The "other" plants

I have a group of plants I have labeled as "other" for various reasons but mostly due to unforeseen disruptions in their natural development, stunted growth, insect attacks and occurrences of that nature. One plant in particular has been vegging indoors and out for almost two years (growing only 50cm tall) without ever even showing any sexual traits and has just now begun to produce buds. My question is does stressing the environmental conditions help produce positive traits in the plants or are plants like this less likely to produce something good?

Don't really know the answer to your question! But here's my $.02 worth.

After two years - this plant is either pissed-off or horny! LOL! I think what you have done is just activated the autoflowering mechanism that is inherant in cannabis. It may be more dominant in some strains and more recessive in others - but it is part of the plants' natural make up. Perhaps what has happened, is that after two years a "recessive autoflowering strain" has just reached it's breaking point! This is just a guess - but "that's my story and I'm stickin' to it!".

The only problem, I can think of, with this explaination would be "Mother Plants" that stay in veg for a longer period of time (I've never kept one for over two years). But still, like I said, The autoflowering trait is more dominant in some stains and more recessive in others.

Pissed off or horny? The plant has fat three-bladed leaves (something common in my garden) If anything I'd have guessed it was retarded.

you need to brush up on your growing skills buddy! If I was vegging a plant for two years that thing would be huge!

Hey, its not me, its the plant. All the others from the same batch grew fine under the same conditions and were smoked quite some time ago. Usually I toss unproductive or puny plants but after paying $10 a seed I was not about to turn my back on such an investment. This thing grew about as fast as the nail on my baby toe.

try adjusting your PH. Like dude said two years?????? WTF? why would you keep this anomaly alive? why didn't you at least try to bud it??
try some Ph down, the plant should respond immediately, either that or you have some fert issues. what was the question again?
oh yeah "My question is does stressing the environmental conditions help produce positive traits in the plants or are plants like this less likely to produce something good?"

The answer is NO. genes are genes are genes. This sound like a case of douch bagedness. LOL if this one is in such bad shape, how do your "other" plants look??
Put the thing out of it's misery and start over, consider your $10 a loss and move on. Read ASK ED.

P.S. don't suck anymore
