All seeds have unique genetic codes and are like children, even though they have the same parents, all grow/develop differently. Only clones grow identically.

i wont complain in this stage of grow, everything is possible here. and an automatic plant tends to explode in a certian point of grow, so dont worry

Sometimes you get a grower, sometimes you get a runt. And every variation in between.

Too late to train?
Just discovered this is not an autoflower and I should have topped, stress trained or tried some techniques to reduce height and increase yield. Is it too late now? Should I at least defoliate? Would you recommend I replant in a bigger pot? (dont want it to grow anymore)

Will she be ok
1 and a half weeks into flower this thing is so big it's scary! I don't know what to expect from the stretch. With training though do you guys think she'll be fine?

Too close to the “sun”(light).... any advice?
My plant grew close to 4x it’s original size during her stretch, 10-12” on day one of 12/12 to 46” tall. She’s on day 30 of flower and I set up a second ScrOG net. Other than blocking light to shorter plants, do you see any other potential problems this second net might cause?

My plant is to tall!
Hello Growers! The size of my Fat Banana Automatic is getting out of hand. I didnt expect it to grow that big. It is in Week 6 now and its about 80cm tall + the size of the pot. Can i still take measures to keep the size down a little bit? Or is it to late? Thanks for your help.

What could cause a Gelato to grow only popcorn buds?
This is, luckily, not my plant but the sister of my Gelato Auto which for a long time did not want to grow. The pictured one did, but ver strangely: Thin, weak, extremely long branches carrying a multitude of popcorn buds. Grower is experienced. Any ideas about the cause?

Stretch to the light
How can you tell if your light is to close or to far? Is this gal stretching to much? Should I have increased the dimmer and/or lowered the light earlier?

Long and Spindly girl
Bubbles is stretching quite far. Long and spindly. This isn't good as she can't hold her head up anymore. I've lowered the grow light and also have the light going 19 on and 5 off for the grow day. What can I do to help her out at this point?
