 Does anyone know if I should do anything different?

I have two plants in this space instead of one, because now I'm using two smaller pots.
They're about 8 inches deep give or take.
Should I work on topping them or should I bend them?
They're already grown, so I'm pretty much not going to kill one to make room for the other at this point.
I've never topped or bended before... I only do it to make the plants short and to even the canopy.

Those plants look like the type that don't like to be topped. I'd throw them into flower soon if that's the only flower light you have.

Jeez man they're only two weeks old...usually I wait a couple months. Are indica's less receptive to topping? They're critical mass cbd...
so like another month?
.... I don't know which branches to super crop specifically either or when to start doing it.

Those just have that short-squat look like they want to grow a single cola. a single 100w light is only going to provide so much area coverage and penetration, when its done stretching and filling out you might have too large of a plant if you wait too long. I'd flip them before they got a foot tall.

i agree with phychotron, if thats all you have for a light, flip them soon, as is. dont worry about topping and pinching till you get some better lights. you can get a good quality veg light and flower light for around $300 (american dollar), Ya it sucks to spend that money at first, but your first crop under them, will more than pay for the lights in bud weight. just dont go too cheep on the light, I dont remember the brand names, but I had a $200 budget one time, i needed a T5 veg light and an hps light (i went with a 400watt), I got both lights for about $200 (american) they were both completely shit after less than one year.
you get what you pay for.

that light is actually super dank
it has white lights and u.v. lights in it
as long as you keep it four to six inches away at all times it does the job
i've never even tried growing something above 7 percent thc content, I'm sure I could if I tried though

Half of my DS100's have been reduced to 50% power. The last one worked when I put it in storage but only half power now. 6 years old and 3 of them are still working. They were in use probably at least 5 years and stored a few times, dropped more than a few times. They were the early generation from the first manufacturer that they dropped for quality issues. I'm might get the light boards going again by jumping a wire across the burned out diode to complete the circuit, but I've already salvaged 2 of them for drivers and fans.
Its when you keep it 4-6" away that you realize the plants get too large for just one fixture.
I modeled my first LED light off the XTE series. It still needs work but I upgraded it but haven't posted the updates quite yet.
