trimming in flowering stage?

hi
im growing an outdoor plant right now and its been about 4 months. where i live the light cycle is 12-12 all year round. my plant is fairly small to others i've seen online, is skinny and tall, not bushy. I want it to be bushy for better buds and i know you can trim the apex of plant off to allow outwards growth. but since my plant is already budding would it be worth it to take that one cross section off? or should i just leave it alone and get what i get?
thanks
