So I have a three foot grow space, and I don't want to grow an autoflower again haha. Anyone know of a hardy, shorter growing strain that would better suit my needs? Thanks for help ya'll!

I found that the Purple Kush I am growing is pretty darn short. Not sure if it is me or the strain as it is a virgin grow for me. But they are like ground cover. 4 weeks in the buckets.

LST. don't let genetics restrict what you grow.

I'm currently in the throws of LSTing right now. That's my stuff right there... But the problem is I've read around that when they go into flowering, it hurts the potency (not necessarily yield) if you keep LSTing while they're trying to produce buds. Any word on that? I have a sweet tooth going right now that'll probably reach 2.5 feet by the time it's finished, so LSTing will have to be a must. So may I ask another question? What size pots do you guys usually finish your plants in? I transferred mine to a 5 gal, but my friend said he uses 3 gal pots and grows 4-5 foot plants... So does root bounding make a difference or not?

Larger pots will grow a larger plant that will yield more wish I would have went to a 4or5gal from my 2.5 but ole well lol. I quit LST'ing at 2 weeks of flowering because I no longer had height restrictions but it's all up to you...

So it won't over stress the plant, causing a decline in potency? I'm not really concerned over yield if it's like 5% thc haha

In my first grow, we LST'd the hell out of Sensi star. the plant was basically on its own, not even needing the training about 3 weeks into flowering. it hasnt grown much vertically at all. I'd say its maybe 2 feet tall in the pot (3gal)

check my thread for pics of it
