If you examine the output from disklabel(8) using sector counts -- that is, without using "m" or "g" to print the partition layout -- you will more easily be able to see if there are any unallocated sectors.

The growfs(8) utility can increase the size of a partition, but only if there are adjacent unallocated sectors that follow. The only other way to change an existing partition's size is to back it up, delete and reallocate it, then restore.
