So one of my THC Bomb plants has been growing insanely rapidly, I'm a bit suspicious of it being a male... 
(the problem child is the one in the back left, the ones in the middle and front are Sensi Kush, except the one front left which is also THC Bomb, as is the one in the back right, which is also growing very rapidly, and even moreso since I've put them into flowering).
Anyway, after already raising the light up twice because it got so tall, I get home from work today to find out that the plant grew up to my light (inside an EasyCool 6, so it has a glass plate shielding it and not much heat escapes, but I guess enough did..) and got burnt, so to speak. The topmost leaves are all shriveled and dry, but the rest of the plant seems fine. I can't provide a picture right now since the only ones I took turned out too line-y (from the HPS, I'm sure you know what I mean) and I forgot to take one before the light turned off for the dark cycle. I gave the plant a bit of extra water (watering was yesterday) and just left it. Raised the light up another few inches but I guess I have two problems:
1 - what will happen to the one that got too tall? Will there be no main cola? Will vertical height be reduced (dear god please tell me yes)? Will there be a main cola, just without the top part? Will the top part just dry up and fall off, and if so, what happens with vertical growth then?
2 - it's too tall. and the sister THC Bomb plant next to it, also very sativa, is starting to get pretty tall too. Guess I vegged them too long. What should I do about this? I can only raise my light a few more inches if they grow taller, because that's the limit of my closet space. How can I limit their vertical growth? The more specific you are the better.
Thanks guys. Don't know how I'd do this without you.
