HELP! Growing too tall

I have these plants that are growing way too tall. I have no idea what to do? I’m worried about cutting them and LST? Do I need to do that?

I also was able to raise my lights up to the top. I just know these are going to double because this is just week one flower.

Tie the tops so they grow horizontal or supercroped them

Bend them over and tie them to the sides if the pots. More pics is great, load them up are you soil? What’s the bottom look like, how many plants, different schedule for some, one’s way more than two weeks in the back. They love to be tied up… So don’t the plants… lol

Shoot you could even take the top off as in topping and then have a clone. Kinda monster crop but not really since the one I’m talking about isn’t flowering. But you got a good problem to have sir.

@sallysue Looking at the picture you can shorten the cables on your light and gain 6 or 8 inchs. looks like you’re using two cables on each side of the light, use one an loop it through the ratchet hook. good luck

Use binder clips also to the edge then pipe cleaners to them to the stems

Cotton twine ,tie and pull the tops horizontal ( low stress ) .the point on the branch with the most stress . Take the branch between your thumb and your pointer finger and roll the branch back and forth between you fingers , until the branch start to bend. Take the other end of the twine and tie it to the pot.

Binder clips?

How can I tell the most stress and least stress? I have one that’s already bending on its own.

Binder clips to the pot is fine ,the point on your branch with the most bend is your stress point
