Hello all. What do you think of cutting down tops near the end of the grow? Plants are in backyard and I can smell them from like 4 houses away...no fence can hide that. I would like to get something out of it.. Will the rest of the buds really benefit.. any thoughts and opinions would be appreciated.

Dont take them yet unless it is a legal issue or you have a mold issue. Let them finish

You can really smell them that far away? Are you sure it’s not just on you or your clothes? I’m glad I don’t live in an area where houses are stacked on top of each other. Get a scary dog.
ETA: I wouldn’t cut tops unless they’re ready. Once you do, yes the bottom growth will benefit from more sun and getting more growth hormones. But, then that will grow bigger and stinkier too!

If they are willing to snatch them , let it happen
and next year consider 10 plots of ten plants a 1/4 mile apart

Cutting the tops off is like cutting off a fish's nose to keep it from smelling.

Get a cheap TV and a blow up doll so it looks like someone is in the tent. Worst case you wake up to your doll being violated and the buds all safe.
