Identification: what to do?
Awesome man.LetsSeeYa I did read you thread about re potting i was going to do so this week, Do you have any links or info where i can learn how to top the plant? I don't want to ruin her by cutting the wrong stuff.
As far as soil i am using some home depot brand,I don't really remember.
So let me get this straight,pertile is basically some sort of gravel that holds moisture and this pertile should be at the bottom of the pot for drainage and air?

It's simple... If you want to top it, get a pair of scissors, follow the main stem all the way to the top, choose a spot down a couple leaf nodes down from the top, and cut it off, just snip the main stem right off. Pretty much impossible to do it wrong. Just don't go too far down. 2 or 3 leaf nodes down will be good, it will bush right up for you.
Can you tell its sex yet?

You want to mix the soil with about 25% to soil in the pot. You mix the perlite with your soil, then use the mix to re pot your plant. Iv read that the dust is unhealthy so run water through it or ware a mask so ya dont breath the dust in. When i got mine from the nursery, they had washed it by just running water through it. Its safe just dont stick your head in the bag or anything like that and its not going to hurt your plant.
I ask about the pre ferted soil because its growing like crazy and topped or fimmed is a good idea. If not it will grow at least 5-6'. I will look around for a pic, but ya need to put ''topping'' in the search and there will be a ton of threads on how to top or fim. You just cut the very top off, but only the very new growth. You really cant mess this up as it ya cut your plant in half its still going to grow, but lets not do that.:wtf: You might catch a you tube video as i know there is one, but like i said, just cut the top new growth.

Yeah the soil i used from home depot said that it feeds plants for up to 3 months and it does have the little white foam pebbles I think i am in my 3rd month now.I did put in two sticks of miracle grow about two weeks ago..(bad idea i see) So should i get the same soil or go with the soil and pertile mentioned above?

Just go with the soil you're using. Don't add any more ferts just yet. Add some extra perlite, because perlite promotes drainage, and drainage is good.

Ok fellas I repotted today.When i pulled the old pot of the plant the dirt stood intact,I noticed that the outer part of the soil was covered with roots so i am assuming the plant needed a bigger pot for sure. here is a picture for her in her new pot. But over night about a 1/4 of the plant got yellow (bottom area) and this got me a bit concerned. Hopefully this repotting will bring her back.
sorry for the side ways picture, I am the worst photographer ever.
