Hey there, that is a nice question, as far as height is concerned we need to look at few chemicals which we call as Plant hormones or PGR(Plant growth hormones)
Auxin is one of them which works on the tips of plant and causes the increase in height of the plant and is dominant over other hormones which is known as apical dominance
In order to keep the height constant one should regularly trim the tip/apical region which would cause increase in girth, this method is usually used by garderners to make, let's say grass to be thick and give carpet appearance.
Thanks and if you do like the answer mark me as brainliest.
