Top and then FIM auto?
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!

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.

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.

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.

Outdoor Auto Training
Any outdoor auto growers out there? What do you recommend for increasing yield? Topping? FIMing? Go au naturale/nothing? Still a couple of weeks before flowering stage.

Too late to top these autos? I'm at the end of 3rd week.
Should I have topped this one a couple days ago? These girls have been very vigorous. The only thing that gave me pause was these miniscule white pistils right here. Can I snip em, you think? Or bad idea? And if yes, should I FIM instead?

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

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.
