Hey so, very soon my plants will be touching my AG lights, and due to my grow location i cant raise the light at all.

Can I just cut off the 2 highest colas right now and then hopefully yeild from the smaller buds that are just started to come up for the lower part of the plan? (see picture)

ive been flowering for a bout 3 weeks

pics didn't show up mate. You cut off top colas after 3 weeks? Must have made you cry!

looks like it might not be too late to stick a screen in there over the plant.

Get some copper wire and wrap around the main stems and just bend them to LST them wherever you want.

look into LST Low Stress Training, Gently tie some on the tops down

I wouldn't chop anything during flowering.

I would tie her down, to the side or something, thats the simplest, fool proof solution.

Just make sure it doesn't bend too much.

I would tie it down. If you do chop the top colas the plant might stress a bit for a few days.
