Please can someone help me out here, i've only ever grown autoflowering in the past so could do with some info. I LSTed my fem white rhino seed and it's doing great to good nearly lol. So much so that i think i'm going to run out of hight room before it's ready. So can i top the side branches that i've tied down??? Oh and also if i can, can i top them even though it's in flower??? It's only been in flower a couple of days so hasn't even started to flower yet. On the flowering front how long till it will start to flower??? One last thing i'm fairly sure that my electric went off yesterday when i was out as all my timers though out the house, (not just the ones for my plants,) are out by about an hour so i'm guessing at some point the electric went off and my plant has been in the dark for an hour maybe a bit less when it shouldn't have been will this have effected it??? I really hope not as i've been growing it for over 2 months i'll be gutted if it's turned it male. Sorry about all the questions everyone!!! Thanks in advance for any help.

Dont top if you are already in flower, it will stall it out.....takes about 1-3 weeks to see buds starting.

if you need to you can top your plants in flower if its only been a few days.. she will continue to grow for about 7-14 days after 12/12 befor starting to flower.. also no worries on your power going out for an hr or so just reset your timers and keep going forward..

i grow sog and i cut branches from the bottom up to 2 weeks in with no stress to plants.. could be different with tops i never tried in flower? it might slow the growth some but it wont cause any serious problems..
