Couple quick questions

I have one big plant under a 400 watt HPS.

would it be alright to cut the big tops uptop and leave the bottom ones to grow some more?

Also i'm growing in a 5 gallon bubble bucket.
i've read that if i use molasses to try to increase resin production in a hydro grow that it will actually kill the plant?

other than sticking something in the stem a day before harvest, putting ice cubes to simulate the first frost, and using a UVB light what are some other ways to increase bud production?

ive heard you can cut the tops off the plant to get more light to the lowerd buds but i would not risk stressing the plant out that is just my thought

this is the question i wanted answered the most.

i've heard that it was perfectly ok because the plant is dying anyways, and i've also heard that it would stress the plant.


can anybody shed light on this?

i'd rather not cut buds that end up being reallly really small
