You're in good shape Frank. Those new little shoots you see will become main trunks for you.

looks a little soggy, but she has good color.

Here's two other plants i have that I topped, but they're having different reactions. The first picture is one plant i've had problems with after topping, and i'm not sure whats happening with the plant in the second&third picture. The plant in the first picture had some leaves almost look burnt and come off, but the new growths looks pretty healthy I think.

look good to me, ive had some that looked a bit goofy at 1st also, but the girls are very tough and usually grow out of it and do fine. like bub^ said looks a bit soggy but ur near transplanting
 
The plants are 24 days old. And thanks critical, I honestly can't see where to cut enough just to reassure myself. One of the plants looks like it has 5 nodes growing now instead of the two the others are growing, if it's a lady i think i might have gotten a stroke of good luck!

They sure look nice :hump:, but I am just a newbie anyway. I am in 11 days and I will be topping probably next week...

in general a pot plant likes dry. overwatering is a problem we all need to pay attention to. I use sip pots so its a bit different
