2. When do I cut the heart out?

It depends on what you're trying to accomplish but it's definitely done during the veg cycle.
 
So it doesn't send that energy back down the plant to the side laterals it just stops new growth from that tip and starts a new and last set of laterals on that branch?

Best used in the early stages of fluxing?

So in my case it would be better to top that branch instead of taking the heart?

Perfect set of pictures for the example by the way....

I'm trying to slow down the growth on those tips so that the side shoots have time to catch up and clear the net...

Yes, agreed. Topping would be better for height restriction.

Those were questionS!
Reason for the above questions are....My original laterals are coming thru the trellis. They are at least 2 and 3 short nodes above the net. I haven't flipped my lights yet (only in week 8 but plan on flipping them week 9). The rest of the side shoots are coming thru now. I would like to stop or slow the growth of the original tips to give the rest time to clear the net before flipping. Updated pics on my journal.

Also....I won't defol her again till I flip the lights...next week.

Input....

Yo BAR Happy Shatterday :thumb:
 
Happy Shatterday Cronic
 
Morning
 
Yes it is jaga
 
An alternative and better option to topping would be to super crop. basically allow ur plant to grow then bend from couple nodes up. that will encourage more branching and not stress the plant. topping will def slow growth but it depends on why ud want to slow growth? i cant think of anyreason id want to slow the growth down?
 
for some reason it wont let me post any pics so i can demonstrate what i mean.

Here's an old pic of some super-cropping I did. I'll give you the honor of explaining it Cult.

I want slow growth because I'm growing outside in the suburbs on a fourth acre with neighbors. If I keep the plants low and tight, they won't notice them mixed in with other perennials the same height or higher.
