This is my first grow, nothing major or anything. I just took some bagseed and put a 2 footer over them and a hang light. I had a male and cut him out. I know she is streached a little, I have no idea what strain this is. I am on 12/12. Been on it since the beginning. I have no idea how far along she is, I dont remember exactly when I started. Next time will write it down.
By the pics can anyone tell if it looks like a known strain and how much taller will she get. She's about 4 foot tall now.

CAN WE SAY STRETCH ????
The plant is suffering from a serious lack of light, if it were me I would cut the mainstem back , maybe go down 4 nodes , and get some good light on it.

when you say cut it back, you mean going down four nodes and completely cut it off?

if you plan on keeping that 2" FLO, you need to get the right bulbs, you are using warm bulbs, you need DAYLIGHT 6500k bulbs, this is why you have mayjor stretching because the warm a.k.a yellow light is for stem elongation, blue light, or daylight bulbs promote foliage growth (more nodes off branches from main stem)

YES!
SCROG is another way to handle it.
