Early buds...can I top still

I am at the end of my second full week of 12/12 and my plants are budding already. This is my first time budding clones from this mother. It is WW and seems to be going amazingly.

My question is the clones have already started to bud, can and/or should I top it even thought it is budding?

As always your help is greatly appreciated!

if your going to flower your plant from here on out dont top it. if your ganna reveg, top when new growth appears. show some pics.

Ya, if you're in the second week of flower already I would just let them go.

From what I understand, topping at this point won't really do anything, but I could be wrong

it would divert chemical energy from bud production into trying to grow 2 new branches, which wouldnt be very large by the end of flowering.

short answer, you could do it. but it would slightly decrease quality and deff decreese overall yeaild
