Help!!

My plants have grown ridiculously fast since I switched to flowering and they are about to be touching my light (already as high as it can go). Can I top these plants or should I let them burn against the light? I'm just trying to keep from causing them to hermie. Also I'm thinking about hanging the light vertically and then just turning them daily. What are my options (assuming I have any)?

If it is a high pressure sodium or metal halide, do not let them grow to the light. Flouros it's not as much of a concern. You can tie them down to prevent this, as long as you dont snap them you are okay. Don't be afraid to bend them to conform to your room, they can handle it. The growth will find which way is up in a matter of hours.

LST sounds like your only choice, it too late to top without causing quite a bit of harm. just tie a peice of string round the top and gently bent it down and tie it to a screw u can put into your plant pot.

try to gently tie the plant down, bend it like a Bow be very careful though. it should be okay. the plant will look wierd at first but it will sort itself out, turn it's leaves toward the light and continue growing vertically from the bend.
