Should I top? Nute help!

Hello, I have a soil (ffof) grow, 400 watt mh/hps with an excellent cooling system. I currently have my 11 day old plants about 6 inches from air cooled hood. They are currently on the 4th node already. I only have 4 weeks to veg and 9 weeks to bloom. I have 3 GHS SLH. Should I top my plants after the second node (but I'll wait till I have 5 nodes) to get 4 main colas? Or should I just leave it? And should I bother with LST? My plants can grow up to 4.5 feet tall with no issue, but nothing over that. I was originally going to scrog but now I only have 4 weeks to veg, but originally was going to have 6-7 weeks veg. My plants seem to be growing very fast but then again, this is my first grow so I wouldn't know.

P.S. I want to start using my fox farm nutes already. Do I use 1/4 strength of the general feeding on the bottle? And can I give it every watering or every other? Can I make a water and nute mix and use it for the whole week or longer, or only less time
