Light burn, any advise?

Hello growers, I was wondering if I could get some advice. Here is a bit of data. I am growing 1 plant, it is my second plant ever, and it is in a 5X5X7 tent. It has a Vivosun 1000 watt MH/HPS lighting system, is about 3 weeks into flower and the light is set at 600 watts. I changed from a MH bulb to a HPS bulb yesterday. The plant is in a 5 Gallon fabric pot with a 75/20 Coco/Perlite mix for medium. It was supposed to be an Early Miss Auto from Crop King seeds but it didn't Auto. After 11 weeks in veg I changed the lights to 12/12 to see if I could make it start to flower and thankfully it did but she is a bit of a beast.

Now for the issues, I went away for 9 days and had my son watering the plant. The one cola grew and got too close to the light so when I came home I found the top of the one cola burned a bit. I pulled the cola over away from the light and tied it down to avoid further damage and it is only on the one but I am not sure if I should be doing anything else? Should I clip the top of the cola, the whole cola or just let it be and see how it goes? Here are some pics.
