Never grown clones, but couldn’t pass on an opportunity to get Chem 91, Chem D, and Sour Diesel - or at least that’s what they claimed. Kinda excited, kinda in over my head. Any special tips welcome.
First question, I’ve never topped a plant, but the two in the back are growing straight up. Would you top now, or a wait for a few more nodes? I’m thinking wait. I’m thinking about topping because the plants look skinny that I’m afraid they’re going to topple over. Plus, I’d like to take cuts and try to flower them because I know I’m going to make mistakes.
Second questions, does Chem D just need extra love or more of a hands off approach? It looks the least happy to me. It’s the very variegated one (shorty in orange and in front).

Low stress training can help produce more tops for you with some patience. They are already rooted I’m assuming. Unsure of how long they been in those pots, but you should get them into bigger pots. Permitting you have the space to play.

They’ve been in the pots for almost a week. They came rooted and I’ll take your advice to transplant them to bigger pots this weekend or next. I’d been wanting to keep them in a smaller pot to reduce over watering.

when a plant is grown from seed, for the first few weeks of its life it grows very symetrically.
Topping usually takes place early, to break the plants apical dominance and force more side branching.
After the seed-grown plant reaches sexual maturity, it stops growing symetrically and starts staggering/alternating its growth pattern.
A clone is usually already sexually mature, and growing in staggered pattern.
I never find it necessary to top a clone. Just start bending and training it into shape for maximum number of nodes/colas.

Some exceptional cuts if they are true. Fingers crossed 
and hoping for the best for you my friend!
