yeah we just let it grow out and it ended up getting pretty tall it has alot of buds on it and some are still very small i think we wont be harvesting till the end of October. the grow is going better then i thought it would we have only been using the aerogarden nutes along with 5 cfl and the aerogarden hood light i belive that it looks goofy because of how we had the lights on it earling in the grow but its are first grow so im more then happy with it
