Hi, I'm growing some plants of random genetics (5 day old seedlings right now) and don't want them to get too tall because my grow box is pretty small. I'm wondering what the best methods to encourage them to be short are. I plan to LST them and place a few bulbs (I'm using CFLs all through) around the sides of the plants to try and entice the plants to become bushy and short.
Is there anything else I can do that isn't too bad for the plants? What if I used a 2 liter ice-cream container as my final soil pot? Would a small pot make the roots stay small so the plants don't get too long, or will the roots just grow as usual and then get root-lock or whatever?
Thanks for any help.
