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.

Topping
If I topped at the 5th node can I fim at the 6th or 7th node? Or should I stick with topping and not confuse the plant with different techniques?

Did I FIM correctly?
Tried to FIM 2 days ago and now I'm wanting to know if it looks like I did it correctly. Couldn't get my camera to focus after many attempts, so the quality of the photo is bad.

FIMIN During Flower?
Hey guys. I'm wk 3 in flower and I was just wondering how far into this stage yall will continue to FIM for tops? I have held off for the logic that they need energy for bud form but how far have yall pushed them? Do you have a specific time that you just refuse to touch the girl

I fimmed the side branch growth in the first photo on 2/4/21. Doesn't look like it worked. When i fimmed, the growth looked like the second photo. Did I FIM too soon? Does the growth in the third photo look good to FIM at the point where my thumb is? Am i not supposed to FIM this

Does this look like a successful FIM?
Does this look like a successful FIM? I clipped it when it was pretty small and it's grown out over the past few days.

I FIMed in week 3, and everything seemed to go swimmingly. I don't know that there was any real slowing of growth. I was worried I had taken too much off. Week 4 comes around, and there is top growth like nothing ever happened. Any ideas?

Hey friends, I want to try doing an apical cut and a low pruning. The idea is to make the apical cut 7 days before switching to flowering and the low pruning 3 days after switching to flowering. Is it right to do it this way or should I use another tactic? Thanks in advance.

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 parts

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.
