I have a california orange bud plant that is 2 feet and 4 inches tall. It is on a 400W HPS light. It is 1 month and 1 day old and has been in flower for 1 week and 6 days and they also showed their sex today im so happy :allgood: . I think they might be a bit to tall for their age and that they might be stretching. Are they stretching or are they at normal height for their age?
 
During the 1st 3 weeks of the flowering cycle it's not unusual for a plant to more than double in height.
It's called "the stretch" and it happens because the taller a plant is when flowering, the better chance it has of spreading/recieving pollen (MJ pollen is wind-bourne).
After 3 weeks vertical growth stops as the plant's energies go into bud production (females).
