How important is nutrition during your growth? If you were malnourished, how much would it affect your final height or is it all just genetics?
 
All genetics boyo, except if your were extremely malnourished then yes it would have an impact .

Yh, all my growth I have been on the edge of the BMI like 18.8 so borderline underweight but I don’t think it affected my height. Parents are 6’6 and 5’7 and I’m 6’2 at 17. Hopefully some growth left

You could have been way taller , if you have some growth left you can reach 6’3-6’4
 
Yeah, how can you tell if you have growth left tho? Ig it has to do when you hit puberty etc?
Idk. Go get a X-ray if your plates are open or nah , even so you have a rlly good height at 6’2 so no need to complain. Do you feel short or tall when you go outside ?

I live in Sweden, avg height here is like 6ft so no, I don’t feel specifically tall. Many friends are 6’3+ and it’s genuinely common here. But I feel just a slight above average when I go out
