Yup. And as an average it may grow twice as tall. But we need some info. What is it? How old? What medium and lights? Environmental conditions.
And how you grew it til now will have much to do with the results.

ok well first off its a strain from delicious seeds called dark purple the medium is a potting soil pro mix and I'm using a combo led full spectrum and CFL age mabe almost 2 months and I have her in a grow tent at 20 to 4 ummm also I realized that it had a low ph mabe like 5 (no exact because I did a do it your self home test ) so that's why the spotting it was low on calcium so I added lime and I think that's why it's still so small because the soil wasent right for the fist little bit . is there anything eles I should do ? and from this stage tipaclly how long untill (estimate) it ready to harvest? thanks!

Ok so theres a calcium deficiency. Ya shes flowering. It could grow buds five inches wide and a foot long. If you start feeding it better.
What are you feeding it? Promix has no food in it, so you have to feed it small.. ..doses, of food all the time, and calmag. Dont worry about ph, just feed it right.

what food do you suggest and how much? and should I do the calmag even if I put in the lime already?

In promix i run calmag after a few weeks. With soiless grows ill mix a batch of full synthetic feed in a rez @ ppms that are corresponding with the plant size. Soiless grows are like a passive hydro in a way. Its drain to waste that needs constant feed. Just keep scooping out of the rez and dont worry about adding straight water ever. Make sure you have a ppm meter and dont over feed. Ppm meters use the base ppm of your water, which is usually between 100-200 ppms, and then food on top of that...+ a calmag supplement, all under the target ppms. So a plant like that looks like it would need around a 350-450 ppms. So not much food, but all the time. If it was healthier it could take more. Lots of people think soiless is like potting soil, packed full of food and all you need is water for months, but it acts like a water grow where it needs feed to flower. If you have another seed or two, plant it, get em goin now, because that plant is not going to make you a bag.

It's in flower. Do you recall when? If so mark that date down and you'll know when it w finish. If that's dust on the leaves...Better clean it. If it's "light herb spots" ...It wants nutes or more light. You know it's a hybrid mostly indica right? Better to follow "indica temps, humidity and feedings".

I think the fact that it's even alive after 2 months in pro mix with no food is amazing... for reference here is an auto I grew a couple years ago when she was about 40 days from sprout.. autos start really slow and then explode with growth if you do it right..
