We have been using a combination of topping, LST, and ScrOG principles to maximize the use of light footprints, create an even canopy, and reduce plant numbers without sacrificing production.

Certainly some might think that indicas are less suited for this blend of techniques than sativas, but knowing how the strain grows coupled with some experience in these techniques makes the combination a winner in my eyes.
TruElements Reviewed by TruElements on . To top & train, or not? Does anyone top & train to get their plants to spread out & encompass more square footage while keeping more colas at an even height? Worthwhile, or simply adding more cycle time w/o much greater benefits (yield)? And does anyone know, by increasing length of the vegetative cycle, does it stress the plants unduly, and are there any detrimental changes to the plants' physiology? Rating: 5
