this was there last topping usually Aug first is when the start the bloom faze .I like to give them at least 2 weeks to recover from the topping ,My girls are under the green house roof so they haven't been bothered by all the rain and they are still growing vigorously , I'm now working on spreading them out so more air flow/Sun can get in
what I have found with topping is that if the new growth nodes are between a 1/4 and 1/2 inch long it does not slow the plant down at all if you top a branch with less than a 1/4 inch it can set it back as much as 3 weeks .
Its rained everyday this month sun comes out for a few hours then it rains ,sun comes out it rains been a tiring circle lol, its supposed to rain all day today ,wifes gone to her sisters till Thursday so I guess its a house cleaning day , I'm going to smoke a big fatty Stativa crank the stereo ,put the birds in the bedroom (Hootie freaks out when you pick up a broom/vacuum) less stress on all if I just close her in the bed room
