Hrm, how many sets of leaves/branches did that plant in the above pic have when you topped it? I can't see past the pot. Looks kinda young. I wouldn't top a plant before it has five sets plus the shoot you cut off. Very young plants don't have a lot of leaves to absorb energy, nor a lot of reserves to draw on to heal from damage, so if you top a very young plant, you might stunt its growth for a while. That'd explain why it's not produced any new growth shoots yet. It'll recover probably, but yeah, it might take a while. Can't undo it in any case, so no choice but to be patient now. Heh.
jamstigator Reviewed by jamstigator on . To top with ScroG? Ok, I've done some lookin around but still can't make up my mind - was hoping the resident pros (Jamstigator comes to mind!) could give me a quick yay or nay. About to try the ScroG method, and am still unsure if I should do it in conjunction with some topping, or if I should do it au naturale. Whatcha think guys? Jams, was there any topping involved with those big ass stems you showed me before? ;) Rating: 5
