some people dont top and some people bend
For this we must speak to Don Carty.....
The Don knows...

She will be fine outside. I've grown Autos outside many times. I never took my Autos. To short of a life span.

I would start bending that main stem over slowly and keep bending until you clear the light a little at a time. That bud looks to be around 10-15 days into flowering, having to guess of course, and not sure supercropping would be good at a late stage. Carty would know

I see now @WeedHopper the second thread…

that main stem looks pretty stiff already but if you could possibly keep it in the tent till finish, I think it would be better for this specific plant since it is use to 24/7 of LED lights.
a good time to plant some new seeds outside tho in natural light as a back up. You could bend that top down a bit by tying it off to something till it’s finished growing tall.

I don’t run my autos on 24/7 lights but I do know that they don’t like being moved to Mother Nature lighting after spending time in 18/6 LEDs.

That’s quite an interesting bit of information, thank you much. I am considering growing autos and locking the soil moisture while stressing them gently using changes in atmospheric conditions using light, temperature and humidity. I consider this information gives me a better feeling of what that could accomplish.
