Grow Room How to keep my autos short?

[NoviceProfessor]

Using a tent for the first time. It's 32"x32"x63"
Considering I have to have space at the top for lights and filter and my 3 gallon pots are close to a foot tall from the bottom, 63 inches isn't a lot to work with.

Some of my favorite plants from past grows have been ones that stayed short, stocky and dense.
What are some ways I can at least attempt to keep them short, without specifically searching out short strains?

Food for thought: You can always put the fan/filter outside the tent if you have a window to crack open for fresh air.

Small pot = small plant.

1. Smaller pots
2. Low stress training
3. Start your bloom feeds a little earlier

Thanks. I did indeed just start my bloom feedings earlier than I normally would. I'm starting to attempt LST for the first time.
I've been considering going with 2 gallon pots instead of 3 next time...
