Quick! Week 4 of flower suggestions/help!

Hey guys.
So heres my problem. I have 2 dwc buckets with the same strain in the (trainwreck). I let them get a little too tall vegging them a few weeks longer because i took a bunch of clones from them. Theyre growing great after a few nutrient tweaks. But now my problem.. never thought id say it but theyre TOO tall!!

Theyre in end of week 4 of flowering so i think theyre pretty much close to done with their strech. Now i have a great pretty even canopy EXCEPT about 6 or 7 tops that are about 6 inches taller than the rest of the canopy. I had to mount my light literally to the tent bar just to get those taller tops 18 inches away from the light. My question is should i chop the taller tops and grow a completely even cannopy?*(the rest of the plant is almost perfectly even) or should i lst the taller branches, even though im week 4 in flower? Or maybe some supercropping? The tops dont seem to be blocking anything lower than them they just stick up way higher and are way closer to the light.
I feel like if i were to chop the tops then the whole canpoy can get an even ppfd instead of those taller tops getting high ppfd but then the ppfd dropping (more than it should) when it reaches the rest of the conopy.

Also , if i did chop them and make everything even would it HURT anything?

Thankyou for yalls input and ideas.

Looks like you could LST the tall branches then put up a net or trellis and you'll be sitting pretty.

Rather than chopping them off I would supercrop them. If you can use lst to get them even that would be better since they are in flower already, then again only 6” above the others is not much, you could just turn up your light for the main canopy and see how the few taller ones do, they will probably be fine. Chopping them would be my last resort.

They wouldve been perfect under a trellis but unfortunately these two girls are in seperate dwc buckets and would be impossible to res change as i dont have a small enough pump to be able to get into each bucket to empty them before changing. Going with the lsting and supercropping the tallest of the bunch! Thank you!

I knowww!!! It literally breaks my heart when i cut any kind of foliage off our girls! Lmao! I went with a bunch of lsting and supercropping for the tallest of the bunch thank you!
