slowing down growth?

i have some seeds started that are getting a little bigger than anticipated, while a couple plants are finishing a little slower than expected in the big room.
so these seedlings are started in rockwool cubes sitting in hydroton filled mesh pots, and i put them on a tray under the starter floros and i just keep it filled with a few centemeters of water. i was giving them plain water but they all started to turn yellow, so i gave them the tiniest bit of nutrient solution and they started to grow again and now im out of room to raise the light.

so i just bent them over, but they are still taking up a lot of room, so i was going to


A. top them

B. prune back the roots

C. both

so that i dont have to deal with them for a week or two, while i get the other plants finished and cut. i am leaning towards C just so i know ill have plenty of time.
any other suggestions, thoughts, lay em on me
