    Hi if you are growing outside, and you want your plants to grow as small as posible, what shout u do smaller pots? less sun light? ( i know lowryders are the best 4 that) but i also have 5 Hindu Kush plants.

    There are several way to conceal pot.

    -You can train it as in LST.
    -You can top it and train it to look like a hedge and tie flowers and berries onto it so it doesn't look like pot.
    Cutting sunlight/growing in shade will result in a tall skinny plant with a few low-potency buds.

    6 hours of direct sunlight would be the minimum I would grow under for nice buds.

    Low Stress Training...

    It's where you tie the branches down by bending them, so then the leaves bend up towards light because of phototrophisms so you plant kind of would look like this:
    __\ / <---top flower
    | <---bent stem
    \|||/ <---pot

    So you'd end up with a wide, but short plant.

    Do a search on LST.

    There is another way.
    Marijuana outside begins to flower approx. 8/15 (and fiinishes 2 months later).
    So if you plant a seed in like say July 15, it would only have 1 month of veg before it starts to flower.

    Interesting... would the buds still be as plentiful and potent?

    As plentiful as what?
    As plentiful as a plant started in spring?
    Of course not. A pot plant started in spring will grow 7'--12' tall (untopped/untrained), one started in mid-July will grow maybe 3' tall.
    The buds should be as potent.
