Default is this Topping done properly

have i topped this correctly, the new leaves that started to grow had been burned by the light so i pinched them off Click the image to open in full size.
will these fan leaves grow into new stems or is it the liittle sprouts that grow inbetween the fan laves and the stem that grow into the new growth

The ones at the base of the each fan leaves will be the new growth that turns into your new shoot or stem.

The more I look at your pic. I am curious if you have 3 fan leaves coming out of the main plant stalk at the same height. If so your plant might be a "TRIP".

Normally you would have 2 fan leaves on opposite sides of the main stalk. Where your fan leaf meets the stalk you will have growth that turns into a new stem or budsite. also referred to as side branching. "Trip" is short for "triploid".Spell check that one. In rare occasions you will run across trips, which you will have three fan leaves and branchs at the same height.

All the triploids i've grown out have eventually grown out of this and budded normally, but not saying it isn't possible.
