the idea behind topping a plant is to encourage nodes to grow out, where you chop the main stem at the top you will get 2 nodes (1 on each side, so yea, topping your plant will increase its density, not its height! however when you do top, don't take it into flowering for at least 2 weeks

No, it won't grow up thats the idea of topping, to keep it growing out, not up! so top it if you want a fat plant, which you do. you want to top it where you already see two nodes appearing, that way you will know that you have growth there already! Hope that helps
