Hi All,
Thanks in advance for any help you can provide. This isnt my first grow, but my first in a new place/setup.
Here is my SETUP:
I have a 2x3x6 plywood box, lined with mylar + all the ventilation I need.
250 WATT MH/HPS digital ballast + several 42 WATT CFLs
Soil: General Potting mix, coco coir, perlite
Strain: Unknown Indica to start, also have Manitoba Poision + Skunkberry (sativa) to try next.
Nutes: Fox Farm Tri-Mix, B'CUZZ Root Stimulator, Superthrive
Yes, I have a relatively small space but do have enough height to let the plants I grow reach their full potential.
Here is my Dilemma in two choices:
1. I could put in as many plants as I can fit and SOG. Let them get 2 feet tall and flower for one main cola per plant.
2. (what I am thinking of doing) Use 4, 2 gallon pots and veg longer, doing LST until the plants are about 2 feet tall and taking up the entire 2X4 canopy, creating a bunch of bud sites per plant. Then flower.
Main Questions.. what is my best option, 1 or 2?
Should I top them or do LST? Or another method?
Are 2 gallon pots big enough if I choose option 2?
How are my nutes? Is there a big difference between something like "advanced nutrients"
Should I add in a bunch more CFLS?.. will it give me a better yeild? I was thinking of adding them in down low to hit lower buds.
What kind of yield have others gotten with a similar setup?
Thank you SO much for any advice help.
