Fimming, done right?
martiniiistarted grow question 4 years ago
Hello guys, I just want to ask If I had done fimming of my plant right? She looks like she is growing normally(chrismas tree shape), I don´t think she is going to split the top into two more colas. Dont know if I have to try one more time, or to top her. Thanks

Looks like you may have cut the two side shoots a bit and didnt fully top her leaving a small amount of leaf to continue to grow on the top and the 2 sides.
Also I'm noticing some leaf curl. The way its curling suggests some light issue. I back the lights off a little.

Like seriously, I once "fimmed" a plant, and some guy was like "Perfect fim"...
And I was like "Wtf you talking about? You see this other plant, it made 4 new tops"

Dunno if you picked low enough. Doesn't look like it.
Btw, if you fim in the "good" way, you can get more than two colas.
A fim that ends up only making two colas is what I consider a failed fim (as it's simply topping).

The curl is more heat than light btw. Watch your temps. Inspire me is right about the fim. You want to halve the middle top bit.

Ok, I will dim the light a bit, I know it´s too close to the plant for a LED. I am probably going to top her to correct my bad FIMming. thanks

Benefits of FIMing vs Topping? Specific example.First grow. Looking at FIM results I'm super confused!
It looks like if I had waited for the next segment to emerge and topped it (pics), I would get the same 4 branches (potential colas) AND 4 fan leaves which I have lost now due to FIM?

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 partsWeek 3
