because you don't know your soil's PH, you my have ph issues. 5.8 going in on a soil grow sounds low to me, and if you don't know the ph of your runoff, you could have a very low ph in the soil, it happens. That's the only reason I can think of for a healthy looking plant to be stunted like that, but I'm certainly no expert. Also, was it exposed to that cold snap you had? that can stunt them also. But think of it this way, she looks very nice and will likely give you some very nice bud, so enjoy her, no matter the volume you get!

Im using pure Coco to grow in. As far as I know 5.8 is right where it should be for CoCo...usually get a 6.0 run off from this. Im not sure about the cold, I brought her inside before she was exposed to the cold weather for those couple days. The only other thing i can really think of is that the CoCo is being reused from a previous grow and maybe the Nutes didnt get flushed out all the way...that being said, i flushed that CoCo at least 8 times with 5.8 PH water be fore reusing it. Ill try fresh Coco this next go around and see what happens
