Hello, This is my 3rd attempt at growing in my closet. I know the basics to growing (fans, humidity, lights, etc.), but I have only grown with Lowryder 2's which are 16" tall and give off a small yield. I am looking for a strain that will grow well in my closet (6ft height x 3.5 x 3.5) and will give good yields. I am currently looking at the big bud strain from sensi seeds, but I am scared that it will be too large because it says it could go up to 150 cm which will mean they will burn due to my lights (TT_TT). Just to get to the point, Which strain is recommended for my closet and if the plant is a little big, can I LST (Low Stress Train) it to make it take up less room? And generally, which strain is a sweet strain (like the bubble gum flavoured ones)? note: I don't mind if the strain isn't sweet, I just want it to be a proven strain that will grow well! Thank you everybody! btw, my pot is 10+ inches tall...

Sup Danny, with the dimensions u gave u should be ok with a scrog or lst indicas, since u are growing in ur closet u will need to vent and have strong lights once they begin to bud so u can have a good yield, not enough light will decrease ur yield by Alot.

Depending on ur money and amout of plants IMO u will be fine with a 250 watt cooltube digital ballast grow light, with a inline fan to keep ur closet nice and kool.

Honestly i was thinking of doing a similar thing, i was gonna turn half of my closet into a veg/cloning area but then i just decided on getting a smaller grow tent, put it right next to my mother Grow tent.

Thanks guys! I'll take some pictures soon (I have to find my memory card) I'm pretty sure they're hiding in my basement somewhere... Anyways, isn't scrog a method of growing with nets?

And this "lst indicas".. Where can I get seeds of this strain? So far, I only trust Attitude, Pick 'n' mix, Marijuana-seeds-canada for my seeds.

So if you are able to, can you send me a link from one of those suppliers? And I have no problem with the lights; I know a guy who will be happy to let me "borrow" some from his botany store for a small percentage of the product.

Anyways, I'm sort of a noob with strains (The only Strain I have grown is lowryder 2 and a failed attempt at big bud; it died), so please don't pay attention to my silly questions I might ask... Any other proven strains? (I heard that Northern Lights is easy to grow as well as AK-47/48)

Once again, I thank you all for giving me a base to start with :D Also, for strategy, would it be a good idea to harvest, keep leaves and continue to grow (It should stress it to make a hermi) so that I can get some feminized seeds?

Indica is a Strain type, Sativas grow bigger, taller and longer in flowering stage & a heady type of high. Indica is smaller bushier, best for indoor growing & the high is a body high, K.O style :)

And I have no problem with the lights; I know a guy who will be happy to let me "borrow" some from his botany store for a small percentage of the product. Sure man just buy it off www.amazon.com i have the prime membership for like 75 bucks a year and you get express next day delivery.

Soma Seeds amnesia Haze, world of seeds legend collection, and any Barneys Farm :)

I am borrowing my friend's dehumidifier (He had a sinus problem or something like that) and I'm just going to use the ghetto method for fans; just a regular fan that has a shortened stalk with a carbon filter attached to the back. Also, what is the panda film for?

Thanks bro, but I probably won't use it; my closet walls are already painted white and it's a pretty confined space so the light will bounce everywhere and if worst comes to worst, I'll just get a couple CFLs to cover the spaces where my primary light can't reach.
