Im starting the third week of flowering and they just keep growing, i cut the nitrogen way back and yet everyday i noticed about 1/4 to 1/2 inch growth. they are now about 4 in from the light and i cant get my light any higher. luckily i have an air cooled light so the heat isnt that bad about three inches below but today i noticed the leafs are folding like tacos, which from what i understand is due to heat stress. Not quite what to do since they still have a long haul ahead of them. Tomorrow im changin to aggressive bloom which completely cuts out the nitrogen, by the way im using gh 3part. Will this stop growth? What can i do about the plant tops too close to the light, should i bend them? Anyone looking to grow big bud be cautious!!! Pictures below.

Maybe supercrop them? Maybe take a whole bunch of clones for the tops before it's too late? Not really sure what to do with plants that big! Stretching is crucial in flower! Good luck on whatever you decide to do!!
