Topping and sexing

[BassheadGrowsWeed]

I’m hunting through some m/f packs right now and my plan is to top after the 4th node and use the EZ cloner in the flower room to determine sex (place the top you cut into the cloner and allow it to develop as a clone). How long would you recommend that I let the plant grow above the 4th node before I cut to put into the cloner?

I'd just grow it until there's a decent enough top to turn into a clone.

What would you call a decent enough clone in this situation? Usually I clone before flip so I’ve got the pick of anything I want that I’m cutting off anyways. 3”?

48 every 8 weeks for 5+ yrs. Who knows how many before and after. Practice.

Considering it’s coming off a top which has matching nodes still, would you say let it hit 3 nodes above (7 total) in order to assure it’s enough to sex?

sounds like a good enough plan. I try to take clones that are at least 3-4" tall and have a couple nodes.
