Hi guys. I think my plant is too short. What can effects the plant’s height? I placed my light around 60cm(2ft) from top of the plant.

Too many par measurements from the light spectrum will cause the customer to create shorter nodes and stretch less. In addition, genetics is also an important part. My tip: defoliate and place the lamp higher or dim it a bit.

Looks like you're growing a shorter strain, and you're still in the veg phase. Your plant won't stretch as vigorously until you flip it to flower.

Good evening :) I have a question regarding the size of the plant. My current grow is in the middle of the flowering stage, but the plants are only about 25 cm tall. Is that normal for autoflowers? Or will they get bigger?

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!

The problem with Mary
Germed from very small seed (glares at QC) Mary is on her own feed, propping her up with H2O2 and begun light feeding again at every irrigation. No idea what to do next, did not respond to recharge, and kangaroots did not seem to help so I am down to H2O2

Plants are never taller than 13-15"? Even after adding a 2nd light (in 3g pots in a 3x4)! Tried both topDressing
After growing 5-6 diff strains (all FB and Meph) all my grows top out at maybe 13-15" tall. Are my lights (2x Maxsisun PB2000 pro) holding me back? Or is 3-4 too many? I'm in a 3x4 in 3g- total 430w or so. Added a 2nd light but still growing bushes. 😖 Add another 100w+? THANKS!

Too small at four weeks?
The plant looks relatively small. Leaves look good to me, so I wouldn’t say a lack of nutrients, but I’m no expert. Could be the temperature fluctuations? Or LST gone bad?
