How do I "top" my plants?

[greenthmb]

I have been looking online for some tutorials on how to properly "top" my plants. I have sativa skunk strains growing outdoors, and they are about 5-7 branches/nodes in height. I live in the city, so I would like to keep them on the shorter/bushier side. Any advice on how to "top" them properly? I don't want to kill my babies!! Also, do I trim the yellowed leaves off from the bottom of the plant, or leave them? Any help is appreciated!

leavee the leaves they will fall off if there not doing anything, the only thing there gunna do is collect more sunlight for ur babies, topping u cut of the main stem just below the newest growth, check on youtube they got loads of vids:jointsmile::thumbsup:

Just use the search at the top, type in topping and you will get many examples. Also, type in fim, as this method will give you more tops then just topping your plant. Just from my experience:D

Thank you! I probably should've looked at the FAQs before posting. ;)
