Out of space, what are my options?

I vegged too long for the SOG grow I was planning in my 2x4 so I topped once to try to limit vertical growth. Now I'm out of lateral space as well and they are now starting week 2 of flower so theyre going to stretch like crazy still. My light is at the top of the tent already. The leaves aren't showing any signs of stress of being too close to the light but I'm worried that the flowers will get bleached. Its a mars hydro tsl2000 300watt. Any ideas? Or am I worrying about nothing?20210129_125906_HDR.jpg20210129_124820_HDR.jpg

Hey man, I am not sure what you can do at this point considering your space. I would think getting closer than 20" will cause you issues in flowering. Bleaching, foxtails and fried lleaves. Are you able to relocate them to someplace with more vertical space?

I have a runoff table they are sitting on that I guess I have to remove that will give me 24" more vertical space. I was hoping to avoid that but oh well. 20210129_132441.jpg

Yes that will help a great deal. If you get a cheap shop vac and keep them on some stands above saucers so they are not sitting on ground you can remove runoff easily.
