Yup...I can continue this here:

8. Top side view. You can see here that you can see the base of the plant which means light will be able to penetrate through the foliage. Also you can see the top part of the plant wrapped somewhat horizontally to give the top of the plant more of a flatter surface. Not just a few stems are taking the best amount of light, its flattened out so more of the plant gets access to the best light. More light will be supplying the top 1/3 of the plant overall because of how it is wrapped/caged. Finding a way to get more light per inch of height on your plant is one of the most underrated secrets of increasing your yields. You can also unwrap this after a week or two and re wrap it again in a different way. I have found that yields skyrocket when this is done because your plants will see another angle of light. This mimics real life when the sun moves across the sky. When you change the angle of light on your plants they thrive because its what they are used to when outdoors.

My favorite thing about the poles is that they are adjustable in height. So when you want to lower your lights to give your plants access to the optimum amount of lumens then you can lower your poles accordingly and not have to raise your lights when your plant stakes are in the way of them. You don't miss out on those potential yields.

9. This is what a clean and organized room looks like full of Ultimate Plant Cages. It's a room which is much easier and fun to work in. Your in control of your plants instead of the other way around.

10. The end result. These plants are the end result of using the Ultimate Plant Cage. They have been de-foliated ready for trimming at this stage and you really see the size and the the 3 levels of growth. The upper 1/3 has the largest growth. The middle 1/3 is very solid and has great size. And the lower 1/3 which most people get zero growth with and neglect is producing solid buds.

In conclusion I feel that plant support is so overlooked. People spend all their money on lights and fans, etc (which are important), but they neglect their plants and supporting them the right way. Realistically, you are loosing out on an extra 10-30% yields just by not supporting your plants the right way. You might be old school, and be using the same old techniques that are working for you. But if you just tried one plant, or one tray you will see the difference. Try for yourself.

So that's it! Hope you've enjoyed this guide. If you follow these simple steps you will be able to increase your yields dramatically. It takes a little extra work and some thinking but that's all in the fun of it and its definitely worth it. I welcome thoughts, suggestions, criticisms, high fives, etc.

Cheers!
julius9 Reviewed by julius9 on . A way to increase yields by 10-30% I just spent a lot of time putting this together for you guys. A couple years ago I posted this about the ultimate plant cages: http://boards.cannabis.com/growing-information/196696-ultimate-plant-cage.html Since that time I've become an avid user of the products and highly recommend it to all my friends. It's about time I shared this info with you all so you can see what I've been doing these past years and can get the same results as me. I've seen increases of 10-30% on my yields by Rating: 5
