It's fine, top the plant first and then bend her over for a nice even canopy, keep tying the tallest ones down

Are the gals safe to top or are they too stressed?I've heard that you shouldn't top your ladies while there are any deficiencies or issues as it can be extremely stressful. Considering the light spotting and slightly burnt tips, would you say these gals are fine to top or should I wait until everything is perfect and dialed in?

Early flower and plant too small?Multiple questions: Is this the first sign of flower on the picture of D21 from sprouting? Doesn't the plant look to small for it still? How do I promote new node growth? Is watering roughly about 1.5L per week too little for nutrient influx?

Lower leaves too pale or yellowing?I am noticing the lower leaves of my Royal Critical Automatic to be much more pale green than the top of the plant.
Is this a nutrient/light/watering/lst stress problem if at all?

What should I do with my plants that have grown thicc to receive more light? - First GrowMy plants (1 auto, 1 photo) have grown a lot and are now pretty thicc. Should I remove some leaves to allow more light directly on the new growths from the nodes? More agressive LST? Leave them alone? They have grown in a weird pattern because of my LST attempts (see pic).

Enough LST for an autoflower?I was wondering how much LST and how intense the LST on an auto should be? I heard you shouldn't stress autos too much, that's why I'm extra careful and wanted to ask. (And yes I know it's overwatered, I'm letting it dry out at the moment)

Topping/Cloning QuestionI am planning on topping at node 5 and using the clipping to plant in a rockwool pellet for cloning. Would I still need a rooting gel if the clipping is being placed directly in a rockwool pellet? Appreciate the read, happy growing and learning.Setup. Clones

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?

ScrOG tucking: expose lower smaller bud sites by tucking/compacting main cola branches?For a better yield, should I aggressively (but gently) bend main leading branches and tuck all shading fans to expose young 'undergrowth' branches (circled) and bud sites to light, or, inversely, untuck fans and straighten leading branches to give more light energy to them?
