Space issues any ideas

Ok so I'm at Day 23 flower and day 46 total. I have about 34"H x 39"W x 64"D . The height issue has been resolved, but now I'm starting to see a lot of overlapping with the fan leaves on the other plants and I'm wondering if anyone has any tips for resolving this. I've read some about "lollipoping" but I'm wondering if this late into flower it would just cause stress. Thanks ahead for the help.

Plastic coated paperclips, and garbage bag twist ties.
If you have plastic pots, you can either
poke holes around the rim and shape the clips in S then twist the twist tie loosly around the limb, or stem if you want to bend that too, the other end gets tied to the clip.
You can pretty much move any leaf/limb
to any position you want it.
Another idea is cut a wire coat hanger and bend it into a 3 sided rectangle sort of shape, bend the 2 open ends 90 degrees down and duct tape it to the side of the pot. Then you can just use the twist ties to tie to limb/leaf, and the other end on the hanger.
If you use square pots its a bit easier and the pot can then be tipped on its side (for better light penetration) held up by the coathanger.
This is what i started doing to lessen the bend on the main stem when lsting.
I also use 2 foot t5s for top lighting so helps more top light hit more of the main stem, as well as front and back side lighting.
