If it's an auto, you should fim above the 4th node, pinching the 5th. If it's not an auto, you can do it whenever you want

With your plant in its current condition, I would not FIM. You want it to be healthy before considering stressing the plant. A weak plant is prone to more diseases and problems.

I would say they are ready for their first fim. If they recover quickly enough you may even get to do it one more time before they start to flower

Defolation Question ???
Hallo nochmal, my Pflanze blüht endlich und ich habe schon ein paar Entfärbungen gemacht, aber die Blätter grow sehr schnell nach und ich habe das Gefühl, dass ich wieder entblähen muss? Soll ich schon mehr Blätter entfernen? Sieht die Pflanze gesund und gut aus? Was denkst du so

Trimming
Should I trim off the sun leaves since my plant is so frickin dense. I’m assuming that the light isn’t making its way down enough. I just don’t want to cut off something that could hurt my growth.

Defoliation before harvesting
Hello, I hope some more experience grower would be able to give me a good advice. I’m in week 9 and planning to harvest at the end of week 11. Do you think that defoliating my girls would be a good idea? Should I take all big fan leaves? 🤔

Pre-flower defoiliation
I flipped my lights to 12/12 about 4 days ago and I don't believe I done a well enough job on defoiliating. The plants are healthy but the canopy looks a little crowded. Can I defoiliate now or should I wait until the pre flower stretch is finish

Cut off leaves for better bud development?
I saw some diaries where plants have nearly no leaves and produce a nice amount of good looking buds. Is it recommended to cut of most of the leaves at the end of flowering, that the energie goes into bud development?
