Do you think it was the grow lights or temperatures that have kick started it.

Hi Mush
Thanks for asking ....photos are kinda before and after and middle.
This is a pup from the plant you had commented a few years back
Pup was in a basement in front of a south facing window temp was 55-65
and whatever light it could get from the low horizon sun.
Windows did ice up with the sub zero outdoor temps we had for a few weeks.
Plant did not do much on top...but those roots were probably going nuts in the soilless mix.
Now
Constant temps 70+ degrees up to 81 in the grow area.
Change in temperature did it for this plant.
I think the lights helped once the leaves pushed .
I must mention the new leaves were in the pstem but had not pushed yet until the temperature had changed.
Pstem was dried and tight......averted a choke possibly.
So it was a matter of time before the leaves pushed....I think
The plant (parent) for me so far is a beast, grows well and has great thick leaves.
Parent plant is in a 18 gal container under cfl's and is Hangry.
The plant has a big footprint and the foliage is awesome.....no flowers yet.
