Like which? I'm pretty positive that it's not exactly legal to do so.

it's not exactly legal to order seeds no matter if they come from the states or outside of the states, buy why risk dealing with customs if you don't have to?
great lake genetics like mentioned already is one spot, the dank team, sour patch seeds are a few others..

Pricey but convenient. It really comes down to paying like $35 and wait 3 weeks with the likelihood of not showing up. Or pay like $80 for US seeds. I'd hate to sound

I'd hate to sound like a tightwad but I'd much rather be paying $4 a seed. Some of these strains are pricey and not feminized. Unless you can show me a good one. I'll remember these sites for next time when I do flip my investment.

Why not deal with customs? Have you really had a high number of seed orders caught cause I must be over 15 out of 15. I also read some bad reviews of Sour Patch and the selection well not that good IMO. Ace, Mandela, Mr. Nice, Sannies, peak, etc. Etc. Are all good places to get seeds really more depends what you want. But I have never once had an issue with customs and if you want BOG fuck them American banks $50 a pack from the breeder $80 from them banks even Gypsy is cheaper.

If i do use bagseeds It's a hassle to know which are male and female. I'm about to have a 2x2x4 grow tent (Tiny I know) with 7500 lumen t5 fixture.

Plan A) Buy fem seeds online and scrog grow one at a time.

Plan B) Grow 6 plants using bag seeds and keep one female and transplant to final pot for scrog. If they are all female do a sea of green grow.

Plan C) Buy autoflowering fem seeds and grow 2 autoflowering plants at one time.
I'm thinking of ordering from ilovegrowingmarijuana.

A and C will both work great once you dial in your cab. You are wise to consider the pot in your vertical limitations. It's a big deal. B in my opinion, and am sure it can be done and has been, but is not the best route.

You can beat your vertical limitations with photo going 12/12 from seed. And possibly using a little low stress training. I actually like this idea the best. The more you fill up your limited space horizontally may require more light lumens which means more heat and heat will also be a big factor in a limited space. Autos are awesome for this space as well. Just get a short fast variety. Whatever you choose short and fast to harvest should be very important considerations. You don't have the space to veg.

Seedbanks. US banks are extremely competitive. As an example. $77=11 reg seeds shipped. These are regs, got $7 a seed. But wait, freebs? Sure maybe they throw in another pack of 12 seeds. And Bodhi packers are so high they can't count. So you get 12-15 seeds. That is not bad and these well regarded US guys are selling top notch genetics.

Overseas banks are fine too. But, $35? Man whenever I ordered overseas I don't think I ever spent less than $150. I usually loaded up for a minute getting some top notch Dinafem and a few other packs, maybe a couple of pick and mix then the freebs. Then there's shipping and yeah, since I am doing it I will buy a tshirt or coffee mug as a souvenir. So. Cost is inconsequential and the US breeders are top notch and well regarded. Seed Vault of Cali and Bodhi genes. A+ Cheap seeds suck bro. I tried them. Maybe an O or so of mids after 3 months ain't cool. Dinafem ones I get are more like 3-4 times your $4 per seed.

Reg seeds in your cab? Yes absolutely. Start wit 5 and go to 12/12 at 2 weeks then 2-3 weeks later, save your best female or 2, cull the rest or keep a male and pollinate.

Like the idea of flouros in that cab. HPS will cause heat issues.

So final verdict. I say go with a US bank. Grow 1-2 photos 12/12 from seedling. Maybe get 3-5 o,s every 3 months or so with a fast 8 week flowering strain. Consider you're not going to go commercial with this set up bro. It's a micro grow. That's what I do. :bigjoint:

Like in my last reply the total for herbies came out to about 37.81 USD for some pretty bomb looking strains.

Isn't the amount of hours a plant receives under lights correlated to the amount of hormones (auxins I think) produced in the plant? And depending on those hormones it will either induce flowering or not? Also T5's aren't as good as HID and HPS so I would I assume that more exposure is key for making big plants.

In that small space you shouldn't have to worry about making "big" plants. At least in my case I am usually more aware of trying to keep my plants small enough they don't outgrow the cab. Honestly, I think I only finished 1 or 2 grows in my cab which the dimensions are very close to yours, once or twice. Both times I had to keep the cab door opened just because the temps got too high inside. Anymore I don't even use the cab. Just the closet. You should be gtg with those flouros. Cab growing can certainly be challenging bro. Best of luck.
