Hopefully they aren't stunted. They are autos so I figure if they aren't stunted than they will have a good time period to recover. When is the earliest you topped? ( Worst case scenario I stunted them and I start over)

A lot of people top them once early in the grow and say it works better. I've never topped any as I was growing them outside so didn't have to worry about them growing up into the light. Kinda hoped they would but I'm more of a realist than to expect that. :)

Seems there's people totally for it and people totally against it. I'll post results in my journal.

If the plant is healthy, recovery from a topping is about a day.
I usually top my plants once they hit their 4th or 5th leafset. Any earlier than that and there arent enough remaining leaves to support fast growth

I do that as well with my photoperiod plants but the issue whether or not to top autos. I'm not going to be growing autos any more so a-topping-I-will-go! :)
