Hahaha, ok, strategy question.
The goal is to grow as much weed as I can before my landlady sells the house (lol), because when she does that, I might no longer have a place to grow.
So, I am starting 16 SIPs indoors under LED, and that is max capacity for the room.
They let you have 20 plants here, but the custom is to run 19 (in case someone gets too stoned raiding your weed, and cannot count, i guess... lol).
Since I have 16 indoors, I get 3 more. So...I thought about the roof.
It is a little bit cool here. It is something like 50F / 15C at night, and 68F / 20C in the day (+/- 2C or 5F, give or take). I can put a top plastic on while germinating to raise temps, but I would have to take it off shortly after that.
I learned, they do not do fully-enclosed greenhouses here, because it is too humid. If you grow outdoors you only put up an overhead plastic, but you leave it open for air circulation (to prevent mold). There is so much moisture in the air that anything else does not work.
I have space, but I do not know what size of CBD auto regular to select.
My question is, what is the maximum safe size of plant to choose so as not to outgrow a 5G SIP filled with supersoil?
They make all different "sizes" of CBD auto regulars (0.5m, 1m, 1.5m, 2m, 2.5m). The bigger they get, the longer they take (obviously).
For example, take Top Tao's
Blueberry Crystal (bought from a sponsor) is supposed to be bred for greenhouses, and the Blueberry is supposed to have some mold resistance. I thought I could try it.
(Lotta marketing hype, mon.)
TOP TAO SEEDS - BLUEBERRY CRYSTAL: FRUITY TOP RESIN PRODUCER
Although a mix of sativa, indica and ruderalis, Blueberry Crystal is a mostly-indica which shows in her densely-packed flowers and the easiness to grow her. There is only a hint of ruderalis in her genetics which means that her buds are developing very timely, after only 16 hours of light. Because of this trait, the females of this regular strain flower very fast and ripen early when you grow them outdoors. If you let her, the plant can reach a height of 1.5-2.5m. The life-cycle of Blueberry Crystal is also pleasantly short. You can look forward to a harvest in about 4-4.5 months after germination. At the later stage of flowering this Lady will show off gorgeous shades of burgundy and purple, turning the plant into a dazzling beauty and a true sight to behold!

My questions:
Haha, what does this mean?
There is only a hint of ruderalis in her genetics which means that her buds are developing very timely, after only 16 hours of light.
Does it mean I need to keep night interruptor light on her until I want her to flip?
Or what does it mean?
Also, is 250cm indoors too big for a SIP on the roof filled with Supersoil?
And if so, what would be about the maximum size I should target for a SIP on the cool roof?
(Or try it, and see what happens? Hahaha.)
The ideal outcome would be to let the largest plant possible grow until dry, and then take the mature seeds, and grow them out. And then we can adapt those seeds to the soil on the property, once we get there.
But if 250cm indoors is too big for a 5G SIP, then about what would be a good "normal" height to choose for a CBD auto regular, to make seeds?
Gracias.
