First grow question - About that FIM!

started grow question 6y ago
This was my first FIM - Can someone please confirm if this is a proper clean cut. Did I remove excess or should I take out more? The two photos are 6 hours apart

Not the clearest pic but looks ok. You'll be able to see for sure in a couple of days. No need to lst until these fimmed tops have grown up. 🌱👍

Fimming, done right?
Hello guys, I just want to ask If I had done fimming of my plant right? She looks like she is growing normally(chrismas tree shape), I don´t think she is going to split the top into two more colas. Dont know if I have to try one more time, or to top her. Thanks

Fimming gone wrong?
Did my Fimming attempt go wrong? I fimmed my plant 5 days ago but for me it seems that it just grows normal, may i've cut too little? should i try again? or should i give it a few more days to finally see the results? Last pic is 5 days ago right after fimming.

Outdoor Auto Training
Any outdoor auto growers out there? What do you recommend for increasing yield? Topping? FIMing? Go au naturale/nothing? Still a couple of weeks before flowering stage.

How to top to make more colas (mainline)
I was curious if anyone could help me understand how they train their plant to separate into like 7 or 8 different branches right down at the bottom of the stem. Almost looks like multiple topping on top of each. Any advice? Added a photo for more clarity.

Topping o no hacer nada a esta fotodependiente
Estoy dudando si hacer Topping o no hacerle nada Tiene 24 días de vida. Empezó en maceta de 3 litros, y se ha pasado a maceta de 15 litros en el dia 22 Está en el sexto nudo de crecimiento ¿Le harías topping o fimming o dejarla crecer libremente? La veo tan sana y bonita...

I FIMed in week 3, and everything seemed to go swimmingly. I don't know that there was any real slowing of growth. I was worried I had taken too much off. Week 4 comes around, and there is top growth like nothing ever happened. Any ideas?

Does this look like a successful FIM?
Does this look like a successful FIM? I clipped it when it was pretty small and it's grown out over the past few days.

Hola amigos, quiero probar a hacer corte apical y una poda de bajos. La idea es hacer el corte apical 7 días antes de pasar a floración y la poda de bajos después de 3 días de haber pasado a floración. Es justo hacerlo así o debo usar otra táctica? Gracias anticipadamente.

Is FIMing done right?
2 days ago I tried to make FINing. I'm not sure, but I feel it looks made wrong. Should I wait, or try FIM it again?

Should I remove some of the dense foliage as I start LST, or wait? Other suggestions appreciated!
The Durban Poison and Jack 47 are very dense, with tight nodes. I’m beginning LST this week to get more light to more of the branches, but should I prune some of the excess foliage? If so, how do I decide what to remove? Thanks in advance for your help!
