Sativa is going to be the biggest yielding I think, but the smell of the indica is far more potent.

How does everyone control the stretch of a plant? I'm not talking LST or anything like that, basically, I see people saying they're in much larger pots than I am in, but manage to keep their plants small or at least they look under 30" tall. My largest are 53" and 47" during week 9 of flower.

I use CFL's and keep my CFL's around 1-3 inches from my plants, granted I know I'll get more stretch because I'm only using 2700k CFL's but surely I should be able to stop a plant reaching 40"+ in height in a 5 litre pot...

Any tips?

Also, if anyone got the Kandy Kush x Skunk #1 freebies from SoS last year, the ones from Sam the skunkman or something, well... It let's off one hell of a stink! Like it's blown everything I've ever grown out of the water in terms of smell.

Stretch can be controlled by your day/night temp fluctuation. Less fluctuation means less stretch, more means more.

but yeah light spectrum will affect it too

Thanks, I think that may be the problem. I'll see if I can get a night heater or something.

I find keeping them in smaller pots to keep root bound helps. first 2 weeks mine are in party cups then up to 1.5l for next 2 weeks then onto a 6.5l for finishing. I also keep my temp difference small, stick them under a 600w mh from when they sprout as close as possible for first 3 weeks. they love the extra light and no need for them to stretch. combine that with some lst if necessary (mainly bending the tops over for me) and I manage to keep mine at 18-24" yielding anything from 2-4 zips a plant +
