Is she ready?

I'm going to be mainlining this pk plant. It's finally got a bit of a 5th node going on but im not sure if you would count it as a full set of leaves yet .does she look ready to be topped? And another quick question, if I'm trying to remove a growth tip, do they just pluck off? Or do you have to cut them off?

My preference on plants that have really tight node spacing would be to wait for the next node. Mainlining gets tricky when node is stacked on node so I'd try and let her stretch a bit .
 
Alright man thanks for the tips! But apparently this strain doesn't grow more than 3 feet so maybe that's why? 1st grow here haha
 
I wasn't going to manifold. But my other plants didn't make it so I started a couple more. but I don't have much of a choice but to flower at the same time (limited lighting) so I'm going to fully manifold this one and just LST the other ones that are still seedlings in the dirt, day 2!
 
Just want to add about topping or using FIM .. always cut leaving a slight stem above the node you are cutting at to allow the stem space as it fattens. I saw a friend top a plant and he cut it so close to the node as the stem grew fatter it actually began to split around the new stem growth.
 
Is funny you mentioned leaving a bit of a stem when you Fim or Top. I started doing that when I defol. I noticed that it strengthens the point where new laterals begin. As oppose to when I cut it flush.
