Hey guys I was wondering if any of you could help answer these
questions.

What the proper speed to fly is when passing through lift without
wanting to stop and work it.

You want to go as slowly as possible, to maximize the time you are in
lift.
When trying to land in rough air should i go faster or slower?

Faster. A rule of thumb, set up a speed about a third more than stalling
speed, then add half the wind speed. That way if there is a sudden lull
in the wind you'll still be able to land without problems.

What effect will being underweight have on the control of my glider?

If you mean YOU are underweight, the controls will be a bit more
sensitive. But I suggest you check weight and balance with your
instructor.
Where the strongest lift is under a cloud. Is it towards the top?

Depends.. As so many things in this mad sport. Generally the lift is
easier to work the higher you go. Sometimes the lift is stronger nearer
the sunny side of the cloud, sometimes the shady side.

Where are you intending to fly, George?

Thanks in advance

George
