Branch/leaf trimming.
When and should I be trimming branched and leaves? I'm on the 3rd week of veg and I have been using the LST method. Is it too early to be cutting leaves, branches?

Topping now or another few days ?
Should I start topping now ? seems that GCP and Critical (and even the Random has , just looks thinner) has 3+ nodes , I guess on the Purple Queen has to grow a bit more , for pictures check latest ones from my diary. and after the topping to tie them down ?

11-15 cm, too small for fimming ?
So I overfed them last week and now they are quite small (chlorosis). Most of them have 4 to 5 nodes. Should I wait for them to be taller (25-30cm ?) and greener for fimming ? I'm aiming to lollypop them later, I don't have much width. Thx !

Defoliating autoflower
What are your thoughts on defoliating autoflowers? Some of the larger fan leaves are shading the lower flowers and I’m wondering whether to could get rid of them. I’ve read conflicting information on this topic.

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?

FIM'd autoflower - recovering ok or should I top it fully?
Never topped or FIMd before. I topped this Jon Snow Autoflower by Cali Weed about 4 days ago. I was a bit too early to top and actually FIM'd it by mistake - is this growing back ok or should I complete the topping? It's growing weird, but I guess that's the point.

How does one LST a FIMed plant? Where to start specifically?
What LST method should I use with my FIMed Strawberry Gorilla Auto? Should I try to Tie Down? Do I wait for the top shoots to start showing? Tie just the side branches down? Bend the whole plant? Wait and do nothing? Please, all opinions matter. Thanks!

I topped this ILGM skunk auto on Day 12 and she’s tolerated it well. Today is Day 14. I want to go all-in and now Fim the new growth. risky, but I’m going for it. I’d love to hear from anyone who has tried this. Should I fim new growth on both sides vs just one? Thx!
