if youve already got more than one top i suppose so:D
see uncle bens topping technique in the advanced section.
take the time to read some of it and it pretty much will answer any question you have about topping

You can but remember, a plant is only going to produce so much bud due mostly to its genetics so the amount of bud will just be spread amongst the colas. I only really ever top once, once you look into supercropping there's not much need to fim and top all the time.

well i wouldnt say that totally cause it depends on how long you veg for. the amount of bud on a cola would depend on the percentage of light its getting and the thickness of the stem. if you top more than once youll get thinner stems.
topping more than once isnt as good as it sounds.

but if you top for four tops, your only doing it once, the stems end up just as thick as normal, it allows light to get into the canopy, and you dont risk breaking your plant like with supercropping

not saying supercropping is a bad method, its all preference, but uncle ben's method for topping is my preference :D
