A high-stress training technique where the grower removes the top growth tip of the main stem or branches, causing the plant to redirect its energy into growing multiple new branches and flower sites rather than a single main cola. Topping encourages a bushier, more even canopy, leading to potentially higher yields and better light distribution across the plant.
