This is my first grow and I didn't top/trim my plants before putting them into flowering. Its now a week into flowering and I realise its too late.

Is this a big issue or will the bud still be decent? Growing killing-fields f2.

Bud will be fine,
You will have only one main cola wheras you would have two if you topped
you might have to tie the plant down if the top bud gets too heavy

I can grow multiple top colas just buy vegging under a 1000w light, the side shoots eventually outgrow the main top.

Anyways your plants will be fine, topping really isnt that important, you dont get bigger yields, just more smaller buds.

That being said, as far as Trimming, pruning the lower branches is always a good idea, and its not too late to remove weak lower branches during flowering, the earlier the better but trimming off the lower weak branches will send more energy to the top colas.

Good luck
