Your topic title is not very helping if you're looking for something else.

Yeah I'd love to grow a tree but it would be a big inddor setup needed if not doing outdors.

I plan to veg some big trees to put out in guerilla sites next year. I hope to veg from around March to May then put out fort MASSIVE buddage :)

I think Biddy Early can grow big and very thick stalks great for windy outdoors or holding massive yields

How big of a tree?

I grow AK-48 from seed with about a 5 week veg (20") and it finishes at almost 60" in a 3gal pot.,, I would imagine the AK-47 being similar.

The blurb of biddy early from Magus
"It will grow out to a classical Sativa Xmas tree with a height of approximately 1.8 to 2 meters.

Because of its early flowering and maturation, it's very well suited for open field cultivation in Holland, and areas with a similar climate. Of course it's also possible to grow Biddy Early with great results indoors under lights, but remaining mothers in a vegetative stage for a prolonged period, can be difficult, and in some cases even impossible. The majority of the plants will form red and purple colours if exposed to low temperatures, yet with some variation in the location and intensity of the discoloration. It has a sweet candy aroma and a powerful high, not recommended as a "day-time smoke", but still mild enough not to be considered a "party killer".

Flowering period: 50/60 days
Outdoor harvest (in Holland): Sept/Oct
Yield: medium/good
"

I grew Ak-47 in a 26 gal. home made planter, vegged for 10 weeks and had a 6'5" plant that yielded over 1 pound dry and trimmed.
 
PPP will def grow into some monsters.. Just about any Sativa or Sativa dominant plant will grow into a beast of a tree.. I've got some Chronic plants that are about 6 ft. tall right now. It aint even July Yet!

Damn Pops, I assume you used a 1000whps..?

Is the 26gal container a RubberMaid tub by any chance?

Nice.

No. These were home made planters made from rabbit wire and had ground cover cloth inside as a "condom" to keep soil in. I had 18 of them under 9 1K HPS. The Afghan Bullrider produced 19 oz. and the AK about 18. Had to tear down the 3rd grow due to security scare. Never went back to that style of growing, as I am too old to haul that much soil.

to name a couple, some strains just don't produce when grown big but these will for sure, the trick of trees is to either grow vertically and grow a big bushy 360 degree tree or grow horizontally and prune the hell out of the lower part of the plant and throw tons of light at the tops. Im not really sure which method is better, but I think vertical trees would be less work just because your not doing so much pruning, but horizontal trees look like giant bonsais which definitely has a wow effect.

I believe KC Brains strains should be taken into consideration... as far as I know they have an insane vigor and one of the breeder's goal is to create a strain that can grow 7 meters tall... I believe hence his strains should do well to grow trees

Genius! That's over one gram per watt. But it is a shitload of dirt. I think I'll stick to the 3gal pots...my back will thank me when I'm in my 40's lol. thanks Pops.
