wow that does sound good. To bad its winter and I am restricted to indoor grow only
LST=low stress training; bending the plant over ~90 degrees and then continually running it around in a circular pattern to force the branches to start growing up producing many more budding sites.

SOG=sea of green; the method of taking freshly rooted clones and (for the most part i believe) putting them straight into flower. the concept is to keep a nice even canopy for efficency. you harvest many small plants instead of a few large ones. best when used with a perpetual harvest.

ScROG=screen of green, a derivative of the SOG method in which you grow the plant to a screen (chicken wire etc) set at a predetermined height. you use the screen to "run" the plants branches, weaving them in and out of the screen, using the technique to give the most light to budding sites.

sorry of my definitions are not precise. i'm a noob!
