Not that I'm the most experienced grower but I've never seen a plant look like that.

the older leaves are starting to yellow....... does this mean its not getting too much nutes or too much?

you're not doing too terribly bad - read read read the shit out of the FAQ's and pay attention to the posts from more experienced growers - that is gonna be one bushy bitch - i've got a feeling once you figure out the right nute/ph combo that works for your setup, this little plant might surprise the shit out of you and grow into a hell of a nice ass plant. good luck! =o)

man raise the lights a little and u got the wrong light too need u some standard cfls like cool light and warm light ya know a grow buld and stanard bulb just raise the lights so the plant will have to strech out to get to the light just looking at yer pics the light looks to close the bigger leaves are all nice and tight together so the light issue is probaly gonna fix it

Lights are too close. You can see there are milimeters between the leaf sets. It shows the light is too close, it should be a little further to make the plant stretch.
Also it's the time for 18/6 light period.
Try these 2, it'll stretch.

alright its been almost five weeks so here are some new pictures..... i learned ALLOT this week about my plant and i fixed all the problems...... i fixed the ph and started adding nutes again.... also it wasn't growing because it wasn't getting enough water.. i was paranoid about over watering and it turns out i was not giving it enough...... now i water the plant 2-3 times a day i give its 1-1.5L a day and it really seems to like it..... lesson learned its better to risk over watering then not watering enough..... the plant has almost doubled in size since last week and now she is 6" tall..... i plan on vegging for another two to three weeks till she gets about 1' tall.....so here *she* is
p.s. i tried to over water the plant to see if i could do it, and i flooded the pot....... nothing happened she really seems to like ALLOT of water.......the leaves that were yellow have totally recovered and she is very healthy........

Hey,
One of my plants is the same age(2wks 3 days) as yours and stunted. We have the same pots ,except you have more CFLs, mine has stunted as well. I guess I'll try this out as well.
