Growing my first lady!!!

So, Im completely new to the growing game...with cannabis at least. Ive watched many videos of all sorts of stressing, read forums and have made my best decisions based on what info ive been able to gather. Shes in week 3 of flower and looking good from what i can tell. Still waiting for my tent and inline fan and carbon filter are right behind. I guess my question is moreso to any tips based on what you can see that I could/should have done if anything. Also ordered seeds as well that have arrived and am getting antsy to start. Anywho, i will attach some pics so you can see where shes been....im hoping to find a community where I can get input to help me become a better grower. I habe 2 herniated disc in my lumbar so I am growing for personal medication. Any and all suggestions are welcome:)
Oh yeah, also she was planted with Fox Farms, used a fish fertilizer for Nitro, Happy frog for bloom and 6.5 ph filtered water.

One of my main concerns was that I may have topped it too much, but after looking at pictures, there are so many methods and varieties of techniques that ive seen anything from 1 main cola only, a spiral bonzai and even a menorah shaped mainline. Knowing genetics helps too, but how would you know which method to use or which ones not to? Or is it all trial and error?
 
So i finally got my grow tent in the mail. Noticed a few tiny pinhole spots of light through the zipper but other than that, it seems solid for $50. So my next question is: I know I need a 4 inch inline and carbon filter. Any suggestions on budget friendly but not crap? Also what do I need to bring fresh air in...just a good small fan with clamp or another small inline?

You likely don’t need an extra fan to bring air in. The output fan should reduce pressure in the tent and bring air in from the outside. Most or I imagine all grow tents have places for air to enter the tent. If the walls aren’t getting sucked in you are fine. You will want a small clip on fan or two inside the tent for airflow.
 
Anyone have any idea of possible genetics? Its got leaves like a sativa, smells super fruity, yet kinda looks indica like as far as structure, no? Prob a hybrid?..
 
So, i used my loupe and everything looks pretty clear, but i do some some amber colored trichomes on some leaves here and there....huh? Im confused. How did it skip the milky state?

look at the buds don't go by leaves. they ripen faster and people tend to harvest early following the leaves
