  2. INTRODUCTION Topping is a horticulture technique in which the top part of a plant is cut to stop its upward growth and promote lateral growth in the lower branches. You may find it awkward to cut off and throw away part of your cannabis plant. Topping is an essential step to keep your plants healthy and getting quality leads. You should use this for Cannabis Production.

  3. Why Is Cannabis Topping Important? Topping is very important during the vegetative cycle as it helps to redistribute the growth hormones. Topping and fimming will develop an even canopy as the hormones which are responsible for the growth are distributed to all developing colas and stalks.

  4. CONTINUED... If the cannabis plant is left to grow on its own, then it will grow vertically and will focus its energy on one main stalk. You will get one long-dominant cola which will have smaller stalks surrounding it. Further, these smaller stalks will produce small, and larfy buds that will not be as great and the overall quantity and yield of the plant will also be small. Through topping, the cannabis plant will get bushier as cutting off the main stalk will redirect the plant energies to smaller side branches which will grow out.

  5. CONTINUED... After some time, these side branches will also get topped that will create more side branches. This will make the plant bush out even more. Doing this will also create several bud sites on branches and increase your yields. On topping the plant several times, you will observe that it will create more branches and make the shape of the plant bushier.

  6. Topping vs. Fimming: Topping is a tried and true method which is preferred by outdoor and large commercial farmers for Marijuana Production. Many growers often top a plant several times to get a large bushy structure. These topped plants are known to be more stable and also have a stronger branch structure. Due to this, it requires less support than plants trained with fimming. On the other hand, fimming works best for people who have small spaces and those who want to maximize their yields. The plants which are fimmed will need structural support, so you need to take extra care in trellising the garden.

  7. CONTINUED... By using the above techniques, you will notice a substantial increase in the yield. If you are not sure about the methods, you can try both of these and see what works best for you. Growing is a continuous learning experiment and cannabis plants are known to be resilient. This makes things important for you to try different methods and techniques and learn from mistakes.
