I've heard the descriptions but is there anyway someone can show me a picture of exactly what it is. I am getting ready to top my plant, and was told to do it above the 2nd node to get 4 colas. But I don't want to fuck it up so yeah

a node is each new developing "stem"

at 35 sec the spot above the 2 big leaves is where the "new node" is developing

im new too but i believe where you see four branches coming out from the stem man. Idk, do you have a height issue is that why you're topping?

No, I am topping because it creates 4 colas instead of one. So theoritically quadrupling my yield
