Wow, your pics are a trip! I sitting here looking and looking, and looking... Sorry, a bit hazy right now.... *) Your plants look gorgeous! I think I understand your situation. It looks to me that you are growing in a limited space. I would imagine that's why you cut the lady in two. I'm guessing that because the burn damage seems to be the worst at the top. Did it get damaged after you cut it in two? If that's what happened the poor thing must have gotten a tad too close to the bulb and burned the two leaves like that. It's not a chemical looking burn. If you are experiencing problems due to limited space you might have better luck next time by LST or low stress training - drill holes in the rim of the pots and begin training them to grow in different directions. Be careful to do it slowly over weeks time so you don't stress the plant out each time it's tied in a new direction.I hope I was helpful....
 
mmh strange because there has been another plant all along and it was quite taller, dunno. but now the burns have spread a bit and look like a bleeched soft/thin leaf! another branche snapped at the base but is still attached, tied a cord around it to merge, have been pulling too toughly. the one behinds i chopped her down leaving the first 3 nodes with leafs and only the bottom shoot, trying to raise a bonsai! any experiences??

Try this on the plant that broke: Keep a jar of honey in your grow room to use on broken plants. Honey is a natrual preservative and acts as a liquid bandaide. With a jar in your room you can get it on the plant faster which helps the plant in that it doen't get as stressed out. I'm not hazy yet, guess it's time to medicate!!!!!!!!!!!!

And dnt put honey on ur plant just tie it back up with twist ties or rope it will seal itself . If it gets droopy just give it water thru foliar feeding will perk back up
 
after a day the branch is still healthy although half of its base is snapped: the string is already starting to cut into the branch so i will remove as soon as possible, hope in a few days.
