What period of vegging?
I've heard that you can fim or top as early as four nodes high.
Is there another way to keep her short and bushy?

i wait till there is at least 5 nodes but thats just me , i also use the 12-1 light cycle which seems to keep them short and bushy ... instead of topping i just wait till she is about 12"-15" high and LST the top down ..

lol we were all new at one time ...
i use the 12hr on-5.5hr off-1hr on-5.5 off .. as my veg cycle ..keeps them short and busy .. works well for me as i said ..but others have their own ideas lol .. LST is low stress training .. tying the plant down with string/wire .. what i do is bend the top of the plant over, use a shoelace to keep it in place ... if you search LST you can get pics of how its done .. sorry couldnt be more help lol i dont explain well lol
