Greetings to all my people! Lately I've been getting frustrated each time I had to pay for my herb and started thinking about the growing option. The only place I can think of so far is a small cupboard in my bedroom that measures 25'' high, 29'' wide and 13'' deep. I'm looking at a cfl grow and would appreciate all ur input on getting me started. Haven't got the seeds yet, I would like to finish setting up my growbox first and then find some descent seeds. It'd be ideal if I could buy all the parts I need locally to avoid suspicion since where I come from, getting caught growing marijuana is a very serious offense. I was thinking to go soil at first. These questions pop to mind: For my space, what would be the ideal number of plants that will produce the maximum bud for the space provided? What kind of materials will I roughly need to begin with? I'm sure a lot more questions will come along. Any input would be madly appreciated Thanks
After reading a bit I decided to go with ScrOG. Also, I'm not quite sure if I'm going to use cfl lights since hps ones are reccomended for this method of growing. Any help or ideas on this would be awesome. Are there any particular strains of plants that are ideal for the scrog grow?
Hi! I think youre space sounds perfect, but it's too small for an HPS. How many plants depends on how you manage your plants (like scrog, or LST). This is one of my plant that was LST'd. She's just over 2ft x 2ft wide - but pot and only only stands at 22". She would more than fill your space - and you'd only have to care for one massive plant... plus LST'ing gives a ton of budsites that are easily exposed by lighting from overhead.
Chickadie thanks for ur reply! If I use LST with one single plant how much bud do u reckon I'll be looking at harvesting? Would lst, considering the available space, be preferrable over scrog in getting the max amount of bud?
I'm really not sure which would have more yield. The concepts are very similar - creating a short, bushy plant. here is a combination of the 2, sort of?? LBH's 4-Way LST Tutorial w/ Topping LBh combines LST with Topping to create a bunch of top colas... a similar effect as using the scrog method.
