questions on topping

This plant is 17 days old from sprouted seed. I have heard about topping and that it can increase your yield and shape your plant better is this gal ready to be topped and where do you do the snipping I'm guessing it would be right in the middle of the plant right now the two little things popping up ?

I agree with Dr. Nick on this one. As my younger seedlings are in solo cups I don't look to do any topping or FIM'ing until the plant has grown wider than the top of the cup. That's not a rule or anything - just a mental gauge I use.

Good luck, BigSteve.

Alrite thanks guys

I use the 2nd lateral as the best indicator

just pinch out he growing tip

and clone her ..!

and again on the 4th lateral if required

good luck
