Ok so one of my plants is getting close the top its only the 3rd week of flowering. The thing is its not under light directly. (Look at the 1st picture) So if it keeps growing, won't it just start growing outward instead of up when it reaches the top? And it won't burn because its not under light directly. So theirs no need to bend right. But i also heard you shouldn't stress the plant out at all when the lights are off. If the plant reaches the top and starts growing outwards is that going to stress the plant out if its goin on when the lights are off?

Ok now Question two. My setup is getting crowded. (See Picture 2) Especially with the plant thats about to hit the top. Some of the leaves are blocking lights from getting to the bottom. Should I cut these leaves? I heard you need the leaves because the plant is using energy from the leaves. Any advice? And if you say cut the leaves I shouldn't cut all the extra leaves should I?

Thanxs for the help
