    Am just curious.

    Basically, I had a re-vegged plant that was potted up to a larger pot but after it got into flower, the plant stayed small. It looked every bit like other people's plants, but everything about it was small, like a bonsai. The biggest leaf was at most 6 cm x 6 cm, growing in soil, in a 6.5 litre pot.

    I don't recall giving it much time vegging in the big pot, so I am guessing that the roots hardly grew hence the entire plant stayed small, despite the bigger pot?

"Roots grow very little when the plants go into flowering...The plants hormones switch from vegetative growth & root production and redirect most of their energy into producing flowers and buds..The plants overall size is proportionate to its root structure size and density...More roots more shoots.
