I FIMed my girl about a week maybe a little less ago, now the top has started to grow again... should i just top it all off or fim again... thanks
 
If you top what you just FIM'd, then the FIMing was an exercise, wasn't it? You're trying to encourage more branching when you FIM, do you see that branching? If so and it's looking like it's ready to make more nodes, then go ahead and FIM it again. Does that make sense?
 
oh and on more question... when i fimmed i snipped 90% of the top leaves and now that area where was fimmed has grown a tadout and is now two brances w/ ends cut off, should i cut those off or let em gro and keep fimmmin?? THANKS
 
Ah.. to FIM the branches, or just FIM the main..? I think it depends on how you're planning on growing out the plant. If you have the space for it to get really bushy, then go ahead and FIM the FIMs. Since I'm LSTing the plant, I will only FIM the main. Again, assuming that all FIM will produce two branches just under that node.
 
yeah... my space is limited in a way. my set up wont let her grow much higher... ans its already well over 2 feet... and a little spaced out between nodes, what you think?

Also, another girl is about 3/4 that age and shorter, but very compact, should i FIM her soon?
 
Yes, I would FIM. Sorry for not responding sooner, I think I got one of those salmonella tomatoes or something.
 
oh yeah, i need to leave town for a few days and was wondering if it would be ok to switch to 18/6 light period just to be on the safe side and no fires, I Have it on 24 hour now
 
I don't do any indoor growing, but I also don't see why that would be a problem to allow 6 hours of darkness. For sure you'd have to ask one of the indoor growing peeps.
