I wouldn't bother topping such a small, weak, un-sexed plant (no offense). That plant looks like it's been using all its energy just to stay alive; there arent any new nodes started. I would just go ahead and let it grow how it is, but inside next to a window or under a light with a fan to help it get stronger.

dont do it anytime soon. grow it under sufficient lighting (flourescent or HID) on a CONSISTENT time cycle. then slowly take it outside to get it adjusted. just curious, whats the rush to top? you know it slows growing for a few days right? theres also bending, if your trying to keep a low pro. magash you cheated! those are clones : )

No, the only way your gonna get faster growth is by adding light.

Nah, look close, the branches are still side by side and not alternating yet. Those in the pic aren't even sexed yet. (presently working on that)

Sometimes it is but with some strains it isn't. In those cases you take a cutting and force it to flower giving you the sex of the parent plant.
