I am a big fan of controlling the rate of growth through removing lower growth sites... I get 1 top and 7-8 side branches that top out just 2 inches below the main cola. buds are the same size whether on the main cola or the side branch.... I should put something together, thread.Well from what I've seen on my plants, going for more than 4 colas auxins get distributed unevenly, so some colas start growing up, some grow very slow. Even four colas you need to pull one and release another constantly checking them to form an even looking crown. 8 colas would be too difficult to make all even.
But somebody has to confirm or deny this, cause I'm still new at growing, just using common sense..
Basically, it get s 6-8 colas... no topping involved.
