right i just checkd out the uncle bens topping thread and think i know understand just wanted to make sure tho first it says The node where the cotyledons attach doesn't count.im guessing this is the first little set of round leaves so i then wanna go up 2 sets of leaves and snip above the second proper set
my confussiion is whether or not the first single ganja shape leaf and then above that its 3 little ganja shape leaves than 5 an so on do i count these ?
thanks again guys

""To get 4 main colas, let your seedling or cutting (clone) grow to about 5-6 nodes and pinch out (cut) the stem just above the 2nd true node. The node where the cotyledons attach doesn't count"" << Uncle Ben<<
When i topped mine i waited till it had 6 nodes inc the one with the cotyledons on, then i snipped after the 2nd set of true nodes, 3rd if u count the cotyledons, if my thinking is right, and someone corect me if im not wait untill u have 6 branches, then snip at the 3rd... thats what i did anyway and it seems to be doin ok.

**I also read that you can grow the top that u snipped, i didnt read this till after, so might aswell try it... just treat it like u would a cuttin**

i don't think you count them mate i didn't follow uncle bens way because i hadn't read it at the time when i done mine i simply cut the growth right at the top of the plant down to just above the set of leaves below and i got 4main tops on it but i had done a little bit of lst before it i just tied the top over for about a week or 10 days keep the height down and bush them out a bit more

For the last ten years of his life I always believed that my Grandad was suffering from Alzheimers.


It was only at the old fellas funeral that I realised I'd been visiting the wrong house.

A day vegin on the sofa with a few joints sounds lush mate and that sounds like a good experiment mate, one i wish i could join u in lol.

yeah just got the Vega for now £12 for 1ltr hope it sorts the Nitrogen deficiancy out, extra 2 weeks isnt so bad really n like u say more buds hopefully lol... will get my Flower nutes soon as i flip the switch, so extra 2 weeks veg means extra 2 week to sifen more money to purchase them lol
