Should I cut it or redirect it somehow?

Edit:

Apologies for my stupidity everyone I have just rotated the plant as suggested. It's not a shit post, I'll leave this up for the comedy.

    Looking for grow light recommendations? Check out Grow Lights in the [Light and Watering wiki](https://www.reddit.com/r/succulents/wiki/light_and_watering/#wiki_grow_lights). For basic light specs, [check this post out](https://www.reddit.com/r/succulents/comments/7vek8w/lighting_guide_the_basics/?st=JDOSH3NL&sh=bd64930a). Be wary of any “blurple” lights, or halo style as those are generally too weak to sustain high light plants like many succulent plants’ compact and healthy growth.
    If you search the sub, you will find many other threads asking about them as well.

    I’m no expert, but I would turn the pot

    I would simply rotate the plant. I hope this helps!

    Trim that part?
    Don’t they just attract bugs?

    For kicks why don’t you put the lights above the plants in stead of on one side only?

    Have this problem with Haworthia, not Echeveria, but my solution – the flowers aren’t pretty enough to bother with. I just cut ‘em off.

    Have Nidoking hold it away from the light 😎

    Can you renovate your house and move that wall back a few inches? Then you can move the grow light back to avoid the flower.

    If the question is still open and hasn’t been answered yet, please turn the pot so that the buds (flowers) are facing in the opposite direction.

    Replant the light into another area, as the succulents are immovable.

    I love your inquiry and support the question (even though I knew I would turn the pot). There was a comment in a different post about always keeping the pots in the same position so🤷🏼‍♀️. I move plants on and off a windowsill every night, they always get moved.

    Yeah you need to move to a bigger house.

    That plant WANTS THE SUNLIGHT
