I've read somewhere about the Penetration of 400 W and it's around 24 inches at best. the 1000 watters support a 36" plant just fine. If you're gonna make a little prune and you see some tiny bud sites that are smaller than the rest at the bottom of the plant, you could cut them off, because they won't fully mature anyway, it will just send more energy to the other colas.

Since it's an LST experiment then yeah for sure cut off some under growth, unless light is getting there sufficiently. Could always half harvest as well, even with a shorty.
