Lookin good! Not sure hard to tell if its a fim or top. Generally speaking, with a top youll get two even upward growing nodes, and with fim i think you get 4.

Here, hope this helps...

@gardnguyahoy thanks man and hopefully I get 4.

I can definitely see two, it's a real trick to be able to push it to four when it 'wants' to make two. Welcome! :)

I cant wait to start doing this kinda stuff..

Here a little update of the top or fim or whatever it is. Seems like it wants 2 colas but the other 2 are fighting as well.

Within some hours look at how she looks now. Seems like I didn't successfully top though. Looks like I just trimmed the leaves :(

You got it! You're getting four tops. Very good! All you want to do is get the very tip of the meristem.

That's great! Thanks for the info @Seamaiden my girl looked a bit down lately so I put her a little lower from the light. But too much and I changed my fan placement to a better place for a good 75 degrees with lights on. This is how she looks now reaching for the sky! And she's getting taller as well :D
