Should a plant with very small internodal distance get topped or is LST + scrog probably enough to open her up?

Lst and defoliation or scrog are the Gold standard. Less stress and same results in less time.

LST Defo = This?
It's my first time doing LST and defoliation. And even after many years growing outdoors and reading so much, still would like to hear second opinions to make sure I'm doing it 'right'. She's fed right after training and defoliation to help recover. Opinions? Thanks

What should I do with my plants that have grown thicc to receive more light? - First Grow
My plants (1 auto, 1 photo) have grown a lot and are now pretty thicc. Should I remove some leaves to allow more light directly on the new growths from the nodes? More agressive LST? Leave them alone? They have grown in a weird pattern because of my LST attempts (see pic).

LST timing
I just topped my plant today, repotted and fertilized. How do I know when Itโs time to start LST? Obviously I wanna give her like 5 days to recover and get used to her new pot, but I really want to maximize this yield. Thanks!!โ
