Hey all! Hypothetical.......

Let's just say you enter a contest for a million bucks to see who can grow the most weight on two plants. You're not allowed run CO2. To start, everyone gets the same strain and everyone gets two clones that are 3 nodes high. Everyone starts with the same single 600w Veg and Flower lamp in a 9 foot tall room. You get to choose nutes and everything else to raise the two beefiest ladies possible.

What kinds of techniques are you using in Veg and Flower to win the yield contest?

A key factor here is the light. A flat canopy won't get as even of light as a V or bowl shaped canopy.

Tomato cages will make it easier to train and maintain your plants. As you'll be able to rotate them. So for max yield you want to do haircuts. And training. And you might even want to have the pots on wheel casters. That makes it so you can turn them and rotate them as needed. Giving maximum TLC and timing the defoliate and lollipop phase. Keeping up on removing larf. And keeping pests under control. And the strains that yield the heaviest are usually not popular flavors. But it works. For yield per SQf. For max yield.

Most is removed below the net .I don’t do that.they are near even with ea other yes, but there is V at the top of every plant completely different to a Scrog.

After using all of the different. Methods. Tomato cages have been my favorite and lowest time spent method. Nets have made me rage more than once. If I was smart. I'd put my tent in the middle of the room too. So I could open all sides if needed.

I have 2 Greenpoint Rum Runners in a 3x4 SCROG. This is the 1st time for me using this method, although I have been growing several years now. I started 3 Autos and the 2 photo RR at the same time. This gave me 9 weeks of veg till the autos finished. The RR are now in their 4th week of flower. I seem to have done something right, nothing but a fairly even canopy about 6 to 8 inches deep and dense. Lots of nice flower tops wall to wall. I always grew 4 plants in the past for the volume of harvest. I can't say for sure now, but the way it looks I will at least beat the weight of 4 RR I have grown previously, if I don't screw it up. Letting them grow vertically in the past was very crowded and I usually harvested tops and then lower buds a week or so later to finish fatting under the new found light exposure. The way these are developing I believe the harvest will be 90% quality tops and 10% for the lower buds later. We'll see. I am very optimistic that I will get more from 2 plants in SCROG than 4 allowed to grow vertically as I have in the past. I know you would think that I would have done this sooner, having grown for several years, but I am growing medicine for my Bride who has spinal stenosis. I need the product to be good and plentiful. Cannabis has kept her from the surgeons knife and opiods, weed literally is the only thing that allows her to have a normal active life.
