Veg with autos. Veg plants turned into monsters.....

So I used to have two 4x4 tents. Tore them down for a few months. Ones unrepairable. So I’m doing veg on 18/6 with some autos. My tent is 6ft tall and my quantum boards have basically been two or three inches away the whole time. Have to raise as the plants grow. My tent is 6ft tall I think, and my filter is huge and maybe a foot lower than the top of tent. My veg plants are a foot to a foot and a half max from the filter. I know they’re gonna stretch even more. This pic was 3 weeks ago ish. Look at the milk jug for reference.... what do I do?

Turn my lowercase l (L) branches into number 7 shaped branches and let them hook back upwards? Or should I break them more so in half and not sevens?
I pinch between my thumb and forefinger with pressure, and roll my fingers back and forth continuously increasing the pressure until the stem simply falls over. I suppose it would be the shape of a "7", yes. Mostly they drop beyond 90 degrees. Just prop the bent stems in such a way that they'll receive light and re-start some vertical growth.

If you break a branch, just support it somehow, and slap a couple of wraps of electrical tape over the joint.
