At least without Direct Intervention from the Miraculous

gone

Correct.

Yes I agree with this, I doubt that we can attribute the growth to a different balance of the atmosphere even in conjunction with daily watering from underneath.

Agreed, not sure what to make of the mist you speak of but that's ok.

There are theories regarding this. Mostly dealing with evolutionary cycles caused by a balance between advantages in size(selective survival advantage) and disadvantage of longer gestation periods(decreased adaptability).

Is it entirely genetic? I have read and I will see if I can find something about climate change effecting the higher and lower latitudes the most. Not sure if that means that CO2 conctrations are higher in these palces or not, though.

Not off-topic at all. The difference in size is most likely a combination of genetic and environmental factors. Note these factors are interelated, as the environment has an effect on genetics and genetics in turn affects reproductive success.
