Throw out one plant?Is it productive to kill one plant if the rest of the plants are filling out the room just fine and to promote ventilation and light penetration? I have one plant that is way shorter and behind the others due to genetic problems.

Plug timer running fast My plug timeris running about 10 fast each 24hr. And is now at about 2 hours past the actual time. This causes the light cycle to shift forward slightly everyday. Should I set it back to the correct time, leave it be or buy a new one? It is plugged vertically in wall socket.
