Should I cut the top off or not.

I have 9 Plants in a SCROG setup. Filled a 2.5x4.5 foot screen with them.

Well I'm about 2 months into 12/12 and vertical growth has finnaly stopped (this is a bagseed mostly pure sativa with a 3month flowering period).

Well one plant has a main cola forming that is like 8 inches higher then everything else. It seems to be getting to much light. the leaves look like they are being bleached, for a lack of a better word.

Should I find a way tie it down or just cut it off. It doesnt look very healthy as it is to close to the light. Its not a heat issue as this is a 600W light aircooled by 440CFM. The lens is cool when you touch it.

I dont want to raise this light up any higher because of the rest of the canopy.


oh and before anyone says "get better genetics" I already have. I have 2 DP white widow, 2 DP Blueberry, and 2 Dinafem Shark Attacks started.

I wouldn't top it. Just leave it the way it is, you aren't gonna get much grow with a month left. I would just recommend trying to tie it down a bit. Next time try lst, in my opinion its the best thing to do for getting the most out of it with little stress possible.
