High loganchan, NO PLEASE DO NOT CUT!!! They will still fatten up and your plants look beautiful. I can see from the leaves that this is a sativa strain. The buds stay smaller and growing takes longer. So be patient with your plant and she will give you big, fat and juicy buds as a reward in return! Happy Growing! 😋

It is growing just fine, maybe if you would give some nutrient would help, and NO!!! Do not cut yet far too early it looks like a week 5 or even 4 into flower... let it grow!!

Are you asking if you should cut this ONE branch? I certainly wouldn't... unless they're shading other bud sites that are bigger and better... let them go to their full potential - you don't know what that will be! Good luck!

not harvesting the plant, just the top of that one stem is not doing well.

You know what, I think the heat got to her as it did to some of my grow (others in my grow weren't as badly affected for some reason - genetics, probably)... It's up to you how much more time you should give them... have you taken a look at the trichs yet? If they are cloudy, I would go ahead and chop... if they're still clear, then you'd be rather chopping down something that will not do much for you... and I would give them more time... they may not bulk up any more but the effects you get from the smoke would be improved if you can get the trichs at least to the cloudy stage and the hell with what it looks like! Your call... and good luck with making the decision!
