Best Cannabis Strains for Grow Boxes (Micro Grow)
Selecting the right cannabis seeds for you and your grow box can be overwhelming, especially with so many options on the market.
Today we're going to be looking at selections tailored for compact growing systems like the Hey abby grow box. Whether you prefer indica, sativa, or hybrid strains, let's take a look at some of the parameters that may help narrow down your search.
Best Strain Types for Cannabis Micro-Growers
Indica and Indica-Dominant Hybrids
When growing cannabis indoors in a compact space, one of the biggest limiting factors is size. Indica strains and indica dominant hybrids are typically more compact plants, making them ideal choices for micro grows.
Another factor that makes indicas a great choice is their faster flowering time. If you prefer sativas, it is still possible to grow them in a tight space, but it will require more attention to properly prune and train your cannabis plant in the vegetative stage.
If you're set on growing a sativa strain, be sure to top your plant regularly in veg, and consider triggering the flowering stage before it fills roughly 50% of your available space.
Autoflowers
Another popular option for small grow chambers is autoflowers. These plants are fast flowering, and will typically mature into small to medium sized plants.
Fast Versions
Fast version cannabis seeds are another category that can work well for weed micro grow. Fast versions have been bred to have just enough ruderalis to shorten the flowering time, while remaining a photoperiod dependent like typical cannabis.
