Super short plant
Canna0022started grow question 3 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?

Pheno 2: Doesn't bounce back, not overwatered but shows symptomsPheno 2: Symptoms as if overwatered and over-fertilized (N). First can't possibly be true, second neither. Neatly monitored dry and wet periods. PH dialed in. It still grows. Pheno 1 gets treated completely the same and does fine. Instability or damaged DNA? Any possibly to save?

sehr unterschiedliches WachstumDie Rechte hört nicht auf in die Höhe zu wachsen mehrere Zentimeter täglich! Sie ist mittlerweile über 70 Zentimeter hoch und langsam kann ich die Lampe nicht mehr höher hängen. Die Linke hingegen wächst fast garnicht mehr und sieht auch etwas traurig aus. Beide gleich alt.

What do you guys think?It's my first grow (automatic, 6 weeks old) and compared to other plants, my plant looks a bit small/ridiculous. I give her 24/7 light (I read that on guides) is that maybe too much? What's your impression of her? I use two growlights (one from above and one from the side).

Early flower and plant too small?Multiple questions: Is this the first sign of flower on the picture of D21 from sprouting? Doesn't the plant look to small for it still? How do I promote new node growth? Is watering roughly about 1.5L per week too little for nutrient influx?

Is my plant delayed in growth?Do you think the growth is slow for its age? It's going to its 7th week and it looks pretty small to me (I'm the gf) and this is my first grow and I'm not sure if we could have done something better to make it more bushier and bigger. Any advice?

Why is one plant lagging behind the others in growth?Does anyone have any idea why my plant no. 3 is stagnating in growth?
She had always the same amount of watering and conditions (except different medium) as the other two plants.
Yes, she is younger, but in relation to her age she seems to be developing much more slowly.
