Should I Top or Fim?

So I’m into week 4 of my cabinet grow and just wondering whether I should top or fim these girls or should I just leave them. As of right now....

the larger plant stands 22” from the floor of the cabinet including its 5 gal pot. The other is about 16”.

I’ve been doing LST with these ones and I’m going to build a Scrog net this weekend from some pvc.

any opinions would be greatly appreciated.

They are photos right? If so, should have topped earlier. Unless you plan to veg for another month, I wouldn’t.

Topping or fimming gives smaller popcorn buds and gives a bushier plant usually resulting in larger yields. Indoors it makes the plants more manageable. I would say that as soon as the plant is well rooted and has healthy growth is the best time. As long as you are still in veg you can top or fim but you want to give the new tops time to grow before flower.
