Probably not, but that light is flower light and that plant needs veg light.

1000w full spectrum, you sure about that?
They seem to be alive, it seems like they could recover.

Yes That’s what it said on amazon . Lol don’t make me lie bro . This actually my first grow with an actual light .

I find amazon isn't honest about much, I would check the true specs of your light. Its probably on a sticker on the light.
Edit: Regardless, your plants look like they will survive and keep growing.

Bro. It's not a 1000w light, regardless of what the Amazon page said. You probably could have purchased a better light with your money but no changing that now. That light will probably suffice for a first grow.
The big question is why is your plant folded in half? You basically super cropped the entire plant. LST should be done gradual. Good luck
Super cropping is removing the top . It’s just lst right now . The stems are actually still pretty bendable at the moment
I will definitely check . Before I put them outside they were actually pretty good looking but the dry air got the best of them . They’re only maybe 5/6 weeks if that .
So what’s the best led light to purchase , I would do the hid and hps but i don’t need that high ass light bill lol

Its best to do pictures in normal lighting if you can, it helps identify issues easier.
Your light is probably a few hundred watts, it should be enough for a couple plants.

You are killing them. Wait until they grow out some before you staple them to the dirt. Maybe top/FIM them first. Problem is you won’t be able to LST too much because that crappy light won’t penetrate much canopy. Take those stupid things off and let them grow a few nodes. Then train them to grow out flat on a net or something; only the tops are gonna be worth curing anyway. Upgrade your light when you can; it’s actually good for vegging small plants.
No super cropping is pinching in between the nodes and is exactly what you should be doing with those instead of whatever this is. You need to top them first in order to get multiple tops growing. To answer your Q yes you can always recover them if they still in veg phase. If you are looking for a lighting upgrade check out quantum boards or COB leds; blurple panels like this are good for vegging small plants but won’t produce much bud other than just at the tips. Not that you cannot use a cheapo led for bloom phase it’s just that they probably won’t produce anywhere near what you want them to.
When you say pinch between the nodes what do you mean by that ? && by blurple you mean blue and purple panels ?
Ok I will get one soon for you guys . One second

Pinching is topping with your fingers. Blurple is blue and purple.
They will live, I would treat them as young veg plants for now. Richard Drysift is pretty knowledgeable, to say the least, it would be best to take his plant training advice.
I appreciate that bro . I’m going to look into that quantum board light it looks pretty good . I only paid maybe 80 bucks for this one but it works good I just messed up leaving them out to long . I have them on fox farm nutes . So hopefully everything will work out . Probably will veg them for a few months just till they get back right

Did you cut off multiple levels of growth? I count what looks like 6 growth nodes that were stripped along the main growth stem. Doing too much removal of the plant at once, especially at a young age is a major stress and hindrance to the plant's overall growth. Likely why your having issues now.
Also, looks like your pot is only half full of dirt. The entire pla t is below the lip of the pot. You need to allow the plant to grow up to at least the rim of the pot, otherwise your not going to get proper light distribution as the plant starts to fill in.
Also also, they NAME the lights "the mega cool blurple light 1000w" then say its a 1000w equivalent that only actually pulls about 85w from the wall. The cheap no name manufacturers intentionally name their products in this way to mislead people into buying lights that they THINK they are getting a good deal on. Just FYI

Supercropping is not removing the top. It's crushing the stem and bending it down.
