Hi friend, You can top or fim when they have 4 or 5 nodes.It’s still alittle bit early to do that.But I recommend to do LST rather than topping or fimming.For an auto flower,you shouldn’t top or fim more than one time.They have short life cycle and don’t have so much time to recover.You can get the same result or may be better one by doing LST.So I encourage you to do only LST rather than top or fim.Happy growing... ✌️

I would wait a week or two. Ive done side by sides with autos doing no top, top, and fim. Topping is by far the best in my experience but I would only top it once and when its more robust.

They look a bit small to me to be fiming them yet. Your bigger plant, #1 I think is close, I would wait a few more days till they have at least 4 nodes and are a bit beefier. Cheers!💨

Those look from seed Nd if there autos dont top just lst. Otherwise best to wait between 3 nodes to 5 atleast before you start topping

Topping an auto flowerI want to top the big wedding cake but I'm worried I waited too late and at the rate she is growing I think she is an auto (wasnt supposed to be). Should I go ahead and top her or just let her go? I have read lots of mixed reviews about topping autos.

First time FIM, does it look normal a few days later?Hi Growmies,
Just wondering if this FIM attempt is looking any good a few days on? It's just that I am struggling to visualise how it will end up? To me, she looks like she is carrying on growing in the "Christmas tree" format. Did I miss a FIM lmao? Is that possible? lol.. TY

should I top some more?I topped once.. from one main high cola I got 4 per plant.. on one plant after LST it seems next small ones are appearing.
Should I top again to get more colas? My original plan was to go with SCRoG and I still haven't decided if I'll do it (I think there's still time)Techniques. Topping

Transplant Before or After Training?Just starting third week of veg and all plants have 3 or 4 nodes. I'm planning on topping and manifolding them. When should I move from 1L to 7L (final home)? Before or after I start training? I want to minimize any shock/recovery to the plant

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.Week 3

3 weeks in. Fan leaves the size of my hand. Topped today. How long until 2nd topping?Directly planted seeds in organic living soil. These plants are vigorously growing, topped today. By the way things are going I believe that the recovery time will be very short.
All organic ingredients. De chlorinated water with vitamin c.
Fan leaves are larger then my hand

When do you start topping? Photoperiods need to LST? Can ya'll just go look at my diary and tell me if my ladies look like they should LOL.When to top or LST? Do these look stunted? I'm super curious about methods for best yield. I'm already worried my girls are leggy (but I've gotten some great advise already to let them rest but also give them bigger pots soon). Planted March 20th. Pictures from today.
