hi everyone,

hope all your grows are going well...

looks like the weather hear is finally cooling down a bit, thank god, the recent heatwave in my area was bad!

anyone got any ideas in slowing down growth? ive got six plants in veg and limited space, one plant is growing much fater than its siblings, and there is one "runt" of the litter, which is catching up fast due to me re-positioning it from day to day.
is there any way i can put the biig one into "stasis" for a week or so while the others catch up, without risking it trying to strech/stressing it too much?

thing is i assume the end result will be better if all six are the same size, instead of one dominating the space/light??? or should i just let nature take its course...survival of the fittest and all that?

ideas?

My first thought is...why would one want to stunt the growth of an otherwise healthy plant?

My second thought is...why would one want to stunt the growth of an otherwise healthy plant?

Space being a concern...either learn how to bend the plant to conform to the available space...or make the space bigger. Uniform growth from seed is not likely to occur unless the grower denies nutrient feeding (water only, no nutes)to individual plants while offering it to those they want to 'catch up'.

Which leads me back to...why would anyone want to stunt the growth of an otherwise healthy plant?

"learn how to bend the plant to conform to the available space...or make the space bigger"

there is no scope for lateral growth as the room is like 70 cm2.

i guess thats a no then lol
