It will be fine, just keep your plant healthy and it will grow, when you top a plant you stunt it's grow upwards and it grows more bushy, it will have a ton of undergrowth then it will grow upwards again.

it looks like you removed the growth tips that should have shot up. Do you see any growth tips on the node under that cut? Not sure if new ones grow but 7 days and it's doing little more than healing

Hey Chuckie86. Looks like you accidentally cut the two little growth shoots when you topped the plant, so no you won't get any useful growth from that area. If I were you, I would leave it as is for about a week, then cut back the main stem to just above the next node. That would be just above the two grow shoots shown in your picture. Also, it looks like you topped those other two growth shoots in the picture pretty close as well. You can always wait a few days before topping so the little growth shoots are more developed and you have more room to work with. After all, taking advantage of those little growth tips is the main purpose of topping. But like others said, don't stress out. Your plant's gonna be fine. Just curious, why all the topping?

Good luck Chuck...:peace:
