So i have veggied the hopefully young ladies for about 5 weeks i finnally got them in 5 gal pots just have some questions about how much i could stand to trim off the bigger of the two. I have taken the liberty of hacking up one of them as a growing experiment but i just want to know how much i should trim off the other plant... she (fingers crossed) is pretty beefy at the bottom and was wondering if the plant may be better suited if i trimmed it before attemping to flower.

Also since im running natural sunshine CFLs, does anyone have an opinion on my lighting for flowering... in my first grow the plants flowered but i grew mini plants seriously less than a foot with flowers. since im ramping it up a bit this time im wondering if i should add more lighting for better bud production? ive found a nice balance with the heat and dont know if its worth messing with though. also i run at a pretty consistant 40% to 45% humidity more toward the 40% range... from what ive read 40% is ok, just looking for some positive reinforcement.

pis 1 and 2 are from 2 weeks old and pics 3 and 4 are from week 5

thank you in advance
