Will chopping the top half of a plant in bud delay the finishing of the lower half of the plant (buds)? like in veg...jus curious

Dude that makes no sense,how do you have buds in veg?Any topping is gonna stress and slow the plants growth.

I hack off the tops that are done and let the rest finish! Never had a problem with it indoors or out.

I siad topping "like in veg"
I chopped top colas.....
smaller younger buds below still have some to go..guessing they will be stunted for a day or two?

Lots of growers do that. The lower buds usually are light deprived and don't mature like top colas. Yea, cut that female and keep your reg lite sched. The lower buds will fatten and ripen.
