Not the best idea I've heard. When you will fim the secondaries you will end up with too much lateral branches and you will have to practice LST and defoliation to not let that new branches and new leaves block the light. Keep it simply by doing one FIM and continue by bending the stems 😊

Pretty much what Athos said, is true what you can do though to increase the number of colas is a technique called fluxxing where you too then fim or top multiple times. Something else you can do is fim multiple times so you get several more colas . Up to you ! Hope this helps ! 🚀

No, the idea of TOPing (or FIMing) is to promote growth of the side shoots. When they reach the SCROG net you must interweave them to create an even canopy.

Leaves bloated, wavy and clawing.My Mimosa Cake is growing OK, about the same of the other 3 autos I'm growin.
Nonetheless her leaves are a bit bloated, wavy and clawing. I'm 100% it's not overwatering and I haven't feed her yet, and since she's on BIOBizz Light Mix I doubt it's nitrogen toxicity.
Any ideas?!TIA5y ago

Probleme bei meiner Gorilla Cookie Auto• The first plant is getting yellow tips on the new leaves, and unfortunately, I don't know what that means.
• Another problem with the first plant is that the older leaves are dark green at the tips and are drooping.
• The third problem is the width of the 1.

Could you look them over pleaseI am not asking because I need a pat on the back. Obviously I'm a first time grower. Would you please look over my girls and make sure I'm not missing anything. They look good to me but Im not veteran. You might notice something I dont.if they look ok then that's good to me.

So I noticed on day 6 she started to stretch, she was the leggiest out of all 4. I swapped out the cup as it had a surround on it for jug to improve light.
I think this has helped.
BUT her cotyledons are very dark green and curling down and under, and her top is smaller+darker??

Only a one leaf curls unexpectedlyYesterday, I moved the plants into the other tent and changed the lighting from 18/6 to 20/4 for more veggie growth. I also watered them a bit too much yesterday because I wanted to give them a good watering to avoid any dry spots. The only difference is a bit more water
