How many nodes are recommended before I start to FIM? And how often should I FIM?

Wait for a healthy plant. 6+ nodes is generally safe and tends to work better if the axillary growth is begun at least initially, as oppose to little immature nubs. The beginnings of leaves at those nodes will help greatly.

FIM is just like topping so I'd say soon as see the true leaves start. Not sure how often but topping it's every 3rd.

Suitable growing techniques
What would you recommend: low stress training (such as bending, ScrOG) or high stress training (such as topping, fimming) for my strain? I read different things about it.

To LST or not to LST?
I have 2 healthy Automaria II, paradise seeds, 3 weeks after germination and 16 cm tall, on the balcony and I am tempted to bend one of them and practice some LST of FIMming to see the difference. I don’t know.. I don’t want to risk the final harvest quantity.. Any advise?

FIMing feedback & Q: recovery week Nitrogen dose?
Any feedback and / or suggestions on improving my FIMing technique 🎋 are welcome! Beginning of week 3. For the next week (FIM recovery) should I keep adding Micro (2-0-0)? I’ve seen suggestions to ease off on Nitrogen for a week, but the bottles say always use all three parts
