Can I still top? (Advice on topping)

Hell yeah you can still top it, you would be crazy not to. Just cut the stem of the main cola in the middle of the plant at the very top just under the newest growth. Those really nice branches will become REALLY nice branches. The plant will put more energy into the side branches.

Agreed. As long as the plants haven't been recently stressed and you are still in veg you're generally good to go. Nice plants.

yup, looks good. just don't be alarmed, it's going to not do much for about a week, then it'll start growing vigorously again, and all the new shoots will start to come out.

On a side note... I've noticed some of the lower leaves are not as green as they used to be. They not quite yellowing but not as green as newer growth. Is this normal? I'm feeding biobizz bio grow and have fed Epsom salts for magnesium.

that's not too bad. they could use a little more food i think, but just a little. a lot of that happens naturally as the plant ages, leaves only live for so long, and as the new growth fills in above it, it gets less light.
