Finally taken off . Transplanted fox farm ocean,, 5 gal pots,,.big drink,lights at 100% at 24". There popping up fast daily visible growth,, When to top? 5 set cut at 3rd ? View attachment 4782599
I topped my plant 2 times total. First time at the 4th node, second time after the top grew 2 new nodes. That and about 4 extra weeks of veg and I got this. If you train your plant right, you would only need to top once. My tent is a 4x4 and it filled the whole tent. Could have had a 3.5 inch trellis instead of a 6 inch for more tops. But meh, still got over a pound on one plant

If you want to mainline, you can let grow to 5 or 6 then top at 3rd, but it really depends on how you want to shape your plant and how many bud sites you want. In general, topping a bigger plant will slow down growth less than topping a small plant, but it doesn't really matter much if veg time isn't a concern.
