Anyways, if you have height restrictions - scrog is it.
if you have a small space - scrog is it.
if you want the minimum plant numbers with maximum yields - scrog is it.
CFL, fluoro, MH, HPS, doesnt matter - scrog is it.
who wouldn't want a perfectly even canopy full of buds? you never have to worry about your whole plant, or side branches snapping because they are too heavy...
I think High Density SOG is the way to go, SCROG is great too when worried about plant numbers but here in Cali most counties with the 6-12 plant limit I've heard can have 10sq ft of canopy or 6 mature plants... So with that I would have to go with HD SOG with 12-16 plants per square foot like DrBud taught me to do and pull 7-21g a plant cuz seeing him pull 1lb from 420w of CFL's is inspiration like a motherfucker!!! I was inspired first by his 2sq ft cab with 210w and have been able to duplicate his setup and make it work for me like he said it would... Plus harvest just tops of primo cannabis every week is wonderful!!! SCROG inferior??? nah it's a great method too but a SOG turns over more bud and when working with square ft instead of plant numbers..shit I can pack 36 of my girls in 2.5 sq ft and can fit 4 of those cabs in my 10 sq ft and lets say 7g each plant gives me 252g per cab with a total of 36oz!!! so I can pull 2lbs in 2months in 10sq ft under CFL's with a shit load of plants tho lol and yea I'm ramblin on go HD SOG!!!!
yeah i read the thread and i never saw a pic of the budds yield..i too want to know this...Another drbud fan. Me too...
I am not a member there and so never could see his yields and such. Can you throw me a bone with pics I can't get to and numbers on that? If you aren't a member it seems it doesn't give you page 8 and beyond.
I always wondered if that would pull a pound if it were full.
90 days to make 2 lbs using 2kw of light is not efficient. You are getting .15 gram per watt, per 30 days. That math assumes you use the 2kw the whole 90 days. I will assume you use less for veg, so the gpw ratio is probably a bit higher. Nonetheless, you should try to get much higher than that.i could do a 1 lb plant in 3 months from seed... right now i basically have 2 of those, each has its own 1K bulb - i'll get accurate harvest weight this time, but i pretty consistently pull 1 lb per 1KW per 3 months in my SCROG... its a small closet with 2KW though
i dont like the high plant numbers, and i also only have 1 room to grow in![]()
