Mine did that but it's a 12/12 from seed. I don't remember the timelines but it was something like almost 2 months and they were in full flower. 3 out of six started 3 seprate tops or branches of pure bud lol. Yums.
They were party cup grows. harvested about 5 to 9 grams a piece.

Yes and no? WTH VAGUE MUCH…
A marvelously succinct response, but not the one I hoped for. I like those knobby flowering mushroom fists, and I want more of them. Can't you just pinch a developing flower's tip to make it branch just like you do on a vegging plant? Come oonnnn!

I did a bud topping experiment similar to fiming in my Goin Loco grow (you can read about it there) what happened was 4 bud spots came out of the top of the (instead of one) I then did it to another to confirmA marvelously succinct response, but not the one I hoped for.

those buds did grow out rather then up and did get fatter but not as tall as the other un-topped buds so in the end was about equal (guessing) but they did get frostier and once harvested those 2 buds offered a better high
Thanks, I look forward to check out your Goin Loco. Wouldn't controlling bud height through topping be a useful trick for keeping all the buds on the same level, like in a scrog grow? I grow scrog and find that, even if all the flowers start at the same level, some grow much taller than others and the light has to be raised to accommodate the tallest, shortchanging the shortest. Be nice to keep them all around the samel evel.
