When do you do it? How much do you take off? Is it a good idea to take off enough for a clone? And what about yeild?
do it between 4th and 5th node if possible, just cut off the little leaf bud right at the top, the only way you could 'clone' a topped head would be if you use tissue culture, which is a pretty advanced way of rooting small cutting, from what i can gather.. yeild it can affect, but if you give it enough time to grow back enough you should be fine...

just my two cents...
Abattoir Dream Reviewed by Abattoir Dream on . Topped, Please clarify for a newbie I think I get the basic concept. You take off the top of the main stalk and usually two grow in it's place. But tell me more about it. When do you do it? How much do you take off? Is it a good idea to take off enough for a clone? And what about yeild? I've read that when multiple branchs bloom it doesn't mean you get more bud you just get 2 buds half the size. I'm also wondering if the secondary branches that are coming out will form little buds alongside the big one(making one big fat bud), or Rating: 5
