Ok, at this point I'm truly stumped. I've searched the forums under a variety of terms and haven't found any answer. At the moment I'm playing stock BTS, as the Greeks, the game year is 1804, and I can't get my captial, Athens, with a current population of 7, to grow any more. 
At this point, these are the facts:
-I am producing 25 food and consuming 14.
-I have stocked 51 out of a total of 51 food, and its been that way for at least a dozen turns.
-I am currently producing "Research" and have been for at least a dozen turns. I've switched it to other productions but that seems to have no effect.
-The city has 16 "Healthy" points vs. 10 "unhealthy" points.
-I have no unhappiness there (Globe Theater)
-I have a total of 15 cities, of which only 2 others have less than the 7 population Athens has.
-Not currently at war.
-No recent famine, plague, pestilence, political upheaval or paris hilton sightings.
And still Athens has been sitting at 7 population for at least a few dozen turns, with the granary full and saying it will grow in a turn and then not doing so. The only thing I could think of would be 6 of the city spaces are flood plains, however I don't see any mention anywhere of that being a problem. Anyone have any ideas, suggestions?

I had turned on "Avoid Growth" earlier on in the game to keep the population from going into "unhealthy" levels. I didn't realize that it would completely halt city growth, even though I was making tons of food.
