Means you didn't fim far enough down and just took a chunk out of the leaves on the node you attempted to fim, it seems. I'd personally just top it. Easier that way.

I would just cut it back a little further at the stem and just top it.

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.

To LST or not to LST?
I have 2 healthy Automaria II, paradise seeds, 3 weeks after germination and 16 cm tall, on the balcony and I am tempted to bend one of them and practice some LST of FIMming to see the difference. I don’t know.. I don’t want to risk the final harvest quantity.. Any advise?

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?

Any thoughts on how to get FIMing right and how this one turned out?
Any thoughts on how this FIM is turning out? I've been trying to learn how to properly FIM a plant and I've tried a couple of times. Here's my latest attempt but I don't think I'm gonna get the results I I'm looking for. Any thoughts/advice about how to do this better?

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? Did FIM benefit here at all vs Topping?

Suitable growing techniques
What would you recommend: low stress training (such as bending, ScrOG) or high stress training (such as topping, fimming) for my strain? I read different things about it.

Topping and LST autoflower
I have a 2.5 week old seedling that is only ~3 inches tall, but I just topped/fimmed the 5th node. I plan on starting LST, how long should I wait before tying them down? She is currently in a 3 gallon.

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.

How does one LST a FIMed plant? Where to start specifically?
What LST method should I use with my FIMed Strawberry Gorilla Auto? Should I try to Tie Down? Do I wait for the top shoots to start showing? Tie just the side branches down? Bend the whole plant? Wait and do nothing? Please, all opinions matter. Thanks!
