Cut the top bud 15 days before harvest

Hello everyone, in 15 days I will harvest my first cycle. One of the plants is not supporting the weight of the top bud and keeps falling to the sides. Would it be okay to cut this top bud before harvest? I think it would be possible to bring the plant closer to lighting.

Get some yoyo plant hangers. They are fairly cheap and a necessity if growing huge buds. Of course you can use DIY methods if preferred. But they are very handy.

One of the things I do is to take a strip of soft cloth and literally tie it to the top of the tent so it's supported... this won't/doesn't harm the bud and you can keep it going until you're ready to harvest. If this isn't an option, you can always put a long-enough stake in the pot and loosely tie it to the stake... ANYTHING to give it support that it's crying out for! Don't give up on it! Sounds like it's going to be a great harvest - some people would kill for such a heavy bud!
