Can't really tell what node you topped your plant on, but a good general rule of topping is that once secondary nodes start shooting up, you can top it.

I topped mine at the third node only because my first node was burned real bad) and the 4 secondary nodes from the top 2 sets shot right up and are going to be massive colas now.

Did you chop at the second node?
