Harvesting issue

I am fairly confident that some of my plants are done... (at the tops, no more fan leaves, plus crystallized leaves curling up around a nice, dank, colorful spike). On the other hand, the bottom buds are really skimpy and I have a feeling that there may be another surge of blossoming in them, (mainly cuz they still have somewhat healthy fan leaves). Should I maybe lop off/harvest the top flowers that are ready and let the bottom of the plants do their thing, or should I just wait it out a little more and see what happens with the entire plant? They are indoor sativas grown with halogen set on 14 dark, and I cut off their food supply cuz the tops look so ready. Sorry this is so lengthy...it is because I dont have a camera to take pictures so I am trying to be descriptive as possible. Anyone have suggestion on what I should do? And what is the worst that will happen to the tops if I dont do anything? Need input bad right now...

Quote for truth. I have seen this done before. The plant started outside and was moved inside under CFL. The top was cut and the bottom placed under HPS. Still grew fine.

That input was great. Thanks so much.

Hey missy I am late but be assured you can whack the tops and flower the bottoms for a bit longer. Haze2
