Change from automatic to manual grade posting after student submissions.

Apologies in advance for what I'm sure is a very straightforward answer:

I am grading essay responses (SpeedGrader) to a Classic Quiz prior to its due date; however, I want to hide scores/submission comments to ensure students do not assist one another with my feedback before the item is due for the entire class.

I'm aware that I should have used a manual posting policy, and will do so on future essays. For this particular assignment, some students have already submitted their work. If I set the grade policy for this particular item to "manual" now, will it apply to those students who have already submitted work, as long as I haven't graded their submissions? I know that changing a graded item's policy from automatic to manual does not apply retroactively to those already-graded submissions, but what about those that have been submitted, but have not been manually assigned grades? (these entries simply show the submission icon in the Canvas gradebook)

Appreciate any feedback, and thank you.
