Topping Banana Kush Auto ILGM

[runxtc]

I wanted to ask the group about training. I topped this girl, Lollipopped a budding site at the base of the plant, and snipped the 2 lowest branches. I am asking about snipping the crowns on the next branch at the bottom and leaving leaves. Is this something to do to correctly focus energy to the upper bud sites? I am deciding whether to lower the top colas down to the next branch level via LST or just let them grow from here? This topping is a first for me. She just turned 5 weeks. I tipped her late as I waited for female pre-buds to show.

I would minimize defoliation here out

I am new to this, mostly looking here for advice but also just trying stuff. I just finished an LSD grow where I cut the bottom two node branches at 6 weeks and got a massive main cola. Pics are up here. I will be adding a side light in a few days that may alleviate the need. Not sure but will discover soon. Thanks for the comment.

Put a tie right below the 2 tops and bend her all the way over being careful not to snap her

New Tent, more light, more room. Merry Christmas to all.

How big is that bag? And she's 5 weeks? Pretty sad branching and internodes. That sprout in the back right looks pretty weak too is that from ILGM as well? I haven't grown anything from them but based on your pics I'd probably avoid their genetics.

Front 2 girls are 33 days old. In a 1 gallon bag. Pretty good spacing and probably gonna do me well. Been topped and defoliated extensively. Genetics are key.

Ilgm has great autos here's my WW auto from them today on day 19 topped this morning and it hasn't skipped a beat from it. You definitely owe them a try

She is definitely pretty. Topped her to early IMO.

Grew her 4 times already. I found the best time to top her is between days 19-24 depending on vigor
