Hello, I have a question that some might find a little silly but I couldn't find reliable info on this.
I have 2 autoflowering plants in a 40x40cm tent that will be harvested in about 2 weeks. One plant was meant as a backup, so I kept it in a very small pot which explains the small growth and the yellow leafs. However, it started flowering 1-2 weeks early and already has plenty of those white hairs, which are starting to turn yellow. The other plant is about 60cm and looks perfectly healthy, covering almost all the available space.
My question: would it be advisable to cut a few small parts off without the plant stopping further thc production? Like the hairs on top, they should already contain plenty of thc.
I really need to smoke soon and there are no alternatives available at the moment, but my plants are kind of important to me.
I probably don't even have to dry it because I'm vaping, and the small backup plant shouldn't have more than 10g when it's ready to harvest.
Thanks for your suggestions.

You mean snipping off buds that aren't ready. Drying em fast. For desperation reasons? It can be done. But it's not worth it.

It takes 2 weeks to cure. Fresh bud all 4 of my strains gave me a headache. Even quickly dried bud gave me a headache/headrush NEEDS curing.

Air flow over some small buds ( not directly on them) Can dry out tester buds in a few days works for testers- but there’s no substitute for slow dried/cured bud
