Hope the picture is okay. I haven't topped cannabis in almost a decade so I just want to be sure I didn't rush things before the stem had time to extend.
Is this a successful topping?

You'll know it's successful when the wound heals up and the side branches start to dominate.

Gotcha, I think it's a success then! The two branches have grown bigger and seems like there are budsites/branches growing next to the topped area, so we're gucci?

Yeah! I think the rule of thumb is after 2-3 days she should heal up. It definitely looks successful!Gotcha, I think it's a success then! The two branches have grown bigger and seems like there are budsites/branches growing next to the topped area, so we're gucci?

Now I'm starting to doubt if it was. It seems like the stem is still growing.
I guess I fucked it up?
Or did I fim it by accident?Attachments

No no it's a good thing! Just wasn't on purpose.
That's news to me. What am I supposed to do now then? To avoid that?

its a strange angle but as i see you topped all the leafs soo no chance for a fim.

Fuck. You never know what causes hermies these days. He got me.
So, I should top it again in the near future I guess? I'll give it a week to recover, I also just transplanted it and put it outdoors a few days ago.

a fim(fuck i missed) is basicly just cutting the top half way soo the sun(lamp) can reach the side branches.they grow in the meantime the top recovers and continues growing.
i would do it a few more times 4max

I prefer topping its not always even but tends to be a bit more so than fimming at least ime suppose it's just preference in the end they both do a similiar job

Your better leaving a bit longer so the plant can seal itself easier vs cut tight all the way down it takes longer to heal
