Don't want to butt in but if he was defoliating due to yellowing leaves then shouldn't he increase his nutes?
Thats basically summed up what I did,powdered the nutes so they would be absorbed faster then tweaked the feeding schedule.But by that time every thing but the new tops were clipped

i was assuming the yellowing leaves were burnt looking at the tips of the others,not yellowing due to deficiencies...
Yes I agree the tips are due to burn but the other pics are n def so the plant got burnt at one time but suffered n def for what it sound was a while. Do you agree?

54 days? seems kinda small. What type of light are you using? Also seems like your growing medium is a bit large for that size of plant, I have much better results with keeping the container and plant at similar sizes, develops a more established rootball and prevents overwatering/nutrient lockup
right now its under three 42 watt and three 23 watt cfls.and its in a 2 gallon pot that was filled halfway up but last week I filled it to the rim,this is my first grow so its mainly trial and error.

Provided she heals well, the place where the rip happened will become mental fat and strong stem and you have a perfect Y there. That thing will make an awesome catapult when the grow's finished.

with that much vege time, i'd suggest pinching the stems too, as long as you don't within 14 days of triggering to 12/12 it's a good idea to beefen them up.

it was in veg for 31 days old 12/12 for 24 days.thats why I was so worried about it,I probably should've mentioned that in the first post.

oh CRAP! that's been flowering for 24 days?!
whoa, something ain't right then. Sorry to rain on your parade, you sure there isn't a light-leak?
probably nutrient lock-up from the time-release pellets, I'm sorry man, first grows can be un-forgiving sometime.

Has no light leaks at all,when my plant lights go off my bedroom light goes off and my room gets locked untill its lights on even if i left my room lights on it doesnt have leaks it showed its pistils on day 23 of 12/12,which more than likely had alot to do with the time release nutes still pumping to much nitrogen for flowering

I don't think it's because of too much nitrogen, unless you mean too much nitrogen is causing nutrient lock-up/undissolved salts

you also don't want to transplant after triggering flowering.
Too much food, too much soil, too much attention. That's my opinion

Ive read that to much nitrogen could delay the start of flowering so I was just assuming that might've been why it took so long to show sex
