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?

Did I FIM and train correctly enough?
hoping my plant looks like she's supposed to. She is an autoflower, and I did a lot of stressful training. FIM, LST, and defoliation. I wont be training her from here on, I don't want to add more stress. last grow with same seed started showing bananas 2 weeks before harvest.

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.

Topping
Hi guys. Do my plants need topping if I have little space (60x40x120cm) and I am planning a scrog? Are the plants ready for topping? After topping, I plan to use only lst + scrog, no mainlines/manifolds. I also plan to turn on the lights 12/12 in a week or two. Thanks!

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?

End of leaves turning yellow after fimming (not so bad)
Hello guys, see the last picture, after my fimming, do you know if it's normal if the end of the leaves are turning yellow ? Or it is some stress ? (It's an auto) Thanks in advance ! π

Did I FIM correctly?
Tried to FIM 2 days ago and now I'm wanting to know if it looks like I did it correctly. Couldn't get my camera to focus after many attempts, so the quality of the photo is bad.

FIMIN During Flower?
Hey guys. I'm wk 3 in flower and I was just wondering how far into this stage yall will continue to FIM for tops? I have held off for the logic that they need energy for bud form but how far have yall pushed them? Do you have a specific time that you just refuse to touch the girl

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.
