I am very different. I never top after flower starts. My last top happens one week before flower never more. Try my suggestion. I am still hps so I gotta stay a 1 foot away from light or burn. led has a future for me but Ia m slow to change on what works kinda dude. I guess you being led just let those suckers grow into the led light lol...I wouldn't but I am old school kinda professional hippy kinda dude.
The heat factor is still present with LED but a lot less of a worry. The temps in my tent this round were a little hotter than normal due to losing an inside clip fan to blow some air around during the flip/early flower stage. I ended up liking LED more than HPS for a bunch of reasons. Mainly electrical cost and the full spectrum light LED can produce is really efficient. Plus tent temps are far more manageable. I also grow 12/12 from seed, I know its a factor in the whole plant cycle.
When you went to LED did you buy same watts or different? Just learning the change concept. Let's say a 400 watt hps small grow should buy what led? How did you decide? How about venting heat and smell out the room?
I started off trying LED in a 2x4 tent at 300 watt and was sold on its performance. Between two tents I have a total of 900w. 2-300w in a 4x4 tent and the 2x4 is 300w. For a 4x4 two 300w lights are plenty of light. So all in all I'm 100w under a single 1k HPS bulb split two way.
I liked it. To be fair, I usually like Stardawg crosses, so that wasn't surprising. Grew without issues, decent yield, looked good. Always put me in a good mood. Might pick up more seeds but have too many others to bother just now, and I'm liking their Old School Glue just as much currently.i'm salivating over the pic of cowboy cookies, GMO x stardawg,
I've been equally impressed with Gunslinger and Raindance compared to the CC i grew out. I've got a Gunslinger that just went into 12/12 as of this morning. I currently have 2 phenos of Raindance, Gunslinger and a Knight Rider pheno in Veg.
I made a lot of nice crosses with a tasty CakeNChem male a few years ago. Might have to bump the Chucker's Paradise thread soon. Stardawg is AWESOME too, will be doing F4s maybe spring.
What's that like? I loved Tomahawk but it's been a little while now. Not familiar with Raindance.

Greenpoint has a Banana OG x Stardawg cross called Texas Butter. Might be right up your alley.

Texas Butter
Texas Butter is Banana Kush and it looks like: Ghost OG Kush x (Skunk #1 x Haze). Pure Banana Kush smells like its namesake. It is sweet, and has notes of plantain, green banana, and yellow banana runt candies.
(WOW. So wierd. The web-preview text is what the original writer had put in the description (WAY wrong), but if you click through and see the page, it is accurate now.)
Here's a review from their website:

Do you know if this was made with the clone only blue dream?Here is the lone picture that I have of a Dream Catcher just before harvest. I wish I had more pics, as it was a really big and colorful plant. The tomato cage is 54 inches high so I am pretty sure that this plant was about 4 foot of colas from top to bottom. I cant remember the yield but it was over 20 ounces for sure, this pic really shows only about the top 3/5 of this plant. Really dense flowers for a BD cross. This DreamCatcher colored up pretty fast. At about 5 weeks in I was pretty sure that this plant was going to go full purple on me. It didn't, the pink and maroons stayed throughout. Again really top notch bag appeal.
Another cross from GPS that you all should run if you have room and time!
