LST or Mainlining?

I’m not sure which I am doing, but I’m incorporating both I believe.
I have a tendency to “play” to much with my girls and cause them to hermy.
These are some pictures.
Thoughts or concerns?
What’s your preference?
Would you top these again?
What are the thoughts on these plants?
I am considering taking off the branches below the topping for clones in the future, however they are coming along very nicely IMO.

What medium are you growing in??

Dr. Earth- Home Grown, Pot of Gold and Mother’s Land mixed with Vermiculite
I mixed the three Dr. Earth evenly and then added 4cf of Vermiculite.

There is sand on the top to keep fungus nats away.
I had the onset of fungus nats and I added the sand straight away.
Problem solved.

Looks like a mix of two training methods.

Truth be told there is no best way, the only best way is what is easiest for the grower to fill the space they are using to make the most of their situation.

Looking good.

I only need my LED to arrive for this tent.
I went again with the 1000w Full spectrum for my 4x4’ tent.
My clone seems to be going hem... I know it’s female. Being this early in the game it’s to hard to tell.
I’m quick to jump but I’m going to let it go and just chop any I see.
My first time cloning. I’m thinking when I cloned her it may have stressed to much.
I used rooting powder from Home Depot.
Which by the way I think I’m going to call my end product, “Home Depot “
