low grow sativa

Post by spidergawd »

Hi guys I need a steer towards a fairly low growing sativa dominant for cupboard grow, appreciate any suggestions, are there any midget hazes for instance?

Spider. :)

Hi Spider,

Have a look through these..

With a little LST you should have no problem keeping them shortish. I used to have a 4ft high by 2ftx2ft box I made and had no problems with the G13 Raw Diesel, 98g off one plant dry.. I'll try pull up some old pics of it, was 2 years ago..

If I remember correctly there was no topping on this one... just pulled the top over and tied it down.. then kept tying down the highest top until I had an even(ish) canopy.

C99 would be my choice, 55 days flowering times and because of that they dont stretch too much in flower, Mosca Seeds BX1's are supposed to be top notch (Seed Boutique/Seedbay).

Ah thanks for that all, I will look forward to a nice couple of hours checking them out later on. :)
Space is 60cm.X80cm.X1.60. actually a max grow height of 1.10cm. so I was hoping for maybe 3 plants in 12inch pots will be OK.

Grapefruit from female seeds NL, its 75% C99 and you can flower the seedlings VERY early and yield is pretty impressive. Bat shit last 3 weeks to get the fruityness. 8)

Cheers guys I will go with the Grapefruit I reckon it ticks all my boxes, thank you Kermit.
O'Bongo, I love the name Dutchmans Royal Orange but its Indica heavy it seems and at my age and an all day toker, well it's speed we need :lol: The D.R.O. does look nice though and it sounds like it might be a good choice for me creaky joints. Can you grow more than one type in the same space?
Thanks again.
Hull, I've got some Haze going in the garden and I thought I might finish it off in the grow box with a bit of the bending and pegging technique as recomended by DUR in another thread, and start the Grapefruit after that.

This will be my first light grow for a few years, the lady chucked me out of the spare room on account of the aroma's :) and I've finally got round to building a shed at the bottom of the garden. I have an ancient 250w HPS, an old wharehouse light, but it used to do the business nicely. Bloody heavy though with the ballast built in. Any way I shall do this one and then I will get more modern light. Any views/experience with LED's anyone?

You'll find the Orange at most seed shops like Homegrown Fantaseeds but I think you might struggle finding the Grapefruit as I dont think I've ever seen any seeds by Female Seeds in the Dam.
