In general, how much does topping during veg reduce canopy height during flower?

If, for instance, we had two identical plants. Plant A grew to 3ft during flower. If Plant B was topped during veg, would it be 3" smaller than Plant A? Would it be the same height, just smaller colas? Inquiring minds wants to know. :-o

TIA!

roughly the same heightto reduce height, flower sooner or train downtopping is just that - the cut is made to produce another top(kola)training down creates MANY more kolas and reduces heighti train my plants down during veg and as i cut/train, i retain the better bits for cloningby the time i've finished there are literally ONLY Kolasi started out with hobbes' crop circle of bud theory, and accidentally found out(by confusing his instructions) that if you train down and around as the plant veges the new tops outgrow the old topi started sorta slowly angling the plant a few days at a time which cause the lower branches to reach upward hard but the top continues to grow as the lower branches reach about 6 inches or so above the bucket, i "top" themi don't EVER cut the actual topas you pull it downward, more of the lower branches reach upi keep topping them downretain the best cuttings for clonesflower when it's too confusing to stare atrealize the IGNORANT yields you can achieve in a 15"x15" space
