To stop a plant's vertical growth, you can prune the top of the plant to encourage lateral growth, apply a low-nitrogen fertilizer to slow down growth, or use plant training techniques like topping, pinching, or bending the plant to redirect growth horizontally.
Lack of sunlight
a plant has a growth pattern called open growth.throughout life, the plant adds new organs such as branches,leaver and roots enlarging from the tips of roots and shoots but the rate of growth is not uniform throghout the plant body. at the beginning, the growth is slow but gradually it becomes rapid attains a maximum then slows down and finally stops.
The plants will have a delayed growth or not grow at all. I did an experiment with this and two of the plants with ash grew at a slow rate and one didn't grow at all. The ash absorbs the water that if supposed to go into the plant's soil.
Symptoms of potassium deficiency in plants include yellow leaves with brown spots, weak stems, slow growth, and reduced flower and fruit production. Potassium is essential for many plant processes such as water uptake, photosynthesis, and nutrient transport, so its deficiency can have widespread negative effects on plant health.
Slow down growth
it can slow the growth because the chemical oxides slow down and so does the growth process roots manipulate and cause rootal cancer
slows cell growth
slow cell growth
Cause it's cold outside
nitrogen helps to make protein, which is important for growth. if a plant won't get nitrogen, it's growth will be slow and it will have small pale leaves :)
Insufficient fertilizer in plants can cause deficiency symptoms and slow plant growth. Excess fertilizer, meanwhile, can lead to salinity problems.

Simply a slow learner
Nitrogen sticks benefit plants by providing a slow-release source of nitrogen, which is essential for plant growth. This promotes healthy foliage, strong root development, and overall plant growth.
A slow water feeder for plants can help maintain optimal hydration levels by providing a consistent and controlled supply of water to the roots. This prevents overwatering or underwatering, which can both negatively impact plant growth. The slow release of water allows the roots to absorb moisture gradually, promoting healthy growth and development.
First off, if the temperature rises two high, one of two things can happen. First, the plant could lose growth potential as ground water is evaporated, and second, the plant's water could be evaporated and the plant would wither and eventually die. In contrast, if the temperature falls too low, the plant will slow growth, since the water's intake is constrained. And if the temperature falls even lower, the water will stop its intake, thereby decimating the intake of nutrients, causing the plant to die.
