did you line the whole you dug with a plastic bag...if not maybe the natural dirt is robbing nutrition from the potting soil...

LOL fdd I had the same thing I did 3 clone one in a 12 inch wide by 12 inch deep hole filled with good soil I use for moms water and fed daily.1 of the same clone went in a pot with cfl lighting and 1 in a pot with 4 foot floro lights. The 4 foot floro is now 3 feet tall the cfl is about 2 and the 1 outside in mothernature is now gone it never got bigger then 3 inches after 30 days. So my guess is mother nature needs help.Basically I think the ground soil leeches the nutes from the good soil and if it rains heavy all nute go by by but in a pot they get trapped and the roots are surrounded by the food and water i the ground the roots keep searching depletted dirt as they look for new food sources.My guess anyways

its possible that the one in thr ground once she spreads her roots a little will surpass the other one by the end of the season. i could be very wrong though.

I am not a pot grower, i just think the girls look pretty... and smell good

i really have no answer. we've had 0 rain this whole season. they get heavily fed. the hole is not lined with anything and the native soil is very healthy. i always thought it was more light cycle change than anything. the smaller one is on the west side of the bigger one. the bigger one shadows the smaller one in the afternoon/eve. the bigger one gets more direct sunlight each day. it may be this.

maybe the fluoros gave it a kickstart over the ground plant? seedlings/clones under fluoros do take really well and the outside plant has not had those same growing conditions? either way fdd once again i see those trees you keep growing!!! you are a master.

one went into the ground in the early spring. one went into a pot about 3 weeks later.


maybe you planted it 3 weeks after the other one....

the one in the ground is at least 5 times bigger than the one in the pot.

shouldn't make a difference as to when they flower though. one just had 2 extra weeks of sun while the other was under floros. they were both cut from the mother at the same time. they are the exact same age to the day. they should start to flower outside at the exact same time. the are the exact same plant.
