Do you think these guys are ready, #1 we want to top and #2 we want to FIM? What do you think should we wait?

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!💨 #trusttheplant

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

To top or not to top (Again...would be 2nd time).Should I top 1 more time? I have (Example pic) 4 good nodes at the end of the 2 main branches. Should I top these to allow the ones mid branch to pick up and boost or should I leave them now and just flip in a week or 2? Think they're near end of veg as not putting on any height!

Are the girls ready for flower??Hi all! I’m wondering when will be good to switch to flower? I’m at start of week 5 & I topped them 1 week ago. Did a small amount of defoliation today to get rid of some yellow leaves that were laying on the soil. Do they look almost ready? Or wait due to topping & defoliation?

Praying leaves The leaves are stretching up (praying leaves as I understand). It's just 1 day after topping and I would expect some stress, is this a good or bad sign? I fear I might have topped them a bit too early.
