here's a question: i noticed today some reddish streaking on certain parts of the plant. here's one of the 'branches' that it is on
is this normal or an indicator of trouble brewing?
and an overview of the plant today:

are you feeding your plants anything? Your leaf tips are being burned, that's usually a sign of overfeeding. Reddish/purplish streaking is common, although in certain cases this can be a sign of a problem. In your case it shouldn't be anything bad.

the burnt tips are from when the entire plant was yellow (check out the first photos i posted of this plant). for some reason teh leaves went back to green but the very tips are still yellow. i have yet to feed the plant anything other than water. the soil is just mgmc with some verm and a little sphagnum.

photo update! i think i watered it a little too much this time (although not too early) as the leaves are slumping over a little now about an hour after i watered. also i think i'm definitely seeing female preflowers...maybe?

Nice work bro! You really kicked ass and turned that nearly dead baby into a bushy beauty! Really looks healthy and congrats on the female! I just brought 2 ladies to the table myself, hoping to keep up the luck with NO MALES!!! My 2 largest so far are the females. 
Hope that shit gets you baked someday soon, I can't wait for harvest time...Only 3 more months

not yet, but your nodes are alternating. Keep an eye out man, they'll show up.

so if they aren't preflowers, what are those little spike looking bits at the nodes in the 3rd picture down on my last photo post? they cant be tiny leaves since leaves wouldnt grow out of a spot like that. i'm a noob so i don't have a clue what they are

If you look closely on the left side of the node there is a hair coming out with the skinny pear shaped calyx. It looks identical to the one I just spotted on 2 of mine! Look at it in my picture it looks the same...
BTW this is mine here \/\/\/\/

no pictures yet but a verbal update:
i took 4 cuttings and ahve them (hopefully) rooting in 1" rockwool cubes, one of those was the top, and if my research is correct, cutting the very top top down to the next node will end up giving me a bushier mother as well, yes?

Yes that is called Topping and it will give you two growth tops instead of only one, doubling the amount of branches on the plant and giving you more smaller buds than one huge cola
I just topped this one a couple weeks ago

the clones are rooting! i pulled one out of its rockwool cube carefully, AND THERE WERE ROOTS.
and on top of that, all i did was cut them off, and put them in rockwool. straight up tap water and nothing else. no rooting hormone or anything! 
i also tied down teh 4 growth tops that are going since i topped the mother plant, and the thing has a pretty good canopy going. this picture sucks bigtime, but here we go
and yes, in the upper left thats a seedling. i started it from a bagseed my friend got, and hopefully since i have my hands on it from day 1, it will grow even better than my first adopted plant!
question of the day: i have the 4 super silver clones that i took from that main plant rooting in rockwool, but i discovered i can pull them out right now without damaging the young roots. i have a 2'x2' ebb-flow hydro system laying around as well. do i keep those clones in rockwool and grow them out as hydroponic, or put them into soil? the bag seed and the adopted plant are both in soil already, so i dunno what i should do.

well, technically you can do both. If you want to get your feet wet in different areas of cultivation, go for both methods if you have room and patience for it. If you want to focus on a specific area of cultivation, choose one method and go with that.
It's really all up to you, and what you want to do. Keep in mind that you will have to be nutrients that can work in a hydro system if you go that way, that is a requirement, not an option.

pictures tomorrow when i get around to it.
the 4 clones are rooted up, and i plugged them into 6" rockwool cubes and set up the hydro system with 1/4 cup advanced nutrients grow/micro/bloom (1/4 cup of each) for 15 gallons of water. mixed up a soil mix and put the one seedling in a bigass (to me) pot of the new lovely soil. one 23w CFL is sitting right above the clones, and the other is right above the young'un in soil. i gotta go buy more sockets / cords / CFLs tomorrow. i hung up my 400w hps and turned it on for all of an hour but temps were skyrocketing even with a 20" box fan running. i think im going to have to go all CFL on this grow, i just dont have a way to be constantly moving air in and out of there... :-( anyone got advice on that? i'm thinking i'm gonna go with probably a 23w 6500k CFL for each of the clones and the seedling, and 2 or 3 for the big plant.....
