When to 12/12?
Floristasstarted grow question 5y ago
Hello, I fimmed the main cola of my plants a week ago. They got bushier during the week. I am thinking to top their every branch and switch lights to 12/12 schedule is this a good idea and how long should i wait after topping to go to 12/12?

Hey buddy ;-) after topping you should wait at least 1-2 weeks for the plant to recover from the stress 🙏🏻👌👍🌱

hey there, good idea, only thing i would suggest is wait until the plant recovers before you flip to 12/12 ... you really want the plant to be 100% going into the flower period. Hope this helps ! 🚀

Defoliate?Will I defoliate the 1st node site as shown in the picture below, when I top her? There doesn't seem to be much growth there the last week and I'm worried that there is wasted nutrients going to this site? 🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔

Benefits of FIMing vs Topping? Specific example.First grow. Looking at FIM results I'm super confused!
It looks like if I had waited for the next segment to emerge and topped it (pics), I would get the same 4 branches (potential colas) AND 4 fan leaves which I have lost now due to FIM?
Did FIM benefit here at all vs Topping?

Any thoughts on how to get FIMing right and how this one turned out?Any thoughts on how this FIM is turning out? I've been trying to learn how to properly FIM a plant and I've tried a couple of times. Here's my latest attempt but I don't think I'm gonna get the results I I'm looking for. Any thoughts/advice about how to do this better?

First time FIM, does it look normal a few days later?Hi Growmies,
Just wondering if this FIM attempt is looking any good a few days on? It's just that I am struggling to visualise how it will end up? To me, she looks like she is carrying on growing in the "Christmas tree" format. Did I miss a FIM lmao? Is that possible? lol.. TY
