Just wanted to post a quick update to the results of my first time topping, and I think we can confirm it as a success so far. I ended up playing it safe, and topped one Chem Reaper and one Chem Master (I chose the stronger looking plant from each). They both responded well, with new tops clearly growing out within 72 hours of the snip. However, I think I must have accidentally (ironically enough :giggle:) FIMmed, rather than topped, the Chem Master and it looks like I'll get 3 new tops instead of 2!
On a side note folks, I have to say that these babies have some freakin' vigor during veggin' so far. They went from the last pics to the size below (appox. 2.5 inches to 9 in. tall) in a week. Maybe that's not that great for others more skilled than me, but I was impressed, so thanks go to you Mr. Swerve! :smiley_joint:
Anyways, the pics are...

damm, nice, yours look flawless....mine became rootlocked very quickly and perhaps very nute sensative. Just put them under the 1000w HPS, so they should start growin now. I have a grow log I just posted if you want to see them. Thanks for posting the pics.
Thanks for the kind words dazed, I just checked out your thread, and I'm sure they'll turn around soon enough, especially with talent around here helping out and Swerve watching over...Oh, and no prob on the pics, and I put some more below to check out.
Those look real good Leao!! They got a few wks or so but yeah top those girls and tie them down like True Grit said! You'll have the sweetest bushes in town my friend..
Thank you sir! I'm hoping they'll turn out to be the best buds around, it's only a shame I can't share them with all of you here.....yet :evilgrin:
Hope you all like the pics,
peace
