ok thx but one thing that did catch my attention was that earlier b4 i cut the tops the plant leaves were sticking up and after i topped them they kinda went droopy but still look healthy is this supposed to be normal after topping to me it looks like they will recover again but idk let me know what u think

Yea its fine man, there just a lil stressed out, i mean you just beheaded them haha, give em a week or less to recover, then you will notice the under growth shoot up with a whole bunch of tops

oh ok currently i have 4 cfl's and the ag lights is that good so far and how long should i keep the lights on its only in the veg state cuz purpdaddy was telling me to go 24/7 and other places it tells me 18/6 so idk which one to follow...which one would give me more yield???

well vegging just grows the plant out, 18/6 is the regular cycle, 24/0 is just another option people use, it all varys on yeild, depeonds on ow the plants grow, i mena obviously, the bigger the plant is, the better yeild, its all depending on node spacing, and stuff like that, you can have a 6 foot stretch plant, that wont produce shit, but you can have a 2 foot plants, bushy as hell, and pull off some great numbers
