How and where do i top for a second third etc time on a plant and how old can i start doing it ? thanks
 
Quite easy actually. If you start from seed you will have one main area of new gowth. When topping simply pinch (and by pinch I mean tear or rip) off the smallest bit of new growth. When topping a clone the nodes are alredy alternating, so most times it is possible to pinch multiple growth sites. Topping or pinching simply tells the plant to grow other areas than the site pruned.
 
Exactly correct. And as other lower branches grow up you can do the same thing to them. Alot of people like to tie braches to the side to allow more light to lower branches therefore creating a bush!
