Ok guys I know there will be a lot of haters but just here me out. I want to toss this idea around and see what people think.
Right now I run a scrog in the Uc, you can see the thread in the Uc section. Its about 192 sq ft. Which gives me 62 watts per sq ft on the screen. An idea was brought to my attention to screen the plant on 5 sides, top and four sides. This works out to about 92 sq ft per plant. Now I know genetics have a lot to do with it, right now I can hit 1.5 ounces per sq ft on my screen with 62 watts a sq ft. If I run 6 dedicated lights on each plant and position all the lights a specific way I can hit 65 watts a sq ft on 92 sq ft per plant. The screen must be completely filled, topped a bunch of times and in 50 gal buckets but the math says on 5 plants 460 sq ft at 65 watts sq ft would yield 690 ounces which is 8.6 per plant. 30 1000 watt lights on 5 plants. Sounds nuts but this is vertical growing on steroids. The yeild comes from sq ft not on ridiculous claims of 3 per light. What do you think?
