Need Short Bushy Strains

Howdy fellow tokers :blsmoke:

I am browsing seed companies (Canadian companies) trying to find the shortest strains for my indoor soil set-up. I will need your help and suggestions!

With my reflector/cooling tubes/ballast installed and taking into account 12 inches loss for pots on the ground, that leaves me with a maximum plant height of less than 3 feet (80 centimeters, or 31.5 inches). I am ready to reduce pot size to save height, and my cool tube (with a small fan attached at the end of it to keep heat flowing out) make it possible to keep lights really close to plants. Topping (or «training») the plant will also help control the height, and maybe even a net at max level, or ropes tied from the branches to the pot (to keep them from reaching up).

So far I've come across Oh! Zone and Endless Sky (both from DrGreenthum, feminized), that are said to reach 18-24 inches when flowered ASAP (when 10-12 inches tall).

SO! Any suggestions? :-? What strain do you propose for a small indoor plant? I'm looking for bushy, small and productive (indica of course) :mrgreen:

You better stop reading breeders descriptions to get an honest report. Seed sellers will say mostly anything to get their beans sold. Endless Sky takes 10-11 weeks to finish and it has 2 pheno's- one is rather short (and difficult to grow) and the other is taller and less picky. The taller pheno more then doubles in flowering. Look at growers RECENT reports for the most accurate info.

And to answer your question, check out Sweet Seeds Green Poison. Stays very short and done in 60 days and a very nice indica......

Thank you guys for the quick responses!

So far here's the list I have for my bushy selection (that sounds funny), according to e-mails from seed companies, your advices and notes from other forums :

- Any Afghani ...
- Oh! Zone or Endless Sky (Dr.GreenThumb)
- Hashberry or Speed Queen (from Mandala)
- Troublemaker (from Dr.Chronic)
- Sensi Star (from Paradise seeds ; seen it in forums, also a suggestion from Hemp Depot via e-mail)
- Arjans Haze #3
- Snow White (from Attitude)
- Wonder Woman (Nirvana Seeds)
- Green Poison (Sweet seeds
- Bubba Kush x Deep Chunk (Cannacopia)
- Deep Chunk (Tom Hill)

I'm aware that lights are probably the most important factor (shitty lights = tall lanky grow). I think I've got it covered with 400 W. MH for veg. and 400 W. HPS for flowering. The Cool Tube will help alot, and so will the mini fan that constantly aerates the tube.

Now, to select a strain ...

I haven't finished growing them yet but most indica varietys shouldbe able to be kept short... espically if they are topped. My Midnight Kush & Blueberry Gum are both looking quity bushy and being very indica dom, should stay fairly short. I am very impressed with their growth so far
