Wait why you ask that you know sumthin I don't lol?? Are 2 of them gonna get hella tall??
The ones that aren’t topped will have a different growth structure — the top cola will grow taller than the ones where you clipped it, which will be bushier. The height difference may be an issue if you need to keep all your light as the same height.

I topped 3 of them i didn't do anything to 1 is that going to make a bad difference?? The one I didn't top is already short and bushy whereas the other one's are getting taller.
 
I’d mostly be concerned about that one getting a lot taller and forcing the light to be moved too high for the other ones. However, it’s always possible to supercrop the top cola to avoid that.
I'm going to tie down the tall ones tomorrow ☺ I can't afford another light at the moment so only other option without cutting is to tie down n see what happens

Supercropping might be an easier way to take care of it. There is plenty of info about it, but basically supercropping just boils down to bending the stem without breaking it.

It sounds like it would hurt the plant but they virtually shrug it off. Basically I just pinch the stem at the point where I want to limit its height. Then I sort of wiggle it back and forth until it’s malleable, sort of how a paperclip gets easier to bend as its bent back and forth.

The trick is to do it slowly and carefully so only the inner part of the stem is broken while the outer “skin” (xylem and phloem) that transports water and nutrients remains intact.

Once it’s malleable, you just let the cola flop over in the direction you want and it will grow that way. Even if it flops over at a sharply acute angle, the bent stem will eventually straighten itself to grow at a 90 degree angle to the main stem.

It’s actually pretty awesome to watch since it seems like it would hurt the plant but in reality the leaves usually don’t even wilt.
