Close internodular spacing and those look like female pre flowers. Good job Joe. It'll recover from the heat stress just get a better exhaust fan and keep an eye on the bottoms browning, you could have a slightly nute sensitive plant.

Looking good, Irish Joe.
Not quite sure those are preflowers. Keep an eye on it and if two hairs come out of the same spot, it's a girl. You may want to trim off the lower leaves since they won't get much light, and to improve air circulation.
Good luck!

Thanks CharlieMopps I hope your right, exhaust fan I dont have one I am not that good at wiring things like that up but I will look into it.
Nice one bigpapa, thanking you too for your support.
tricome, high and
to my journal. I hope these are pre flowers too, I am crap when it comes to uploading pics and I had pics of the white hairs only the pic was to big to upload so I am pretty sure it is a female. It is on my mind to trim the leaves as I was advised to do that earlier but with me I am to scared to pull the leaves off as I dont want to hurt her again. 
Now to ask a general question is an extraction fan an absolute must? I tend just to leave the closet door open to let the heat out also I re potted the plant yesterday, I had it in a 10 inch pot and I was amazed at the amount of roots it had, they were all around the outside. So a little tip for everyone who has there plant in a smallish pot replant it before it gets root bound.
Thanks again for the comments I am grateful for them all so please keep it up thats it for now talk to you all soon
welcome back joe lookin great SHE looks nice, if you can get a small clip on fan and face it toward the door from the back of your closet that should help heat, about the bottom leaves i myself got rid of them but only 3-4 in 1 go, get a razor blade dip in vodka or boiling water for a few mins and cut just under the branch downwards fairly tight to the plant but not too close, you can get die-back if you leave too much of the stem about 3mm should be fine. hope it helps

Oh yeah, just get a small oscilating fan from a mega mart, pretty cheap.

Once again resinator thanks for stopping by, and once again that is some great advice just do you mean to cut the whole branch off and leave about a 3mm stump so to speak?

Charlie I have a little fan it's just that I dont leave it on so much as I leave my closet door open to let the heat escape, knowing this do you still recommend a fan.

resinator I haven't got a clue what the temp is as I dont have a thermometer in the closet or the house I think, can I ask you resinator do you leave your fan on all the time or just for a couple of hours a couple of times a day?

I had my fans wired on the same timer as my lights.

tried messaging you there joe.. cant yet havent enough posts...just lookin for a bit of knowhow first man. gonna be growing as soon as im outta the house and back in college.. its a pity tho id grow now if i could im really bored after losin my job for the summer....
same as that but only recently they are on 24/7 to try and help some humidity issues, think of it this way it would cause your baby more harm to not add the fan than it would if ya did more benifits for having it on unless it has a cooling effect which would only come into play at lights out. you should get a thermometer in woodies €3 for a cheap 1 €15 for a high / low 1 which would be a good 1 for a closet to see just how high and how low your temps sit at
Looking good

to all who have posted since my last reply I am here with a quick up date and a few pics 
Hi everyone 15 days since my last pics, man time flies when your having fun in the sun.
Ok so my plant has just gotten so big that if it grows another 8 inches it will be looking for a new home, it is now 31 inches tall and 27 inches wide . No real problems since my last couple of posts, she even has taken more and more nutes she seems to love em, she is due another watering tomorrow and it will be her first dose of full strenght nutes so fingers crossed.
Now on to the pics, you will notice the flowers on my plant they came out last Thursday and they are just growing and growing they seem to be coming out all over the place on every single node and on the tips of every branch and the main cola is forming nicely IMO .
So here is pic 1
Not a great pic I know and the next is basically the same except with the lights turned off
In the next pic you will see is the flowers forming on the ends of some of the branches
I know that they are not very clear I am using an old camera but the next is a little better they are of the main cola, well it's the top of the plant mouth watering stuff even if I say so myself.
And the next one is basically the same.
The damage that was seen in my last pics is still there, I dont think that it got any worse, I think that it has gotten better. The big fan leaves have picked themself's up off the soil and are now freely holding themself's up so I am glad that I didn't cut them off . I no longer worry about how my plant is doing as I got some great advice from an old stoner and some cracking tips from him aswell.
Well that is it for now dont forget I want your comments good or bad

Ok,sorry if I missed something Joe but you do realize those are male right?

man it sure looks like a male to me. it was my first thought when i saw the pics you should have posted earlier and more frequent, the last pic you can see the sacks at the bottom of the pic male (defo) back to the drawing board dont loose heart though, it was good practice run for the real deal next time you will be more in tune to what a male looks like so you can eliminate them as soon as noticed,
keep it up you will get there soon
