Happens often with some of my indica doms. Not sure if it's a residual hormone thing, or perhaps early re-veg stress, but yes..they are worth taking to harvest. One good result is that the internode spacing is minimal, so it's not really wasting energy and resources on stem material, lol. But the buds do get to be full-size and rock-hard.

I've tried extra flushing of the soil, I've raised the lights, I've lengthened the schedule to 20/4, tried adding a little extra nitrogen, and I've tried adding a tad more molasses...but it seems that if they want to stay squat, they're going to stay squat.

DrMota: hmm. I guess I'm still reading it wrong. Are you saying you had them under 12/12 for three weeks, and then tried to re-veg? If so, why didn't you let the plants go till harvest, as you were almost there? Without explination, it didn't sound right.
