While atmosphere's grow is not typical, most growers who followed in his path over at icmag forums, they started a thread devoted to strains that work with the 12/12 pole method.

For instance a 12/12 from seed with an AK48 produced just over an 1/2 oz.

And while this of course, isn't the 'zomg best way to grow'

It certainly seems plausible for the microgrower, or someone pressed for space.

It also seems nice since theres one main cola to harvest from.

A downside seems to be the amount of seeds you would need.

However, some strains have been reported to only produce about 1 gram of bud and the tree turning out little and bonsai-like.

Debates pursued on their forum as to whether it was the methodology that was flawed or the grower or even the strain.
