are now growing taller than the centre stem?

    This is going to be my only plant in the scrog in my wardrobe, so I want to veg for as long as possible and get as bushy as I can.
    What you reckon?

    Cheers

    Are you still running a 250w HPS - if so, look at potential weight of harvest (Dried)

    Yeah I will be for this one.
    What you mean mate? Potential weight is 1g per watt right? Although I’ve never got near that yet ha

    Yeah she’s really looking good now.
    I just have her a good watering.
    Really think I should top her again though, but not sure. Maybe the new growths are too big now, so should wait for the next one?

    yup, 1g per watt or, 250gr in total.... now, consider it as ounces - 8.8

    How many colas do you want that 8.8 ounces to be? Don't top too many times as the trimming will start to increase as the buds have less weight

    Ah I see, thanks for explaining.

    I actually just changed my mind.
    Had a think and I can let my mate use this wardrobe to practice with my deformed one.

    I can actually put this one in my tent
    I have a dimmable ballast so could use 400w or 600w I’m there. The only thing I’m worried about is the heat, as it will be the height of summer when going through flower, so maybe 400w as easier to control the temps then.
    I think the tent is 1.8x2x1m
