Well, it looks like it's the sprout leaves, or whatever. They will die off after awhile, it's not usually a big deal if this happens. It just means those first leaves you saw were blocked by the new, bigger, better growth.

yeah..it's normal...if you have little leaves that it started with and they haven't grown, then they are not going to grow anymore..

yeah im confirming what every one else has said. ur gonna have some bottom leaves die from new growth. only way to actually stop that is if u put up some verticle cfl's. but pretty much the larger leaves block the lower and smaller leaves from getting any light to stay alive

well flouro's can be alot closer, like 2 inches from plant. More lights wouldn't hurt either. but certainly move the light down.

You want verticle growth but you dont want it to happen because the plants are streching for the light, short bushy plants is what you want not tall skinny plants.

Well that's up to personal preference or on strain. Do you know the strain or is it bagseed?
You said it was like a month old, so i'm assuming it's about 4 weeks old? Right?
My big bagseed ones are at 7 weeks this sunday, and i'm flowering sunday. If you want to flower now you can because the plant will grow two or even three times bigger in flowering, so time it for your room size so you don't grow too big for what you can handle!!!! Good luck man, and let me know if ya' need anymore help bro'!
