Is there any way, to change the field's *min_length* argument inside form

self.fields['primary_color'].min_length = 4
Assuming primary_color is a CharField, this should theoretically

Hi Bruno,
I answered this question on Stack Overflow earlier this week [1].
When a field with min_length is initialised, a MinLengthValidator is
added to the its validators. So if you set the min_length attribute
after calling parent classes __init__ method, it is 'too late' for it to
have any effect.
The solution is to change the field's validators in the __init__ method
instead,
Cheers,
Alasdair
