Regeneration

having trouble when trimming plants, i see that when topped the cuts will not regenerate anymore. they just turn brown and stay a stump with no new growth. Any reason on why this happens??

if u top above nodes that r already growing,they will not sprout new growth from said node
only more growth on those growing tips

If you want to lst go ahead, knock yourself out.lol. I usually do. As you approach/begin flowering high stress training methods should not be used anymore however.

ok so was that a shitty thing to do have i ruined the growth???
no, alot of peole top and train their plants to increase yield.....only its usually done earlier in the grow
u may have taken a lil bit off ur yield(depending on how much u cut off) but nothing to be worried about
it should recover nicely
goodluck

alright i wasnt sure if that was too much stress and i hd stunted her but good to know nothing major. i only clipped 2 new sets of leaves 80% of they way down hoping the 20% would allow multiple growths but i was wrong. guess ill have to stay with the lst'ing

im confused
is there 80% of the plant standing?
or 20%?

Look up topping a plant - you are doing it wrong.

The idea is to cut the stem just above a node allowing the growth from the node to be your new tops.
