Fimming gone wrong?

NebulaCultivatorstarted grow question 2y ago

Did my Fimming attempt go wrong? I fimmed my plant 5 days ago but for me it seems that it just grows normal, may i've cut too little? should i try again? or should i give it a few more days to finally see the results? Last pic is 5 days ago right after fimming.

Yes, you missed, this is why I gave up on "fimming".......too easy to get wrong and it really slows the plant down while it recovers. Plain/normal topping is far easier to get right and is the only technique I would ever do these days. The plants recover much faster also. You might also want to transplant asap and ease up on the nutrients a bit too.

You have to do it again. The middle is still there usually u will have just the side branches left or with some special techniques u can have 4… I never had the luck^^ But in your case I looks like there was some plant part left of the middle part. I usually use a fine fingernail cutter ✂️. Good lick next time

Yup, you missed. It's all in the luck of the cut really. I prefer topping to FIMing to eliminate the guesswork but you can certainly try again if you desire.

Fimming again?About the Frosty Friday, I'm still learning to HST / Topping / Fimming. I picked it up from a local Growshop last week and it was topped and all the branches were fimmed. I did some LST and it seems to recover pretty fast, should I keep fimming the branches? 4 Branches/ 14 Shoot

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.

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?

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?
