This grow got out of control

I flipped these around 5 weeks and never expected them to grow this tall no idea why but now tips of the central buds are getting bleached. Should I dim the light? Still a few weeks to go obviously.

I have an idea why ... they stretched during flower as do all cannabis plants. But they don't look that bad.

What light are you using? How far above those tops would said light be?

CLW Xtreme 1000. It’s 800w LED. Those tops are now 12 inches away. Quantum flux meter is reading 2000-2240 at the highest tops :eek:

2000 PPFD? If so, that's gonna be an issue

Shouldn't be over 1000 PPFD unless your supplementing CO2

That's what I mean... guess I should dim it 50%...

If you can't raise the light any more, it's better than frying your plants
