LST you can start as early as you want really, Topping I would wait until 5-6 nodes but that's just my preference.

Once im in veg i do week 1 nutes. Once week 1 is over i top. I do that first two weeks then recover 1 week. Then should be ready for flower.

Genetics and size of plant matters. Dont top if she is still super slim.

As you can see from the comments, it's grower preference. After experimenting on multiple plants, my best end results are obtained by waiting for a healthy 5th node, whether I top or LST.

As long as you are happy that they are growing good do whatever you want to help them out :)

Not a lot of wrong answers with beneficial stuff like training :) even if you over do it on one grow you will learn and do it better next time!

The min they pop, a few times a day move your seedlings back and forth this will make mainstem harden faster.
