No I let it dry too long and it didn’t cure properly. As for topping it went as it should I could have let it grow bigger before top.
Are you able to use your grow tent for drying? I set up a tent just for drying my current plants and have it at 21c, 60 RH at present. Works great and allows you to dry over a week to 10 days.

I have the light at it’s highest I can probably raise it another couple inches if I use some zip ties and hang it from the supports of the tent.

Also what are the cons of having close node spacing. It’s a 1000w Mars hydro in a 2x2x4 tent, I know the light is probably overkill but was given to me for free. I didn’t burn the buds on my first grow closest bud was about 3-4 inches from light
The cons of closer node spacing is a stiffer, stronger plant that can hold dense nuggs with minimal added support.

I will on this grow that’s y I’m growing only one plant last grow I had an auto and photo photo wasn’t done had to dry the auto in a closet. Photo was more my fault was middle of summer and was hardly home I left it too long. This time I have a portable ac to leave in the room will have a better time to control the temps

Seems like a good thing I think it’s ok my last grow look like this but when I switch it stretched a bit made it easier to support

It is a good thing...I just worded it that way since you asked what the cons were haha...just don't let it stretch too much. Too much internodal stretching results in weaker branches and stems. Weaker branches and stems may need support as flowering progresses...unsupported branches in this state can break.

Looks like very early stages of nute burn. Plain ph'd water next time and/or you could also increase your light intensity since plants use more nutrients as they are exposed to more light. Just easing back slightly on the nutes though is probably the easiest.

I’m doing an organic grow I haven’t used any nutes. Started with organic soil and 4-4-4 Gaia Green additives also used less then required amount to try avoid nute burn. I will continue to use plain water.
