Small space - how long to veg?

[DasPachy]

2ft(w) x 1ft(l) x 2.5ft(h) cabinet. Planned on two plants, LST, side by side. After browsing some grow logs, it seems even LST plants can get very big (around, not tall). Already planned on a short veg time, but now not sure just how long. How long can they veg without running into SERIOUS space constraint issues (I already know there will probably be some) by harvest time?

im in the same predicament you are my box is only like 2.5 ft tall lol

[bigsmoke07]

i think what im gonna do is ad on about 2 or 3 feet of ply wood to make it taller ya know. mabye that will help. idk

[DasPachy]

Thanks for the replies. Seems like LST is a good solution to the limited height issue. Unfortunately, seems like it makes the plants much bushier, and hence, much bigger around. This is my problem. I think. Hopefully someone can advise me on what kind of veg time I should use to keep things from getting too out of control.

24/0 for a week and then 12/12

lol, told ya it'd blow your mind!

So with the short veg time, say 1 week, would grow nutes even be fed? Or only flower nutes? Or perhaps feed grow nutes until budding actually begins?

lol, yeah, they still need to be fed, you should read his entire thread.
everything he does is organic so he doesn't buy anything to feed them,
he mixes it all himself. he's been growing for near 30 years.

shit, i just re-read your question and saw that i'd missed the point.

i feed them a vegging nute mix for thier first feeding and then they go
into flower.

[DasPachy]

Have you ever tried feeding grow nutes for the first maybe 2 weeks of flowering (before buds develop), then switching to bloom nutes?

I read that the guy growing organic in 20oz bottles uses superthrive so he does use some nutrients, can't remember what other nutes besides some generic stuff. I'll have to change my mood to inspired after seeing that guys grow!
