I don't understand how things will work? Currently the top bud is way way ..in front of the other bud site? So how will things work? Surly the top bud will be finished first before the other bud site which hasn't even started flowering yet? I'm confused :/

Generaly top colas finish ripen before those underneath they are getting more photons thats why training your canopy will benefit anything lower. You can always harvest the tops first. These autos are all a few weeks apart but the two plants at the front have all the top buds nearly ready i will probably harvest the tops and let the middle and bottom nugs go a bit longer. Not sure yet. Some people use side and under canopy supplimental lighting.

Okay thanks lesson learned I probably stunted my autos during seedling phase anyway I was thinking about harvesting the tops if they finished earlier however I'm concerned that it might Herm the rest of the plant if it thinks that's dying it will Herm?

Very easy to stunt them at seedling stage i just ruined 4 beans recently myself, i dont think it will herm if you harvest the tops first

Would probably be worth ago to harvest the top when she's ready of course but if I don't then by the time the others bud sites are finished the top will be past it's ripeness? I dunno it's my first auto grow
