    Topping

    I just topped my plant (razor blade after sterilization in hydrogen peroxide) at about the 6-7th node. I left some stem remaining where I cut, and I didn't damage or touch anything aside from the stem. I've read that the growth will now shift to lateral and my question is, should I up my nutrient feeding? Will my existing nodes now flourish evenly?
    Ask questions, take notes, and check your pH regularly. 😌

      You can use kelp meal that will aid with cell division and help your plants branch out. Look at Aloe Vera as well.

        Yes they will grow up in twos and the energy from the plant is divided for a more bushy grow instead of a Christmas tree shape.
        it looks good the topping 👍🏻
        if the plant is happy you don’t need to feed more nutrients, keep it at the same. If you have good genetics - it will not even shock the plant - and will keep on growing as usual 😊.
        Just because people are over 50 doesn’t mean they know everything.
        You can teach a old dog new tricks - But it will still think the old ways are the “best” lol
