Root Bound?

Will a root bound plant flower quicker than a regular plant in a big pot? And will it be a smaller faster growing plant?
OR will it stunt the growth.

I've also wondered this... I think it's obvious it will stunt the growth, but I think the question is will it grow smaller and slower but flower sooner, or will it just stall before it gets to flowering?

Well, people will use smaller size pots to limit the size that the plant will get to, but I don't think that doing so will actually stall the growth. I'm not sure what you mean by flowering earlier, the plant will begin the flowering process when the light-period switches, but I don't necessarily think that it will complete flowering quicker than a similar-sized plant would. Ultimately I think the size of the pot will just determine how often you have to feed and water.
