Okay, first grow just finished. All is well, however, I did have an issue with room, as I only have a 4x4 space to use. I am wondering what a good strain might be that grows more up than out and bushy. I'm sure I'll get an "anything sativa" response, but I've only got about 4.5 feet of vertical space. I'm simply looking to maximize yield for my limited space, as I believe that is probably the overall goal. Any input on this would be fantastic. Thanks everyone!

4x4 space is decent space for any strain really, if height you wanna stay under 4 ft or so, do some cropping and do some LST'ing to minimize width.
I have a 4x6 location and can easily flower 16 plants at once with little or no overlapping.

you could always go 12/12 from seed.

I will say "anything sativa + a little training." I am a big advocate for LSTing. it's possible to keep a plant under 3ft including light space with proper LST. I wouldn't worry about your strain bud there are always solutions if you choose one that gets too tall, especially with your amounted space

selective pruning is always an option to keep any plant the size you want it. Respect

pretty much everything everyone said so far is good advice, its up to your personal preference and the space you got... but a 4x4x4.5 space is prob best suited for auto flower, or 12/12 from seed option.

Thanks for the info guys. I'll try some of this out. As for the 12/12 flower, will that really make a difference even if the strain is not auto?

12-12 can be quite awesome, it does make a big difference, there is one guy who has a long going thread, del6666 or something close to that. its called the 12/12 Thread check it out, he seems to havedamn near perfected it.
