thank you for the reply and advice emmie, was ideal that naggin feeling has gone! i have taking into the account that if it survives and with the the top being so low i could potentially 'lst' and really maximize light to plant exposure, thus hopefully increasing yield. iv already transfered her to a bigger pot than i had origanly planned and will veg for 6 weeks, as oppose to my 4 to allow for this period of stumped growth now.

as for the pooch i should have learned when he ate my greenhouse seeds super lemon haze seedling n the other dinefem blue widow 2 days prior to this! pooch is now banned from the grow area, as there isnt much info on a topped plant so low i might put up a few pics of how it progresses, provided it even makes it that is!
