i've been picking and smoking some lower branches but some buds are so small there not worth trimming,can i harvest the good bud/branches and let the rest(lower) grow a few more weeks ,or should i just cut them off to let the plant focus its energy on the top branches?

You can harvest the top and finish the lower buds I just did it works great :bigjoint:

most likely not, as the top is already benefitting from the more light thing and cutting will cause a little bit of stress that the plant will try to fix
