I have two or three plants that are getting too tall(3 inches from lights) so i've moved them 8 or so inches away from the hood itself and have been turning daily, basically the top is no longer getting good light. I already bent and tied one of the tops about a foot from the top(i don't want to do this to all of them because i don't have light/space to have a 12-18 inches of plant shading the rest of the plants underneath). They are pretty much done stretching(almost 3 weeks of flower). Am I going to kill my yield if i topped the other couple plants or should i just do whatever i can to try and tiedown/restrain in whatever kind of way i can at this point. Any tips/suggestions will be appreciated. FYI, i have already bolted the hoods to the ceiling with fireproof material in between the hood and 2x4's to be safe, so i can't raise the lights anymore. The only other thing i could do with lights is move them onto the walls and put them at a slight angle towards the middle of the room(about 10x10 with a 1000 and 400 right now, but lights would be 4-5 feet from center of room obviously and i think that's a little far from what i've read/been taught. Thanks again.
