This La Conf plant sat in the window sil the first 2 weeks of its life. Seems to be healthy, growing under T-5 flouro's now.

My ? 5.5 " Tall 13 " wide.. Is this normal ?or, Did I stunt the growth with the whole window sil thing??

att. pics Any feedback will be helpful..

it looks healthy....just needs to be in vegetation stage longer....

how long have you had it vegging? Generally you want to keep it growing about 2-4 weeks (12-16") before you start the flower cycle!

but the leaves look super green and healthy! good luck! :jointsmile:

Thx, plant is 29 days old , only been in the closet under flouro's 2.5 weeks.

Seems like it has a lot of ground to make up . From 5.5" to 14" to 16" in 2 weeks.. planning on flowering at 40 days..

just measured almost 6 " tall 13.5 " wide

Thx again, Merkaba :) short & bushy

Repot! :thumbsup:

Let her dry out a bit. The put her in a larger pot. After a couple days it'll start growing really fast to fill the new soil.

A couple weeks after the repot it'll be MUCh bigger.

Otherwise it looks great! Good job:thumbsup:

Here are two pics of the same plant 10 days apart. first in the old pot, then in the new one.

LA Confidential is a short, squat plant. The ones I have grown look just like what you have. I have six in flower now that range from 6-13 inches in heigth after 50 days. There is supposed to be 2 phenotypes and I have both---the short and the taller one. I veg mine at least 60 days and I have never had one grow over 30 inches indoors.

Sounds like a great plant! What are it's percentages? Like 50/50 indica/sativa type percentages? (personally I like about 50/50, this LOOKs more indica to me)

I NEED a plant that doesn't get to tall, to fast. The one I posted above needs to slow down soon, because it's getting WAY to tall! :D

However I still think that plant is root bound. The pot looks small, and the OP said it isn't growing much anymore. That is exactly how mine worked.

Glad to here its a short and bushy variety, guess I should have known...

Veg for 60 days sounds real good to me as well .. Thx for feedback - Merk :)


I did repot, The roots were wound pretty tight.. Thx for feedback - Merk :)

( they were molded to the shape of the pot )
