Flowering small plants?

How much growth would you need minimally to obtain a decent harvest, in anyone's opinion. Considering in minimal time and size as well for a first time grower? I'm mainly after just the educational aspect rather than just growing a massive trophy plant.

I'm setting up a box grow right now and would be interested in the answer to this too. I was thinking like 6" would be OK but I'm not really sure since I've never tried to keep plants small before.

not hard at all my last harvest was off a 21 inch tall plant that yielded 47.2 grams dry with 97 watts of light

all about knowing how to dial in your garden, which I explain in the 1st 40 pages of my NooB Advice thread

you can flower at any size just remember plants stretch so decide how big you want it to be when done and flower at 1/3 to 1/2 that size depending on strain. also you can grow it to 3/4 the size you want and use bushmaster to slow the stretch

How much of a difference would it make with the same 6500k light Vs. If I added in a 2700k for 12/12? Or even just a 2700k instead of the 6500k?

If you take a clone and drop it straight into 12/12 flowering, it'll usually get to be at least 3' tall by the end, and maybe more depending on the strain and how much light you use.

i debated it long and hard before i decided to flower. my deciding factor was nodes. got em all to around 6 nodes or so, then went into flower. worked out it was about 25 days in, which was fine for me cuz i just wanted it to be no more than a 3 month cycle.

I'm really thinking about doing the same with a Nirvana Full Moon, its flowering time is around 9 weeks, so if I induce flowering in one of the clones after just shy of a month I can make a 3 month cycle of it....which for a sativa will be wonderful, just one month longer than the auto's :) Actually, if that works out, I may stop growing the autos after the first harvest, really I'm just wanting sativa, and all auto's seem to either be rudelis/Indica, or they'll have sativa, but still be indica dominant.

Yeah, this is beyond 6 nodes I'm sure.. starting to loose track. Hehe. This strain is Northern Lights x Purple Haze.. I'll see what she does.

I was thinking of vegging my bagseed grow for about a week then make my way to a 12/12 within a week increments of changing the light cycle.

We depending on your max grow hight the pants look pretty good how are they inch wise i would start flowing at about 11-13 inches becouse ur plant is ganna double maybe even triple in the flowering process and depending on strain u could yeid any waere from 28g-1/2 pound
