whats up guys i got a big fuckin problem, i think. I knowingly has to top my plant due to burns from the CFL's falling on the plant and sitting on it for however long. So with that known my dumb fuckin brother went ahead and did what he thinks was the way to do it, so here are a few pics of what he did...its up to you guys whether i kick his ass or not, is this plant still fine????? if so what do i change if anything, he claims its fine.

There's the link to topping...It doesn't look right to me.He cut some side branches off,there. It doesn't really look "topped".You're supposed to get it in the V...lemme see if I can find a pic......http://www.indoormarijuanaseeds.com/advanced-indoor-cannabis-growing-techniqes/fimming-topping-cannabis-plants.html
Here ya go.It looks like he just chopped off a bunch of branches.If it was burnt with a cfl, you could have just let it grow out, it would have gotten better.

He is a fucking idiot. why did he cut branches? it'll be alright but that will slow you down a lil. Plus even if your leaves burn they will recover except for the crispy parts. I would keep anyone away from my plants who does stuff they think is right without actually knowing what they are doing. Thats a scary kinda person to have in a garden

alright ill update some pics in a few days on here, thanks. Good thing is ive got plenty of backups (sprouts) if i have to yank it. This plant is 40 days old!!!! its sooooo small because i did not have a sufficient sized pot but now i do so it wont matter really to me.

It will survive but, it will be something resembling a genetic mutation of some sort.
I had something similar happen in which my brother dropped off some extra clones that he didn't have room for.
They had been hacked something similar to your pics. I kept them aside anyways because I had plenty of room.
Anyhow, they look freakish now. If I didn't have a huge room going I might have been very upset by the results.
Now it's more like a sideshow to my Kush and Shiva Skunk. Never reached it's potential but it will sure produce.
