Super short plant
Canna0022started grow question 2 years ago
We’re trying our first grow with no nutrients and we’re a little over half way through the grow cycle for the Cream Caramel. The average size is 40cm but ours is still sitting at 9cm. There’s a lot of flowering action but it’s still not gaining any height. What could be wrong?

I am an organic grower. What I've learn from growing in recycled living soil is, you can only watch for signs of deficiencies and correct them as they show... It never affected my yields.
******
Therefor, I have to disagree with everyone here. Nutrient only *support* the growth. When talking about nutrients, I mean micro and macro like N, P, K, Cal, Mag, S, Fe, molybdenum, manganese, and all the others. Not talking about natural (or synthetic) plants hormones, or the controversial PGR.
Your plants are super healthy mate. No deficiencies = No need to feed. Period.
There is a ton of reason why this plant is a dwarf beside pointing that no food was added, because, again, this plant have 0 signs of deficiencies.
Reasons for a runt plant include bad phenotype, bad genetic, stunt growth caused by off the chart VPD, wrong light and or light distance, soil temps, underwaterd container that did not promote enough space for root expansion and others that I might don't know and or don't think about.

No food = no grow.
Too late now, she is flowering and nothing you can do will make it grow any taller.
Welcome to the disappointing reality that autos can be.......
If you want good yields, stick with photoperiod plants.

Northern Lights Auto, quite short and bushy, fan leaves shielding light - should I defoliate?First time grower with a quite short Northern Lights Auto in week 6. The fan leaves seem to shield a lot of light from the inner leaves, also touching ground. Should I trim the fan leaves? Or should I keep them, since it already seems stressed enough for it's short life…

Dark leaves and short/compact plant18 days from seedling. Dark and a bit rumpled/twisted leaves. Branches are coming out but they don't have much space to breathe from the big leaves. Started topping with some chicken manure pellets, too much nitrogen? Also, the 36W LED lamp is only 20 cm away.

What happens to my autos ? Too much fertilizer ? Nutrient block ?First week I tried the devil and fertilized my autos as little as possible, knowing it was useless... Big mistake.
After that I could see signs of too much fertilizer, i.e. pointed leaves and since then, slow growth with very small leaves. What has happened?
Photo at 5 weeks.

Induce stretch in a short plant.After much research, I couldn't find anything on how to properly handle a really short plant. Does anyone have a thought about this? Or how to induce extra stretch? This is for documentation and research for this particular grow situation. Please see week 5 entries. Thanks all!Week 5

No change in growth. Shall I get rid ?I've given them 3 days under raised humidity and I haven't noticed a change at all. I just don't feel they are worth my time anymore, something is not right and I don't know what. They should start flowering soon and it's nowhere near ready to, it's tiny. Anyone else agree ?Week 3

Why didn't my plant stretch?Why is my Wedding Glue Auto so short? She's healthy as can be. The issue here is that she is in day 30 with zero signs of upward growth and only 5.5" tall. Can I fix this somehow? Huge leaves though. Any and all help would be greatly appreciated.
Look at the diary to see.
