i have a very small grow box {fridge} and i am using 2 liter bottles with the tops cut off and some holes in the bottoms {works pretty good} but i am sure im not growing to my full potential thought the plants grow very fast and i have not seen any signs of root bind ? {oh yeah they are filled with clay pebbles with the plants in rockwool}:roll:

well i have grown outdoors for 5 years {edges of fields in 10 gallon pots } but its a big stress on me cause some people locally got busted so i got me an indoor set up so i could try some different strains and grow some year round. the reason for the post was just i dont really know the plant well enough and was afraid that maybe my pots were too small and if they were that the next plants i set in pots {which is like this week} should i go for bigger pots ? i love the site and would love to be an active part of it. like i heard in some post before. i already know how to grow pot and after this site i feel like i could make a weed fueled rocket ship haha. but im just worried cause this is the first time for me growing indoors tried using my bagseed from the stuff i grew before and got alot of males so i need to get some feminzed seeds cause i tell you what when you grow four plants and only one is female thats a #@$@# never had that problem outdoor and why i got your attention i been asking around whats your favorite strain ? cause i really dont know what to pick cause all the stuff we get around here is cheap and sucks compared to the shit i have had traveling.

oh and yes i grew one sativa {dont know the strain bagseed} 10 foot once it was massive had to lay her over after about 7 foot. talk about sticking out in the crowd lol its kinda sad these plants in my box that i have to keep them so short but i hope they make some good smoke only 3 wheeks left till harvest of my first indoor.

this is my first time growing at all, but my plants look real good and I am going to use the supercrop method when flowering, my plants are about 4 months old lol and about 4 feet tall, I am going to be using 2 LED'S and one 150watt HPS one them , should have my cab finished over the weekend I will post ya a pic when I have it finished. just to damn hot outside to work all day to finish, got about half way and had to go inside, 106 degrees today in the sun, 99 in the shade. I also need to put mine in some new pots, the ones I have them in done got to small, I transplanted my lil ones this morning, they look great, I topped all of them 3 days ago and they all have 2 new tops growing, they should be ready to flower in about 4 to 5 more weeks. post some pics , lets have a look see at your girls.

Well definently have to post the girls just i dont have my own internet or camera so im still waiting for an opportunity to show them off. Your going with soil? good choice especially for a first grow this is my first indoor and since i had plenty of experience with dirt i went hydro {real simple and cheap} my watering system consists of a cup and a bucket just water those babys twice a day! no clogged filters and complete control over my water! Oh speaking of soil one of biggest tricks is get some african violet potting soil if not an african violet feeding fromula from your local store ! might have to shop around a bit to find it but a real old head friend of mine {guys 80 and i tell you what !} told me about it years ago back when i was a guerrilla farming wookie! but you can grow it from any good soil {just so easy} i got one in soil right now i will be sure to post pics of her! been seeing you around {you know this is all false and pretend right}
