Can you root bound to hasten maturity? - Page 2 - Auto Flowering - International Cannagraphic Magazine Forums

I think a variety of stressors can hasten ripening/maturity, but I also think none or few of them are positive, really. They all stand to take a toll on the product, in my opinion.

Someone said not to stress them.
But I have to test 'em.
I'm relentless
Ready for the diss
These plants grow
and they know
I will get high
Watch a documentary featuring Bill Nye
My eyes look like an egg bake, with red peppers
The THC hits my brain and for godness sake!
I will give some to the members
Free seed giveway
As big as a dime
I can't give away all the secrets because I am a mime.
Big seeds, big seedlings, natural law and adjustment never feeding until a few sets of leaves
This hash got my lungs all full of heaves
I'm using cold
So the plant will know it's
Old enough
Now calyxes swell
What's the smell?
Berry scent ringing your bell
Opposite of hell
I'm high as fuck
can't you tell?

Amanda, you are sooooo right! Or stunting them beyond belief. Of course, the poster doesn't try it out for himself....otherwise he'd know.

To the OP, have you ever grown a plant to harvest before?

NeDank · 10-24-2017, 09:29 PM

I would say yes from experience. Currently I'm growing 2 00 seeds Northern Lights in 10" pots. They both started flowering around 1 month old and are about 2' tall @ 6 weeks old. However on the other side of things I've seen outdoor grow journals where the same strain grew 3-4' tall @ harvest and took over 100 days to finish. There is no way my plants will grow that big or take that long.
