Should I f.i.m or top?

fim and shake the shit out of them, pinch or twist stalks but don't break or fold them. A fan is good. Mainlining is good it you are able to do so with that plant.
I'm poking my nose in but what do you mean by "shake the shit out of them"? I know about pinching and twisting. I've always had a light hand but last night I accidently broke a branch. Wahhh! It was a small one. I've never heard "shake" before. Can you elaborate?

You grab the main stalk or a branch and shake it. It strengthens the plant like being in a strong wind. It does take a growers touch though. you don't want to shake it to the point of snapping branches.

Pinching and twisting is like supercropping. I personally think it is (supercropping) best when right before or during early flower. I only do it when trying to level out the canopy or when height is an issue. Fimming gives more cola sites. Supercropping doesn't.

Also, unless you are careful with supercropping you can break off a key piece of your plant. It works, but you must have a gentle touch.
