Research 'super cropping'. Basically, you break the inside of the stem without actually breaking the outside. Be gentle.. you will hear the inside break. This will stop vertical growth to that branch, and still allow nutrient supply above the break.

Very easy, you just pinch the stem, as you tighten you will "feel" the inside start to crack under your fingers

Dont know what kind of floro light you have but a t5 will keep them short and bushy and very healthy looking.

just top that bitch....no more heat damage and also=more branches and budsites.
 
Depends. If you're still in veg, you could go ahead and top it, but if you're in flower I'd supercrop, that way you aren't cutting off your already budding main cola.
