I usually let my plants go to about six or seven nodes before I top.

Depends how much room you have, no height then waiting till node 6 you is gonna have a tall plant on your hands! I usually do 4 as I don’t have the height at the moment, advice is at least wait till you have 4 nodes or above

you can top it anytime you wish. I top mine when they hit my veg lights, blindly, with sheers even

Depends on your space.
4 nodes minimum.
Want taller plants ... then wait longer.
There's no one size fits all.

Depends on how much grow space you got to work with, Strain and technic your going to use, SCROG etc.

For me, I grow them short and either will SCROG of just train. So, I clip at the 3rd node and keep pinching the new growth for a month before flowering.
:peace:

I am trying to grow in a small area I have already topped mine she was working on her 3 node when I did.
I think it is more of a personal preference and how much space u have to work with.
