first off let me thank MICKYJUICE for a really good thread.

That being said i think i am going to top only one of the two plants..

I'm topping the taller one.

I plan on topping it Sunday just to so it has more roots

I just decided this because

I want to see the difference of one topped scrog and one normal scrog.

BUT!!!! if ANYONE think i shouldnt do this and say i should top both or

leave them both alone. PLEEEEEASE tell me!!! THANKS!!!! Im still learning!

and PURPLECREAM i'll take as many pics and lots of updates!

the best way to find out for sure is to try it for yourself...
but yeah i would do the one on the right because the shorter one looks like its got its own thing goin on its already got a fork in it.
