I'm on my first go round, and I started with an old grow book, almost as old as I am. It says you should 'top' your plants from the middle stalk to cause your plant to be more bushy. Is it true? Or did I cause damage. These pics are only of the ones I topped. The book says ones the growth from where you topped has 4 'brachings' of leaves, you should do the same to that 'sprout'. This website says if you top your plant, your cutting off the most potent part of the plant. Well, if you cause your plant to have 2 tops instead of one, isn't that better? The nutrients have to go somewhere. What do you think?
I topped all but one of my plants before I found this site, and I left the last one alone just because I want to see the difference. I actually like the effect it has had. It's keeping them short, and I seem to have a lot of even growth.
Thanks.
