in theory, yes it would grow more bud. but you can never truly tell if its growing more or less than it could, until you try a natural non-topped, LST method, and then try the LST method and compared dry harvested weight. the only way to know if LST is for you, is to try it both ways.

A good week would be at week 3, but give at least a week or 2 for adjustments....

No you shouldn't top Low Ryder 2, aren't they an autoflower? If it is....and I think they are, that will stunt growth and they flower at a certain time and you will loose out big time

you should lst in the veg stage, so there is time for your shoots to develop, but you can tie down you plants anytime in the flowering stage if they are getting too tall or in the way.
Check out my journal in my sig, it's my first lst but is comming along very well
