        Tall

        Over on this side of the earth, what "they" call "Blueberry", here in the great State of Nevada tends to be a fairly tall plant. Lost of sativa genetics. So for indoor grow here I use a trellis line located about 3 and one halve feet/one meter above the plant container. I bend the plant along the string line as it grows out. I start to bend the plant in the veg stage, A bamboo stake on the edge of the plant container then I tie the tops over and to this stake. Sometimes in the veg stage I have to place the tie over bamboo stake in the next plant container over sometimes even have to move the bend stake to the third plant container over . This gets a good bend started for your flower time. Then in the flower time anticipate at least one to two feet of more growth. If not bent you'll find your Blueberry top bud around 5 and one half to 6 feet/2 meters above your plant containers. Much to tall for most indoor grows. Try the Bend......

        On a 4' X 4' plastic container I run a 3-4' high line along the outside of the 4X4 container then in the middle of said container I grow 3-4 Indicia plants at the same time never moving my 1000 watt High Sodium more than 1 foot up during the entire floor time. Sativa on the outside indicia on the inside total 9 - 15 plants in said container. 10 plants (4 sativa, 1 each corner and 6 indicia (2 rows of 3 plant containers) in the center seems to yield the same amount as any other amount of plants placed into the 4'x4' container using the same size plant containers....
        I use 2 gal pot. With 65/35% cocoa fiber/perlite run to waste hydro.


        ADVICE: Blueberry tends to grow very tall. As least here in the West......

            Gene87 did you say that mg soil had a 6 month slow release ferts already in it? IF so i would wait a while before feeding them to see how it does by itself. Just water for now.

              I agree. I just heard a story about that mg slow release stuff. Not much point in a six month release with a plant that only takes 3-4. I would lay of the nutes for a while yet.
