    What’s my best option

    I'm kinda stuck in a little bit of a predicament. I have a 3x2x6 tent using DWC. Since I am kinda new to this and have been reading post after post I figured there would be a failure rate in germinating seeds. I only bought 3 of them so I figured 1 or 2 wouldn't make it. To my surprise all three made it and now I'm not sure what is the best solution to the problem since I am somewhat limited on space. The seeds that germinated are Green Crack. I figured this would be the best place to go and see what everyone suggests is the best solution.

    Ideally you’d have at least 3 buckets to start all 3 and pick the best 2 of the 3 to finish. I’m guessing you don’t have that luxury so unless you like in an area where the weather is good and it’s legal to grow you’re more than likely going to have to cull at least 1 of the seedlings.
    Failure is an opportunity for improvement!!

      Howdy LBBandit I'm also growing in a 2x3. But mine is only 4-1/2 tall.
      To fill your space, consider a few things. Training is key. Go to the GWE website and look up the different training methods. I'm getting into ScrOG for my grows. I have two perfect size trellises that give me 2" on each side of the trellis. As long as I keep things trained within the trellis I know I can fit my two plants. I can also grow a 3' tall plant in a 2' height limit with simple training. There's a little more to it. Those are the basics. I believe GC is a sativa. Sativas tend to grow tall and lanky. Go to the website you bought your seeds from and see what they say about height. Mine is a simple tent. I don't have the filters and scrubbers and junk because I don't need them. They take away a lot of grow space.
      DWC tends to grow big plants. Consider that as well.
      Are the seeds regular, feminized, or autofeminized? There's a huge difference in the time it takes to grow. With the first two, you can have a long veg for big plants or a shorter veg with autofem. You can customize how big your plants can get. Flower when you want to. Unless they're autofem.
      You also need to understand our unwritten rule about weed and bud porn. Whip out your camera and show us what you have.

        Good question about regular vs. feminized vs. autoflower. If they’re regulars it’s gonna be a tough call to ditch a seedling so early.

      If you can, raise all 3 for a couple weeks and pick the strongest 2 and throw out or give away the 3rd plant. if you don't have a spot for a 3rd plant you could get a cup of soil and start it that way and give it away as a seedling.

        I just wanted to thank you all for your insight and great advice! It just pains me to not be unable to grow a third plant due to inadequate space. In response to gingerbread I will be performing scrog in order to maximize space. Also the seeds are feminized not auto. So I have some luxury in working with the height of the plant. I think funky has the right idea, but is it possible to yield more with two plants than one in a 3x2?

          I dont use a tent so I cant help there, I like the idea of giving the extra to a friend, and just maybe they can return the favor and give up a clone/plant to you!

            It's completely possible to grow more than two plants in your tent. Again, it all comes down to training. You can do a sea-of-green (SOG) where you have several smaller plants instead of a couple biggin's.

              Just giving you a picture this is 8 plants in a 4x4x8 tent. With some let to keep them as wide as the pots. They're over 20 inches now going to go another month or so and flip to 12 12. I have one more transplant to do from 3gallon to 5 gallons in the next few weeks. There's always a way to pack em in there. Giving away is a last resort here because I keep to myself, do my own thing and live in a small town. 2000 people max. Lots of people who think they're allll that.
              Vegging 4 aurora indica, waiting on seeds. Got eyes on a 4x8x8 tent.
