Hey Dude's, can someone answer this? 6 or 8 colas (nodes 5 thru 7 OR 8) does it matter?
Peace, PIF

There are real sharp Dude-etts on here too.....................
I'm no 'dude' either. I'm a geezer. I like multiple top plants, sometimes.
Matter for what?
& I'm a geezer-ett! LOL! Doesn't matter at all. Sometimes I top like hell, sometimes not at all. Depends on the space you have. Is the space more vertical or horizontal? That's my determining factor. :) ~~~ PEACE! ~~~

This is how you make the decision that best suits you. Its a personal preference thing. For my next grow, I'll be topping & placing a few flourscent fixtures on their backs to under light all those smaller branches & buds (tube type, not cfls). This works for me because I'm using a VERY small space, keeping plants short & compact, kinda SOG. What ever you decide, just keep an eye on where you light is hitting. Lower it, raise it, angle it..... whatever it takes to light the entire plant/plants. :)
