A node is basically just a set of leaves. Count each set of leaves from top to bottom on stalk including any set that may have died off. That’s how many nodes you are at. Ignore the shoots and leaves on them. Just count the leaf sets coming off you’re main stalk right now. I don’t count very newest sets that haven’t fully emerged yet. I top at 7-9 nodes
I'm counting 5 with a 6th just beginning at the top but its hard to see the bottom of the plant. I generally wait for 6 and if im going to top I do it then.
