This is my first grow since my teen years. This was a bean that sat in my toolbox for a year out of a bag. My questions are , why is this plant this short? And how long does the flowering stage typically takeimage.jpeg image.jpeg image.jpeg image.jpeg image.jpeg image.jpeg image.jpeg image.jpeg

First Love the Screen name!

The answer to both of your questions is in the genetics of the seed. But, the plants size and height are likely being influenced by grow environment.

Flowering time varies for most strains but IMHO average time is 7-10 weeks for autos, indica, and indica dominant strains...up to 13/14 weeks for sativa and sativa dominant genetics.

BTW...

Welcome to RIU, and the wonderful world of cultivating the world's most misunderstood and feared medicines!!!

The only 'advice' I can give you or anyone is to read and learn and then apply what you have read and learned to your garden and you cannot fail. Anyways, remember the search tool is your friend...Lots of folks here willing to help a new farmer get up and growing. But at the end of the day your grow will be only as good as the knowledge and work you put into it.

It is always great to ask questions but do not take anyone's advice or opinions and follow blindly. And remember anyone may have a well-known member status…but that means they have posted and responded to many threads and does not always mean well-educated growerz. Do your own research, you will be much happier knowing you have done it for yourself and by yourself. The first buzz you get from your own budz...is by far the BEST high you will ever have!

Do a search using your current question as the keyword(s) and ZOOOM!! Like Wonka's Great Glass Elevator…off you go to tons of threads answering all your questions. Read all the Newbie Central stickies and learn…

Soaking up all that information and sifting through it, is going to take time. You will likely finish your first grow by then. Viola! grow complete and education well under way.

I've been reading alot that LED blurple light will influence plants to be small and compact. I also have 2 Mars Hydro 300w for 2 plants hybrid, they are in week 8 flower and only 18in tall more or less... it could also be my growing skills that made them small... But still i have seen bigger plants from newbies using CFL or HID lights
