Light Bleaching Plants Too Tall.

Hey guys so I built a cabinet that stands about 5'7 tall and the plants are not pretty close to the light. I think the plants are getting light burned.

Specs:
2x 300w P300 LED grow lights
Distance from light: 8 inches
Plants are in there 3rd week of flowering.

Overall what would you guys recommend for reducing the amount of light? Im pretty much out of room to raise the lights and im a little lost on what to do.

An Idea I had was just to put some paper over the lights to take some of the light away from the canopy. thoughts?

Yea it's fine it's better than doing actual physical harm to them. You should have seen this coming during week 1 and 2 but it's better to do a little training late than have your plant burnt up by your light

Tie from below the main colas themselves don't actually tie off to the very tip or anything like that, and then slowly bend it and tie it off to the pot or the stem lower down or whatever you choose

And by all means seek out others advice, that is just what I would do. I do not claim to be an expert.

Just to give yall a little more insight im uploading pics now.
So pretty much its early and they are starting to bud but im not sure if that is bleached or not? I did what you said and kinda bent them a little to the side getting them away from the light. But what do you guys think?
