I know they are still pretty small but I feel that I waited too long to FIM on my other grow, can I FIM now or maybe next week?

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

How is the girl looking? Am I being impatient? ( newbie over here ) Day 17... At this stage more stretch was expected as well as a more vigorous grow. ( light is higher than the recommended hight ) Watering 1L every week or so. She hasn't shown any sign of stress.

Has anyone used the Phlizon COB LED 3000W (629W) ? the company states to keep LED lights on at 30-40 inch. and only to use COBS in heavy veg/flowering when the plant is strong. does it make sense to use both COBs and LEDs for full cycle? and at what hang height

I have been aggressively LST training throughout VEG and have done it twice since triggering flowering 7 days ago. SCROG. My question is how long into flowering do you typically continue to LST train before just allowing everything to just shoot up. Up to date Recent pics above.
