My plants leaned over last night because of too much heat this morning. (woke up late lol) Anyways I'm wondering how I can correct this, I was thinking about cutting off the tops and losing some of the bud that has started. My plants are 13 days into flowering and have doubled in size it seems like. They're HUGE, like 5 feet tall. Already I need a ladder just to see the tops of them.
Also I was wondering if I could bend them around in a U shape, but I'm worried that might break them. Please help me!!! Here are some pics, I'm new to posting pics though hope this works.bent over.jpg

Find a way to support them, either from below with stakes or from above with string and slings. How hot did it get?

Looks like you're in a hydro setup?

i wouldn't do anything too drastic

Ties the tops up with some string from above. Keep the heat down and they should come back from wilting in 12 -24 hours.

dont go cuting anything in flowering. you shouldnt be bending right now either.

is it an indoor grow? and the problem is there getting too close to the lights? they may need to go out doors or somewhere with a taller ceiling

or maybe i dont fully understand the problem

very hot I'm guessing, I'm using a 400hps, and the tops of the plants were about 5 inches away lol. Thats why I don't want to try an tie them back up there. I was thinking about keeping them clipped at the top, or tieing them somehow bent U shaped. I had no idea they would grow that fast, like 3-4 inches a day easily. I didn't want to clip them while they were in their flowering stage because I read here somewhere that stresses the plants and could cause hermies. But now I that know they're all female. I'm thinking I might be able to. I don't know though. This is my first indoor grow.

I would tie them up about 1 foot from the top, and train the tops horizontal.

Here's a rough sketch:
