Will it hurt the plant to be kept in this stage for a long period. I'm trying to fix some deficiencies before I switch. Thanks!
How long can a plant be kept in preflower?

I believe they can stay in veg indefinitely with no harm. It's common to delay flipping the switch to fix problems. That's a big advantage of photoperiod plants over autos!

Can you top them while in preflower? Will they still grow new leaves?

By "preflower" I assume you mean what is usually called "veg"--the time before you switch a photoperiod plant to 12/12. And yeah, sure you can top them in veg.

DominaMortem ! I actually vegged mine for about 12 weeks and its finished with first week of 12/12 cycle. And I had topped 2 times in veg.
1st at the 3rd node on initial stem. The topped again about 3weeks later, on initial topping and on new growth's 2 or 3rd node

You can hold in veg indefinately. Ive had some mothers 7/8years. As long as you look after them correctly.
