Is this reverting to veg stage?

This just started. It's nutient related, but I can't help wonder, is the sudden stretching due to it's reverting to veg stage? I admit adding a seedling in the room with 16 hrs of light may have triggered this, though the lights are well below the flowering foliage. I'm flushing this for harvest, just used Final finish today.

That has been reveging for at least 3-4 weeks.

This grow has been a disaster. First, I started loosing foliage badly about two weeks after switching to 12/12 lights. I discovered my soil was over 9 pH. A pH chart informed me nutrient uptake was inhibited in alkaline soil. So I started feeding FF Tiger Bloom nutes...by the instructions. But there's a lot of composted cow manure in my grow medium, so nutrient (nitrogen?) toxicity resulted when I started feeding to stop the foliage loss. It stopped the foliage loss, but then this stretching started. I started flushing, though only a small percent of trichomes are cloudy now. Then I discovered I had a whitefly infestation, so I used Neem oil. I flushed it with Flawless Finish today-I'll cut her day after tomorrow. I'm going to rinse it in H202 solution after trimming. Potency should be uneffected, but if it tastes too bad it'll go to edibles.

It is nowhere near ready.

I take chances. But, what's dangerous about that splice? The first wire is ALWAYS taped individually, and if it's important (heavy load), both wires are taped individually before they are taped together.
It's good as a temporary fix, but heat shrink tubing, or wire nuts would be better. Also, solder the joint.

Smoking on what? All I see is leaf and stem.
Leaf and stem? I admit, I have two brown thumbs. Life would not interest me if it didn't challenge me. I probably get half the bulk I should be getting, so I just grow more. I give away everything I grow, to family and friends, except for personal stash. It saves them $. Must be a reaction to the new sense of freedom surrounding pot since it became legal here. And I always grow more than the law allows, as an act of open rebellion for the time I have spent imprisoned for others' ignorance. I think I might enjoy giving it away more than smoking it myself....maybe not though. But I enjoy growing it more than either smoking or sharing it. And experienced advice just might help me green up those thumbs of mine.
