All the power to you brother! Never Give up!
You have a great community behind you supporting you!

… and I am full of inspirational “one liners” if you ever need a boost… for example…
“Always keep your head up”,
“As we Live, we Learn”,
“Each one, Teach one”,
“There is No Try, Only Do”
“You can never Fail, Unless you Fail to Learn”,
"When People and/or things enter your life, it is for one of, a combination, or all 3 of the following:

  1. A reason
  2. A Season
  3. A Lifetime"

“Lefty Loosy, Righty Tighty”,
“Keep on truckin’”,

and last, but not least…
“If Duct Tape didn’t fix it, You Din’t Use Enough Duct Tape!” :rofl:

What exactly is topping and What would be the best approach to topping

It refers to apical pruning, also known as top pruning. It is a technique where the main stem, is selectively pruned. This practice aims to encourage lateral growth and branching in order to achieve a more compact and balanced growth habit. By removing the terminal bud or apical shoot, apical pruning redirects the plant’s energy towards lower branches, promoting fuller foliage and potentially enhancing flower production.
Because of that, the technique is applied in the vegging stage.

There are a lot of youtube videos that explain different techniques, like simply bend and pinch off the new top that is growing. Some people use scissors to cut in between 2 nodes. They are both okay in my opinion.

This video is a good visual explanation of techniques: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Mh8qJvC5H70
