Flowering stretch question

I have 4 plants about 2 weeks from harvest and another 3 a few weeks behind.
The first 4 plants all stretched rapidly for the first 3 weeks of flower and have been carrying on with little to no problems and are still stretching a little, of the other 3 plants 1 did the same and has ended up the tallest of the 7. The other 2 plants had a bit of supercropping done to keep them away from the light in the veg cabinet, they didn't really stretch much for the first 2.5 weeks or so, but in the past 2 days have been stretching pretty generously. Should I expect them to keep stretching at this new rate for a while or are they probably about the height that they will reach? They are both much shorter and bushier than the other plant that was flipped at the same time.
This is my first grow so if it seems like a stupid question I still appreciate any input.
cheers
 
No way of knowing....without growing them once.
Yeah fair enough, I think it is likely the super cropping that has led to them being so much shorter anyway, Promoting horizontal growth over vertical? Heres hoping they still get a bit taller and catch up to the others though lol

are they all the same strain?
I would also post up before you harvest as I'm thinking none of those look 2 weeks out, but it could just be the angle.
From my experience super cropping does promote lateral growth, once in stretch mode it will still stretch vertically( which is why people bend and tuck as this happens for a nice level canopy).

Those ones are only at about week 3 of flower, didn't include my other 4 u can see them in the back of 1 pic though lol, and as for strains I think those 3 are all the same. but I did get labels mixed up at seedling stage and just gave up, so waiting to try and ID properly when done lol.

These are my other 4 with about 2-3 weeks to go

Hey instead of those flat spike name markers try using a fuzzy pipe cleaner with a tag tied on it to wrap around loosely on branch that way it won’t ever get lost or removed. Works for me specially when u have 40 going

Good shout ill keep that in mind for next time mate
 
The ones that were supercropped might continue to stretch a bit more, but they'll likely start focusing more on bud development soon. Keep an eye on their height and adjust your setup as needed to maintain an even canopy.

Yeah they are filling out at about the same rate as the one that ended up the tallest of the 7, hoping they gain at least a little more height though lol
