420 shade is right.... It's kinda a unspoken rule that you need atleast 30" to grow. It's just not going to work with anything smaller.

18 of pure grow space or do u have to add light and soil/hydro setups to that? If you need to add lighting looks like ur gonna be working with under 100watt HPS or floros...It can easily be done, low ryder will work perfect for that but if u want to be able to clone then it's not an option. I'd go for an 100% indca strain they are normally short and bushy rather than the staiva which like to strectch...also i'd recomend looking into scrog growing, also check out the design section theres a few good post about micro grow boxes that will give you some good ideas...

man that is pretty tight for space. Grow outdoors if thats the best you can do for inside. For the little amount of bud you will produce its not worth the hassle and most of all risk.

correct me if im wrong... but couldn't you just do a ScrOG grow and make the screen alot lower, and train the plant at a younger age? Im sure the yeild would be a hella lot less, but wouldn't you still at least get some?

Porkchop · #11 (**permalink**) 11-05-2004, 03:49 AM

yeah plumbface, you would get some, but would it be enough to make it worth while. If he gets bigger box, then well it will haev a larger yeild. but i have never done scrog,

but still dude get a bigger box. I know some people say its not the size that counts but in marijuana growing it is! I got plenty of space available to me. If not i make it. And I live in an apartment.
