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.

Bigger leaves shading lower branches??
As you can see in my last photos (DAY 28) plants are developing lower side branches. Should I get rid off the larger leaves which shade the lower branches? I already tried to bend down the larger leaves to make room for the lower branches. What do you suggest? Veg for 15 more day

How to top to make more colas (mainline)
I was curious if anyone could help me understand how they train their plant to separate into like 7 or 8 different branches right down at the bottom of the stem. Almost looks like multiple topping on top of each. Any advice? Added a photo for more clarity.

FIMing feedback & Q: recovery week Nitrogen dose?
Any feedback and / or suggestions on improving my FIMing technique 🎋 are welcome! Beginning of week 3. For the next week (FIM recovery) should I keep adding Micro (2-0-0)? I’ve seen suggestions to ease off on Nitrogen for a week, but the bottles say always use all three parts

FIM went wrong, what to do?
I tried FIM training week ago. Something went wrong :/ Maybe I cut too little? What is the best I can do now? Try again or leave it to grow? First image is taken after FIM, second one week after.

To LST or not to LST?
I have 2 healthy Automaria II, paradise seeds, 3 weeks after germination and 16 cm tall, on the balcony and I am tempted to bend one of them and practice some LST of FIMming to see the difference. I don’t know.. I don’t want to risk the final harvest quantity.. Any advise?
