the NL99 in the photos was NOT topped ... it finished out at about 40" tall ... I topped her sisters, and they finished at 34", but Custom39's idea of the 30-degree angled-pots, out-yielded mine, by far ... Joey Weed's 'NL99' doesn't mind being topped, cut for clones, or much anything else you could do to her, if you were wondering ... she's indestructible, and easy to grow ... finishes in about 50-55 days, and has a VERY mild lemon-scent, too ... :thumbsup:
