How far can I bend her over?

This Critical Jack Herer is out of control. I've got the headroom to let her finish, but the other two won't like the light that high. I want to bend the top over and down, putting it right in the center under the light. Will that expose anything too tender for full light; leaf bottoms, etc?

Lo B,
The leaves will turn to face the light...phototropism. Another of natures wonders.

Dont bend your plants this far into flower unless you have to. You have the headroom so just lift the other up off the ground and put em on bricks or phone books or egg crates or somethin. I stop bending & topping 10-14 days before flip, why needlessly stress em when there budding, thats what veg is for.
 

Wait, what?

In one day I've been introduced to the term "Bud Porn" and now "Bending her over". I was already strange before I got here :P

Any info I give is based on what I would be comfortable doing.
Please get other opinions.

In nature plants don't live in plastic buckets but at my house they do or they get the f**k out.

Oh yous guys!
I've already been raising the shorter ones, I've got them on a wire rack and I've also got 2x4's under the Hawaiian.
I'll just continue down that path I guess. That cjh better get a big-ass cola! Funny, it started out as the slowest and smallest.

Like j bone says it's alright to bend in veg but into flower I wouldn't bend the plant as you will probably stunt growth of your final product and do more harm than good

I agree u wouldnt bend during flower UNLESS U ABSOLUTELY HAVE TO, the stock will probly be preety hard at this point so take sum plyers and a thik rag to pinch stock to bend it
Again this isnt the best idea
i would simply scrog if it was me
but thats just me
