      I never share babies, but I am on the side that this is the most important time to nail it. A slow start can ruin a run, get them roots rocking and ready to pump them buds later in life. How early do you start training and how?

      • Nice! When mine are about 8″ tall and still in the solo cup I usually top them to start bushing them out a bit.

        • I let mine grow out six nodes, then chop them at the third node. This way, I’ll have a head start on the root ball. I grow roots, not vegetation. Get those roots right and the plant grows itself

          • …but I’ve also just started training immediately. It depends on the strain.

            • Depending on variety I usually top sativa leaning on 4th mode and wait until 6-8 nodes on compact varieties.

              Then you have to think about the space your filling, it’s going to determine you how many toppings and bending which can start as early as 6-8” tall in my opinion
