I have a really important question Would it be ok if I Cut the top off of my plant would the rest countinue to grow. The reason I ask is because they are indoor and the top are almost done and the bottom can still grow alot more. so was wondering if the rest of the plant would still grow if I cut the top off.

I'm not an expert but if it looks ready to harvest and the trichomes are where you want them to be I don't see why not.

I wouldn't advise chopping the whole top of the plant, this could cause a lot of the stress to plant, if the top looks done, the rest shouldn't be too far off, just sit it out and be patient - good things come to those who wait

Its fine to harvest what is ripe and let the rest get ripe. Its at the end so the stress is no big deal. Its only going to be 1 week or 2 until ya chop the rest.
