Ethos Mandarin Cookies V2 - very stretchy

So I went on a trip and left feeding instructions for a friend who was taking care of the plants while I was gone. They went into 12/12 a week before my trip. They were topped about 10 days before 12/12. When I returned I was surprised at how much they stretched. They look healthy, but huge. I'll probably lollipop sometime this week as the stretch seems to be over. They are under a Timber Vero Cob 400 watt, plus a pair of Platinum P300 LEDs with only the bloom function engaged. The Timber is dimmed to about 75%. If I turn everything up full the leaves show signs of heat and light damage. So far so good on that front. I am using Humboldt's Secret Starter Kit.

I guess my question is..besides doing some lollipopping, is there anything else I should look at?

You could always super crop to even out the canopy.

I'm still giving the plants nutrients each time I water. There seems to be conflicting info on this. Feed nutes up until harvest? or water only for the last 10 days?

What say ye?

Dark, shiny leaves tells me a abundance of nitrogen, probably what’s slowing the maturing process as well.

Id go with just water at this point personally
I agree that they look greener than they should. I've been following the Humboldts Secret feeding chart. Base A has the higher N content. I'll probably forgo it at this point.

Those colors though!!! Nice looking strain!! Did you end up flushing or nah? I don’t ever flush myself but I know everyone is different and I’m not trying to sway anyone one way or the other
