But wait! is that lst or hst and who the fuck gets to decide? LOLi think the easy thing to do would be to fim it, wait a little bit, fim those (that gives you 4 "main" cola) then you can bend stuff around.
fimming is just pinching the very tiny bit of new growth. you can do this now
Says who? I've never had a plant stressed from topping- have you?Topping is more stressful on the plant than LST. Topping is “HST” or High Stress Training...
I would top after 4. then in a couple days remove the bottom 4 branches and leaves. Then I would top the two top branches after the third node. Then veg at least a week befor flip.Thank you sir.
That makes much sense.
If you were to Top instead, when would YOU top? after the 4th or 5th node?
For a first time grower, what is easier on the plant? Tying or Topping?
That's a solid, proven method. Thoes bottom branches are gonna hurt yirlds, reduce airflow, risk disease.......I would top after 4. then in a couple days remove the bottom 4 branches and leaves. Then I would top the two top branches after the third node. Then veg at least a week befor flip.
Its your plant, you can do anything or nothing to train. What is your goal in training? Are you trying to keep them short? Are you after maximum yield, or maximum relative yield? Do you want huge trees? Do you just want pretty plants?I think I am going to top after the 4th node as suggested by a couple people now. I want to do a little more research as I like to compare information from different sources but you guys are my most trusted source of information :)
So if I top the plant, I do not also bend it to do LST tying correct?
You know you’re going to top tonight
In that case, I'd top tonight, veg 10 days and flip to 12-12. You should easily harvest enough to last you while you make more.No real specific goal other than a healthy harvest. Not necessarily maximum yield. I just want a good learning experience and not to overwhelm myself with too much or my plants. I can do more as I become more experienced. I am going to Top them. It is just a matter of deciding the best time now. Whether I go ahead and do it tonight or wait another day.

I just saw where you are in 3 x 3. With 4 plants I'd top today and go 10 more max. Probably only 7 depending on how fast they grow.Really? Only 10 more days of Veg after tonight you reckon?
I have a SCROG net but only planned on using it to help support my plants branches
You might need it to control stretch. Just depends on strain- wait and see. 3x3 is pretty small for 4 plants.Really? Only 10 more days of Veg after tonight you reckon?

how tall is the tent? Never used a 315 but it probably needs at least 18" to the canopy. Another foot for the pot. Imo shorter is better, top once and use the scrog if needed. Denser buds and no larf.Yeah. will be interesting to see how fast they grow. I figure I want a final plant height of around 4-5 feet, sound reasonable? (I was told to flip when they get to half the size I want them to be at the end)
Never grew skywalker, but I've seen og's that stretch more than I like.Yeah. will be interesting to see how fast they grow. I figure I want a final plant height of around 4-5 feet, sound reasonable? (I was told to flip when they get to half the size I want them to be at the end)
They look awesome. I think I might see a bit of leaf curl up. How close is the light?View attachment 1115557

Topped them and gave them a nice watering.
