what is this?

[puffpufffpass]

my buddy says the the plant is starting to "dwarf", which is the cause of the funny uneven leaf patterns... what can i do?? and is it too late to cut off the top? ...:wtf:

I'm on my first grow too, and I think I just answered your questions in another thread, but to ensure proper delivery of my responses, I thought I'd refer you to your Couple of Questions thread.

As an aside, my plant is in about the same shape as yours. It began flowering early, ceasing its vegetative growth, so I am left with a short single cola plant. I had intended to fim, top, and/or lst earlier in her development, but just didn't get around to it before she began flowering. However, yesterday, I began lst'ing her so the bottom buds will get more direct sunlight, hoping to increase overall bud development.

As for why she sexed so early and her growth was inhibited, I'm guessing it was a combination of MG soil, therefore some nutrient imbalances, and/or lack of longer direct sunlight, as my house shades sunlight after about 10 hours. I'm really leaning toward nutrient issues from MG soil though, from what I've read on this board.

We live and we learn. Keep reading and keep growing. I'm learning first hand experience is the most beneficial.

Good luck!

i'm no expert but it looks like marijuana to me! there is almost no way to actually pin point what strain you have, a lot of people make names up after they try it out ha ha you can tell by how it grows (bushy not bushy) how much sativa is in it or how much indica is in it. these are the two sub species of MJ
