Are you considering what you will do when you reach a height issue? I have almost the exact same micro going right now starting week 3 of flower that is seriously Lst'd and topped once and im still concerned.. Just throwing that out there!

My plant hasnt grown at all since yesterday morning when I took the last pic I uploaded.. Thought it could be heat stress so I lowered the plant.. that wasnt it, so I thought maybe its N deficiency, so I went out and got some MG liquid houseplant food, put some in my water and gave it to the plant through soil.. Haven't noticed any growth yet..

The bottom two leaves are nearly dead, I heard this happens all the time, but now the first set of fan leaves are starting to yellow..

Someone please help me out...

The plant may need a few days to recover if you just fixed the problem. With heat stress it will probably take two or three days to get better. Good luck, it looks healthy from the last picture.

I thought it was heat stress at first, I moved it down and my temp read 10 degrees less, LOL.. I think i've been taking the temp wrong, and the lights radiating onto it make it more than it really is..

I also havent really nuted at all, so I gave it some 8-7-6 MG liquid, just dab.. Hoping both things help, and it recovers..

WOW!!! I sure hope the stunted growth was due to it showing the preflowers.. I hope I didnt just get a female, that is going to die on me.. That would be sad..

Sorry I cant take a pic of the white hairs, I would if I had a decent camera.. but lemme tell ya, they are there.. Never saw white hairs before, but I have now, and I spotted them quickly.. I hope everything turns out okay...

Also, once I saw the female preflowers, I removed the party cups and put them in a window.. I'm gonna use all 302 watts to flower this lil girl..

My first (lowest) set of fan leaves were dying, turning yellow and brown on the tips, just like the bottom two leaves had done before they died.. so I chopped em off.. Figured I have enough fan leaves on my plant, and maybe it would help it grow a little.. Plant still hasnt grown, I think its been 4 or 5 days of no growth.. I dont get it..

Scratch that, actually, it is growing, at the branches it is growing new branches.. Do I need these branches, if not, what should I do with them..? pull em off or what? I just wanna produce some bud for personal use and as this is my first time, I dont need a bunch.. Let me know..

how big are your pots theyre in???? could be rootbound the lower leaves begin to die once the plant becomes too big for its container the roots will just circle around the bottom couple inches of the soil and itll stop growing

damn.. That may be it.. I'm not sure on the size right now... I dont have any bigger pots, LOL.. I sure hope thats not it.. Does a plant reach a maximum hieght and start making new limbs???

I took some advice and transplanted.. The pot I put it in was so big that it wouldnt fit in my stealth grow spot.. So I had to do some ghetto rigging.. A bunch of light leaks, I know.. but no light gets in my room, so I'm not so worried.. I did notice that the roots werent bound at all though when i took it out of the pot.. I've included some pics, one of the plant, and one of the ghetto grow that I'm now in charge of.. dammit..

Shes growing the two white hairs at every branch, and every branch is growing a new branch.. but theres no more upward growth.. the top two sets of undeveloped leaves are green and purple.. What does this mean? It has been the same size for nearly a week now.. Someone please help me out, or drop some of that knowledge.. I havent found anything bout this in any other threads..

The purple is going away.. Still no upward growth.. Its growing new branches at the branches that are already there.. female flowers are white with brown dots, is that normal? Anyone got anything to recommend? I hope this grow doesnt turn out to be a failure..
