thanks, i think ill top them all for sure now..im pretty sure i have the retarded leaves and no more colas than i had before…plenty of time to make changes, I'm just not trying to kill them..this is my first grow! loving coloradolike @Commander Strax said; I too have fim'd and top'd and I prefer topping much more. I have had times where it didn't really do anything to fim. It just grew normally with retarded leaves. With topping I know ill get two tops ~everytime.
