Hey everybody. Been on this site for a while but don't really post. Newbie grower. Had maybe 10 harvest. Some soil with Miracle Grow lol but a few more in the hydro depot. Made MANY newbie mistakes but started getting the hang of things. I have a fairly good understanding of what it takes to grow all kinds of plants including MJ. But I've always used bagseed. Now I'm wanting to experiment in organics I already have my mix cooking but this go around i want to buy some seeds so I know exactly what I got. I don't want auto flowers because I'm growing ina 3x3x4 box i built. Using a 300w LED light. And i want to set up a Scrog. I'm looking for a bushy strain that I can train to have a perfectly even canopy in my box ina short time. I'm pretty confident in gettin the beans started with so I don't mind spending a decent amount but don't want to go overboard being I'm experimenting with my soil mix. If you made it this far thanks for reading and would love any input or past experiences you guys have had! Thanks!
Hi i'm doing - allow me to Copy & Paste

Yes i'm lazy or maybe I believe in optimising time

I would suggest White Widow - Normal Strain it's a bit Bushy well was for me and well the XXL was Bushy 2/3 Plants. Both WW (Normal) and WW XXL can be Scrog fairly easy if you tie down longer stems first and then apply Scrog net ontop after.
There are multiple videos also on youtube with people using and explaining how to Scrog but since you want to train them look up Topping, Trimming and FIM for more branches and BUDS, make sure you spread it all out even. I usually start to train them after their 3rd node - 3rd set of branches/leaves. When they are about 12 Inches based upon how they grow I usually tie down/bend (over) longest stems and after 24hrs I apply scrog. In a video a guy used an oven grill panel directly on top evenly/flat the top half of the plants it caused weight to push them down and prepare them for scrog - nice idea and faster than tying the stems down
But the 3x3 and only a 300w ... I donno, I guess 1'.5 x 1'.5 would be ok it's just that i'm sure you will not have enough light coverage to provide all plants with an equal level of light. I use LED so when I last grew 3 plants with a 300W I placed them in a triangle formation and rotated them daily during Veg. I had to rotate them because I saw that if I lined all 3 up the coverage was forcing the plants outside of the middle to grow at an angle towards the light, this also means they are not all getting equal light. I personally suggest get at least another light if you want to go 3x3
So basically if you have poor coverage = poor yield. Just as they started to flower I added a 600w for total coverage based upon the area i wanted to grow in, tbh it helped but I would have had much better results if I had them ALL equally covered from go...
Now they are Flowering and all seems fine
. I put them in a grow tent just for their size 100% Highly Reflective, so now they have full cover but the tent is cramped and i'll have to make a couple of modifications like shove the air filter fan outside and most probably i'll get 2-4 small clip fans so I remove the 20" one which is doing a balancing act on the Dehumidifier while being chained to the top of the cage just incase the vibrations make it fall off
, I would hate to wake up finding my plants crushed by a fan would rly tick me off
