To top or not to top?

I've got 3 girls that have been vegging a couple of weeks. I just transferred 2 of them yesterday into bigger pots. I've noticed growth since the transfer so I presume there wasn't much stress to the plants. Would I be doing myself a disservice by topping so soon after a transfer or will I be fine?

I topped them a couple of days ago. How soon can I go back to giving nutes?
Go ahead and use your nutes but I would go 1/4 strength then back up to half strength when you start to put the lights on 12/12 change the nutes to a flowering nute and use the nutes everyday at 1/4 strength or full strength every other day if you fertilize full strength the next time use water check your ph if need be I am lucky the water here out of the tap can sit out in a open jug and still be in the correct ph if you are hey go for it man but use normal whater every other watering time this is only how Ive had luck to each their own huh

Well get her inside 1st of all. Not to mention taking a plant outside is a good way of bringing in unwanted bugs to your indoor grow.

Post some pics. I think it will help me/people help you.

Topped last week and everything was going so smoothly until I discovered nut sacks on the best growing plant this morning :-( sad day in the grow room

Noooooooooooooo. This just happened to me with a fem'd seed.

Not to derail the thread, but how often does that happen?

A male?

50% for reg seeds
0-20%+ for fem seeds depending on how good your environment is and how good the genetics are.

You can technically increase your chances of getting a female from regular seeds to well above 50% with an optimal environment.

Small for 4 weeks and where are the fan leaves ? top and defoliate ?

If you have a male save some pollen, free seeds are the best.
