Help with plants stretching too much.

The girls are getting way too tall. The stretch they had was insane. Some branches have grown up past the lights. Should I supercrop this late in flower? (28 days) or just dim the lights so they don’t burn the buds? Most of the canopy is at about 60dli at 70% power

like wicket said.. even directly attaching light to frame without a rope-ratchet hanger. just use 2 large carbiners or 4 hst.. no big deal if yououhave to. try to visuallize a pattern so you don't have cross-crossing colas. "Don't cross the streams!"

Man I had the same problem in my 1 meter high box with pineapple express. The plant touched the lamp and some leaves were electrocuted. I did supercropping at the beginning of flowering, and in the middle of flowering and she feels great. At first it may look scary, as if the buds will now break the stem from their weight, but they quickly get stronger and even start to rise later. The most important thing is to knead the stem well and do it no sooner than 24 hours after watering! It is best when the pot is dry.

Is there no way to hang it even higher? Like is there still a fan and filter at the top which you could move outside of the tent? You could then super crop the largest ones.
