Can I grow with just 4ft of height?

Pretty much sums it up, I have just 4ft of height in my grow space, can I grow there and any short breeds would be great.

yes..LST or mainline.

indicas/indica dom tend to be shorter and bushier..like white widow with more delicate bud

Read up on training
Mainlining is about keeping them equal - which involves chopping the main (tallest) stem.

Do you have ALL the 4 feet?

Or does your reflector take some of that space up???

I am familiar with LST and Suppercropping, no the reflector will take up at least 6", plus the pots will take up about 1ft. So if I take the rule of thumb of 18" between light and plant tops I am left with just 1ft of plant space, which is really impractical. I will have to find a taller space. Thanks people.

you could do a scrog with a wide shallow dish for a pot ...my first grow ever was in a small attic crawl space in a 6" x 30" x 30" potting bed usin three desk lamps. lil basterd gave me lil over an oz . Also you might consider a vertical scrog as long as you have enough surface area to keep the temps down

can't you just hang he light vertically and grow that way. there's a forum about vertical growing check it out.

You could use a T5 HO...

that's an interesting idea you should definitely look into, as you are probably going to need at least 1ft of head space for your lighting, and your plants are gonna be in pots a good 8-12 inches up from the floor, so any extra headspace would really help. going vertical would eliminate the headspace needed for lighting

Dude... 4 feet is so doable...
Don't be a Debbie downer...
I grow many... 18" plants in veg...I veg a 7-10 week plant LST over and over...under CFL's...
Which grow to 28-34" in bud...A 7 week photo period plant... which I clone and harvest over and over...
Many plants... small sized... weekly harvest...
When others say "That wont work"
Just figure out a way that it will....
Then, when you do it... you will be so much more satisfied....
Good Luck all!

Just avoid mostly sativas and you will be fine. Most of my indicas dont get taller than 2ft.
