Hi! I'm ordering my seeds tomorrow from seeds direct. This'll be my first grow and it's taking place in a fairly small area. 3'x3'x6' or so. Im really looking to maximize my grow potential maybe by using a ScrOG or something. This will be a 1-time grow, meaning I won't be able to continue it for another year or so afterwards. So I'm really looking to grow as much as possible in this area. This is the only area of the house my mom and I have decided we are fully capable of keeping from smelling to god-awful strong because of the plants.

So here's what I'm looking for:

It doesn't have to be the very best bud ever, but I do want alot of it. As much as possible in that little area. I don't want low quality bud either though, just I want to be able to make it last as long as possible after harvest. My mom said I can do one grow here before I move out.. and after I move out I'll temporarily be insanely poor. That's why I want as big of a yield as possible. So what are some strain suggestions you have? Any advice is appreciated! Thanks. :)

Howdy Encatuse,

I think that you chose a good strain,it was the first thing that popped into my mind-when you said that you were looking for a big yield.

I was just wondering-how much light will ya have for the grow ? I think that you will need at least a 300 or 400 watt hps or mh,in order to have the light intensity to produce dense,large and multiple buds.

I don't know much about these here 'feminized' seeds,and whether they are worth the extra cost-but there's no doubt,that you want only females for this grow-no need for males to produce seed..as long as you wind up with 3 or 4 females,you should be able to achieve your goal.

Good Luck !

Have a good one...Torog :D

Thanks. :) Glad to hear I made a good strain choice. ^.^ I think I'm looking at a 1000 watt, but that's 1 and a half more weeks wortha pay, so it would definately delay how soon I wanna start growing.. ((as soon as i recieve hte seeds.... lol)) but I'm thinking about it. And the main reason I might just go with a cheaper light ((still HPS, like 280 watt I think it was)) is because Im currently saving.. But I probably will go with the 1000 watt one..
