First grow - need height tips

[Ages84]

Hi there,

I am about to start my first grow in a PC unit but it a fairly small unit and im not sure how well i will do for the height of the plant...
How can i ensure that the height stays to a minimum? I read somewhere that using small pots could keep the height down?

I have auto girl scout cookies, whats yoir advice??

Cheers

Height is dependent on several things. Lights, strain, distance between lights. Ive got 4 plants right now that are running from 3 to 5 ft. Other than bending and tying down the main cola Ive never had to worry about height. Run a search on LST on this site. You can train your plant to keep it shorter. Hope that helps.

GSC (fastbuds strain) does really well in small pots...just finished 3 in 2 ltr pots. They all were uniform sizes at 18-20 inches above pot so you're gonna have a space issue that may not have a workable answer.
I do have a friend who sometimes will run a couple strains in solo cups for fun but height can still be an issue.
Good luck with it but its gonna be a challenge...but that's how you learn!
