What's the strain? your lights? I'd say you need more light. Looks a little top heavy I'd stake it if I were you.

Heello, how many watts are you using? You might wanna add abit more light aswell, maybe some side lighting? Also it kinda looks like its bending towards the light... are your cfls covering the whole of your plant or just one side?
What sized container is it growing in?

That could be the problem, MG isnt the best for cannabis growth, ive seen people use it with no problems at all but not to often. Most people i know who has used it have experience problems with it due to its time releasing fertilizers which can burn the plans at earl stages in its life.
I dont have any experience with it myself so im not entirely sure, im just saying some of my buddies have.
And that cinnamon on top is probably why it looks like cake mix lol but yeh good thinking, gnats hate cinnamon so hopefully you wont be getting any problems from them :D

I hear ya on that one, when you transplant switch to John innes #2 or#3 or even just general multi-purpose compost wih like 30% perlite for drainage. It might help, also how old is your plant?
Have you tried LST'ing (Low stress training)? that could help get the baby bottom leaves some light(more light=more grow :D)
