question on growing

[drumanick0]

ok, im growing in a place w/ very restricted height....2.5' to be exact. I really dont want a foot to go just to the pot so i was wondering if u can grow using pots that are just wider and longer but not as deep...what im lookin at is prolly 1'x2' and like 6" high would anything like this work? im planning on doing a lot of LST also....my setup is

1gal pot (or whats above if i can)
114w CFL (2 15w and 2 42w)
12" fan
timer
bagseed

im hoping for like an oz...not lookin for a ton, does this sound reasonable?

idk i mean plant want to grow down and if you had a pant that wasn't that deep then it may ot be stable, the roots being deep and large is what allows the plant to remain standing at greater heights

If thats all you can work with... then go for it. You could have the plant growing horizontally and just start the bloom cycle at like... 5-6 inches. Personally, i'd wait until i could do it right... but if you really need to do it... than give it a shot. LST like a maniac. Bend the stem back and forth to make it stronger, and maybe you'll have a shot. IM sure the roots will find a way to survive without the depth.

lol mayb i will just go for it....but i do have a 1gal bucket i could use too but the long one is much bigger....what if i did get a bigger bucket tho....say 2-3gal....is it possible to keep the plant like tiny in height but just make it a bush? lol, how much height would u give a plant to grow....really i just wanna understanding how to grow good and stuff....not really lookin for a huge yield, also is it enough light?

from my experience a 1 gallon bucket plant yields around 10-15 grams dry, destemmed, cured flowered at 8" and trained. My last grow was done in 24" with pots 8" tall so more like 16" for the plant, the four females produced 30 grams dry (very poor, I didnt veg with hid lights, bad timing, all sorted out now.). I now transplant to 2.5 gal pots and have more room, but plenty of "practice" plants can be done in 2 feet vertical.
