If you are talking about those single bladed leaves around the colas. That's normal. In my experience reveg leaves usually have that swirling look to them. Like they are signaling for a left turn....lol

While I see some signs of nute burn, as Da Mann points out, it looks over watered and starved for N in some of the pics. Include all the info you can in your reply.

Good Luck :peace:

Are you feeding it? It looks starved. Maybe overwatered. Tell us more.
It might be over watered i doubt it though and ive never used nutes on her this is my first grow so i didnt really have any money left over after i bought lights and so on she is in a 3gal pot with MG superbloom potting soil under 200 watts of cfls all around her . Its been going great till about 2-3 days ago when she started drooping and yellowing idk what it could be and what about the set of 2 leaves growing at the top of the plant ? Am i just too much of a newb to recognize its normal ?

If you do not have access to a good fertilizer you cold use MG patio food. I have seen some people have good results with it.

The stems purple thats a signe of stress, whats causing it is anyone guess

Cold temps at night, overwatering, ( often underwatering will cause this )(unlikely to be nuteburn or under feeding the plants, leaves would be badly burnt or most the fan leave would have gone brown and fell off)

They look stretched, maybe not getting enough light and its stress them, also could be light leak when lights out

Could be one of these, just some ideals to help

That's the lack of nutrition. Pale leaves need N. Red stems, when not genetic, indicate lack of P. You said you have never fed this plant anything. Cobnobuler is correct that you are on the way to harvesting nothing. You might as well start feeding the plant, put it back into a veg lighting state, wait for THAT to sort itself out, then start flowering again in more controlled darkness. It's really very salvageable if you are patient but it's not going to yield anything any time soon.

Jack's Classic 20-20-20 is a good basic fertilizer that you can find in big box store garden centers.

I would agree most of what Shnkrmn said, purple stem could be down to lack of p
But the plants not very big/bushy so would the plant use all the food up? Maybe

Lift the plant out the pot and see if the roots, root bound if not, its not down to lack of p as the roots will suck all the nutes out the soil

Re veg not sure
You not going to pull much that's for sure but its going take weeks to re-veg, 4 weeks plus before you can flower , if you can get more seeds /clones I would start them off somewhere else and in 4-5 weeks they could be ready to flower

Okay guys after reading some more its come down to redoing my grow box and revegging her or just starting about 5-6 seeds .. Which would be a better idea ? I assume its probably 50/50 but if i could reveg my plant for however long it needs COULD i possibly get a nice yield off of her ?

see where the plant stretches 1/3rd of the way up the plant, you have 5 level shoots, cut them just above this, and re veg, when the plants more healthy, pull the shoots down a little but be careful, in 4-5 weeks you could have a few new shoots growing out each top and you plant will be well bushy, could pull 5-10 oz's off her under the right light

seeds depends on the light if you have a 600w hps you would be better to use 6 seeds, as you have a higher chance of pulling a higher crop with more plants

Revegged plants get verrrry branchy. They are great for mothers because you can take many cuttings at once. If you are in a hurry, seeds would probably be faster, but you can certainly get a good crop from this plant if you aren't in a rush.

no that's not how it works!! The nutes don't stay put till the plant decides to use them!!Every time you water you're literally washing away nutrients ... The can easily lock something out ..causing certain nutes in the soil to just wash away because the plant can't use whats in the soil at that point!! leaving the plant stunted and nuteless!

most growers water the plant so there a little run off, ( they don't flush the soil with gallons of water lol)
If you buy good qualty soil it will supply the plant with food for weeks, as the roots use the food up in the soil, the roots will grow quick to find more food, thats how it works

Sounds like you over water the plants and it stunts the growth and make the plant unhealthy
Which is somthing very diffent
