Also it's currently in a 5ltr pot (flowering in 11ltr) & I can see the roots through the bottom a bit. I have few weeks left of veg. Do I transplant now or is it best to wait till just before flower? Don't want it to get root bound and I'm still a noob. Only done autos so new to transplanting. Thanks for any help!

Shud I transplant into final 11ltr pot now (still few weeks veg left) or wait till just before veg? I don't want to get root bound & with only doing autos before I'm new to transplanting. Just don't want to stress her too much, I know how woman can be! Lol. Thanks guys!!

My first attempt at topping but seems to have gone well I think?Anyone else got any opinions on it?
Kinda looks like the side branches hav caught up with the 2 new tops & might be a few colas? I'm not sure how it will turn out but it's exciting seeing the changes & experimenting a bit. Just started growing and I feel addicted already!
Looks good

So it's been 2 weeks since I topped the La Cheese & in thinking of topping those 2 tops again. Can anyone advise if this is a good idea or not?
 
mine did the same thing after topping - it just goes crazy (which is pretty cool) I topped at the 3rd node after it had 4-5 total.
Once I topped it - i was able to top both of those in 1 week as they grew 5 nodes that quick.
There's nothing like not looking in the tent for a day or 2 and opening it up and seeing that much growth...its freaking awesome.
