Need opinions from RIU family

Alright RIU fam. I would like your opinions on what to do next. This is not my first rodeo, actually my third... in 2018. Anyway Im on my 5 run of clones from these genetics Gorilla Glue 4 and Pineapple Express 2. I dont know what I was thinking when I came up with the idea to run them together. Gorilla Glue grows tall and Pineapple Express stays short with these genetics.

Anyway, I cloned them 1-25 potted up 3-4 to 1 gal then transplanted 3-28 to the 3.9 gal autopots using coco and perlite

Turned the autopots on 4-5. Girls have all been topped and are over 3ft tall. What would you guys suggest to keep them from going over 5 ft?

My GG usually doubles in size with long dense colas and PE usually only grows half after switch with fat dense buds.

In a 5x9 tent, 2 600 watt hps. I have 3 1k HPS and 2 1k MH I havnt used.

Questions or opinions? Im open to all. Thanks

Don't grow plants super tall you know are going to stretch like a mf? Super cropping? Scrog? Lst? Fire to burn them down to size when they hit your lights?

Growth has been extremely fast this time around. I did a nice supercrop on them and will see what happens. Thanks

Simple.
Learn to flip them when they reach the point that the stretch will put them at your height limit...

Other then that. Supercrop.

Alternate the strains by size...Glues at one time and the PE's are vegging while the glues bloom..Then vice versa...

I've got a mixed lot w some sativa dom hybrids that got too tall this last run, too-
I put my indica leaning crosses under the middle of the lights and the taller plants around them. Im stretching the taller plants along netting to keep them from stretching into the lights. I am trying not to pull anyone totally away from the light but I am pretty sure that a smaller cola that lost a little light is better than one that grows into the light and gets fried!!

I'm not very happy with how dense a few areas of the tent are this run, and am getting to enjoy the extra difficulty in checking for any signs of problems that is coming along w the extra work of tying down daily...

I look at it as my stupid tax for letting the girls go wild lmao
Good luck!

INcrease night time temps a few degrees above that in lights on.

I've got plenty of guesses, but thought it better to just ask- why?
Does that slow the stretch?

Yes. They do most of their growing at night.
