First time growing, heading into flower

4 days into flower. Topping, fimming, lollipoping aside, I am looking for any feedback on my first time grow of Cannatonic x cannatsu. I picked up a clone at a dispensary, threw it in a Home Depot bucket with some drain holes, fed it general hydroponics kit in drain to waste recommended levels. Any guidance to increase yield is helpful. Mainly not sure if I should be trimming away at bottom feeders, if my strain really is as described, has the sex already revealed itself... You know everything. Also, I apparently suck at taking clones, both in Rockwool and in water cups. #Fml

This was what my topping/FIMing turned into (don't use those techniques in flower if you want good yield and no potential herms):

Indicas and sativas grow different. You may just have a strain that is naturally shorter and bushier. Thats perfectly fine. Also give it some time to grow. Dont worry she will speed up on you.

Definitely had a lot of patience during veg, and she blew up on me. I guess seeing her slow down at the end of was my concern. Do you think this is a hybrid phenotype? Just from looking at her, I don't know what to call her. My main concern is whether or not I should be remove excess (lower) foliage.
