have you considered autoflowering strains? (i have no experience on auto strains personaly)
I have bought from nirvana before and think they are under rated.
They treated me awesome deffinately check em out and they're cheap.
On the strain matter you probly want to lean towards indicas.
I like kush strains alot they stay dense and bushy for me.
Really any heavy indica will do the trick.
Good luck hope this helped.

Thanks... I was going to go with a satavia because I read that the leaves are smaller allowing more light to hit the entire plant, is this true ? My plants are gonna be close together with my superlocker 2.0 thats why I was going with the smaller sativa leaves.

any type of stress can lengthen the flowering cycle. there is no set time for any one strain, yes once you have a dialed in system you can get pretty damn close. Its done when its done. pick up a 420 scope (any head shop) and keep an eye on your trich development.
here is where the debate comes in. some people say all cloudy some say all amber, i like to see about 25% amber myself.
Ended up going with Herbie's to buy seed's. This is what I got
Basic "stealth" option (I live in US)
5-Barney's Pineapple Chunk Feminised
5- Barney's 8 ball kush
Also got about 8 free seeds because I spent over 50 euro's...
I choose those two plants because they are easy to grow, have the same flowering period, and grow to about the same height.

"Superponics" = Deep Water Culture and nothing more. DWC is not at all the most ideal choice for cabinets. Pre-made cabs in their stock form tend to get way too hot due to their use of shitty axial fans, and if you can't keep your reservoir temps cool in DWC then you're definitely headed for troubleville.
What u think about my pineapple chunk and 8 ball feminised seeds I purchased, good choice for that superlocker ??

Can't really say. Barney's Farm only seems to sell fem seeds now so I wouldn't know.
Pics of P-Chunk do like nice however!

1 plant. maybe two. that is made for a single mother plant. if u want to look at my sig i have a micro cab going. its 4 feet wide 4 ft high and 2 feet deep. I have six 2.5 week veg time. and i am running out of space fucking quick. they are just about done with the stretch.
Ok question. Since my space is like 15" X 24" x about 4 feet tall, is the veg and flower stage shorter and what is the time about in each stage
Also Bigz u think I can fit only 1-2 plants in there?? I've been told 4 plants on this forum and from others.

Flowering time does not change by the size of your space. veg time does only because you cant physically let them get tall enough or they will burn on the light.
the breeders that you get the seeds from give you suggested flowering times, which is a good place to start, but by no means is a guide to cut it down here.
If a plant goes through too much stress it can delay the flower stage prolonging it. As a general rule, sativas usually take longer to flower than indicas. Also one thing to consider, Just because its only one plant, does not take the yield down. By simple trainging methods you can boost your yield. One of the easiest ways i have seen to do this is through the SCROG technique (screen of green) Similar to the sea of green method where there is many small plants forced to flower created a canopy effect.
By using a screen (usually netting or chicken wire) you can train the plants to grow horiz rather than vertically. Your box comes with one of these screens. keep in mind you will need a longer veg time to achieve this properly. a good one to look at right now would be Hydrodog. he has a scrog going right now titled white widow x big bud 6 rdwc scrog. its sexy and a perfect example of scrogging.
So what is a the length of time from seed to harvest for my box... And what u except my yield to be the first time I harvest if I do this right? Is 200 g's possible ??

man you should have just built one like this. i spent way less than 1000 on this unit and it runs a 400w and only 2 plants scrog, those 2 yielded me 8 oz and they where totally the wrong strain for that grow, with the right strain i would think i could hit 12 oz no problem. that thing was built a ran off of shear bordem took me a day! that thing you have is to small imo i would do one plant in DWC and give it a good veg and hope for the best out of it. 200g's off of a 250w light your first time is going to be hard imo.
