Q
How do you control its height indoors?
A
I top at least twice and use a SCROG net; that keeps the canopy even and limits vertical stretch.

About Dr Grinspoon
Dr Grinspoon is a sativa heirloom prized for a clear, creative head high and distinct upward growth. It flowers slowly compared with many modern strains, requiring 12–14 weeks to mature and rewarding patient growers with an energetic, cerebral effect. In cooler regions such as Aberdeen growers should use sheltered sites or greenhouse space and employ training to manage height. This variety suits those who value classic sativa structure and terpene-driven flavour over rapid finish or heavy yields.
Grow Difficulty:
It sits at a moderate difficulty level and is not the easiest choice for absolute beginners, especially in cool Highland growing conditions. Attention to airflow, training and feed will reward growers with solid flower development.
Flowering Time:
Flowering runs long compared with many modern hybrids, typically finishing in 12 to 14 weeks. Allow the full cycle rather than forcing an early harvest to get the best cannabinoid and terpene development.
Yield:
Yields are moderate and can be improved with attentive training and structure control. Outdoors it can produce respectable results when grown in a protected, sunny site.
Height:
Plants are tall and airy with long colas and spaced nodes, often needing training to control vertical stretch. Indoors you must plan for height management or expect vigorous upward growth.
Environment:
Indoors it benefits from low-stress training and works well in compact indoor cannabis gardens when height is controlled, with growers in Aberdeen using SCROG and topping to keep size down. Outdoors in Aberdeen it will reach its full stature and needs shelter from wind and rain.
Climate:
Growing Dr Grinspoon in Aberdeen requires planning around the cool Highland growing conditions and shorter, cooler summers. Use of greenhouses, polytunnels or sheltered microclimates helps mitigate cold nights and late-season rain.
