Here are some pics of my crystal; its in some supersoil with some miracle gro pellets. i feed it full strength flora micro, bloom and some big bud every 3-4 days. Now i read up the strain review and it says these average about 190-250cm outdoor, mines at ~60cm (2ft) and its 3 weeks into flowering. Do you think that the growth is stunted? :[ This is my first grow, my blue dream and sour diesel are almost at 3ft and they're 3 weeks into flower also... These plants were started early august. and they're all in 7 gal pots.SNC13340.jpgSNC13338.jpgSNC13342.jpg

well if you just planted them in august then their doing fairly well. If you would have planted them in May or June then they might be at that average height because of a longer veg time

Yeah it looks like it's flowering. And flowering time will be a time of stunted growth. Focus's on the flowers.

If you are running super soil there isn't much need for the extra food especially miracle grow that contains heavy metals which are not fit for food crops(or meds) . For planting so late your plants seem to be doing well. Next crop put them in much much bigger pots.....more root=more fruit

Thanks for the advice =] i would think that the miracle gro pellets were okay because they're made for tomatoes and such, but im mainly using flora now. I've seen people grow big plants with just 5 gals o.o i would think that the 7 gal would be enough, thats why i didnt switch them into a 10gal. What is the limit of the plants growth in a 7 gal and how much bigger would it get in a 10 gal? o.o

Next time, plant your seed at the beggining of the season. Don't know about pot differences but 3 gallons shouldn't make that much of difference, when you plant is more important.

I think i remember reading somewhere that its a good rule of thumb to have a gallon per foot of plant, anyone want to confirm or deny this? obviously most indicas wont make it to 10 feet
