Fim stands for (F**K I Missed) and originated when a grower attempted to top but missed. They accidentally left some of the top on the plant and instead of 2 tops forming, they got 4 and a new method of cannabis plant training was born.

Topping is used to increase the number of top nugs we end up with. Every time you top a growth, 2 growths will grow in it’s place. The Picture above was topped and now is growing 2 branches instead of 1, doubling the amount of nugs.

Low Stress Training is how we make the plant grow where we want it to. If the stalk or branches are bent and held in place for a long period of time, they will adapt and change their shape to grow around the resistance instead of fighting it.

Some growers use low stress training to grow a plant in a certain direction while others will use it to completely alter the original path the plant had in mind. The point is that LST is a skill and it can be applied at a varying levels.

When Low Stress Training is applied along side with Topping, the change in shape from a traditional plant can be drastic.
