Is there some sort of chart, like, if you start getting a full nights sleep every day, how much you can grow?

Like, for girls
Age:13 Can grow: 2-3 more inches
Age:14 Can grow 1-2 more inches

Or something like that

Sorry, there is no such thing (chart related to sleep and growth) because all people grow at a different rate and growth spurts happen at different times for different people. There is no set time for growth spurts just as there is no set amount of growth that will occur during a spurt. Growth spurts can occur until the age of 21 for a boy and until age 18 for a girl.

So, sleeping stops helping the growth of a girl at 18 and a boy at 21. However, keep in mind that sleeping remains important throughout our life. It plays a role in keeping us mentally alert, physically able to function and healthy.
