FIMMING requires more recovery time than topping, I think. At least it seems that way to me. Not familiar enough with how autos grow differently since I haven't grown one. I would imagine that if you FIMMED at the right time then you could see gains. Like maybe as soon as the main cola has 3-4 bud sites so those might potentially become colas.
 
Thatโ€™s a joke of course


โ€ฆโ€ฆ theyโ€™d never find me.
Sameโ€ฆ Iโ€™d be pig slop within hours ๐Ÿ˜†โ€ฆ. If that ๐Ÿคฃ

Damn I love that woman ๐Ÿ˜†๐Ÿ˜†๐Ÿ˜†

I could be in Mexico shed find me in an hour haha

Sheโ€™d come tell me cut the lawnโ€ฆ just so I knew she could find me anywhere ๐Ÿคฃ

Is fimming a high stress technique or more of a medium stress? Iโ€™m wondering if it would work better than topping with autos as it doesnโ€™t seem as drastic for the plant?

Also you guys are allowed to be right sometimes with your wives!! Man, whatโ€™s that like you lucky bastards? ๐Ÿ˜‚

Not a lot of experience with Autos but for photoperiods and indoors, I prefer to top. In my experience, topping slows down stretching/vertical growth more then fimming does.
 
Oh Iโ€™m not risking it on my 1g plant, ill try it on some other sucker!
Damnit! Saw my perfect opportunity to sabotage!๐Ÿ˜ˆ๐Ÿ˜‚

Totally kidding! I was using the โ€œmediumโ€ stress as not so much a FIM but maybe a pinch and twist? (Is FIM a removal of the top?) I still think I would at least bend it a little : ) thats just me though : )

The old pinch and twist ๐Ÿ˜‚

I believe itโ€™s a semi removal not the whole top, Iโ€™ve read somewhere that someone was trying to top and missed and FIM (fuck I missed) was born
 
Shift work fam haha was dead on here after 3 this morning lol
Heard! Donโ€™t miss NOCs at all! ๐ŸงŸโ€โ™‚๏ธ Might need to make an all nighters thread!๐Ÿ˜‚ though, someone from across the world from wherever you are would be the next day so it wouldnโ€™t be their night?๐Ÿ˜ณ๐Ÿคช

Get some rest man!(if thats a thing!hahah!)โœŒ๏ธ

I think with FIMMING it's about timing it right. I FIM strategically to take advantage of stretch. To focus the stretch on the lowest branches so that by the time the top recovers I have an even-ish canopy height and get more uniformly sized colas. Something ike this but on a smaller scale.

Really depends on what I want to accomplish. In this case I FIM right before flip. If I want it super bushy then I FIM the top early so the lower branches can develop enough to FIM also. That, it turn, focuses the growth back up top more. I do pretty much the same if I SCROG but a longer veg time to fill out my screen in that case. If I FIM well then I can get 10-12 leads from a small plant. A lot of that depends on how the top grows. I usually FIMMED and flipped at about 6"-8" tall because the finished plant couldn't exceed 2 ' in height or shit would start to get fried by the lights. I didn't really have a choice but to sort it out and get the most from my tiny space.
