Indoor Marijuana Growing - Vertical or Horizontal?


Indoor marijuana growers have many methods of soil growing. The most common of these are naturally, using low - stress straining ( LST ), or the sea of green ( SOG), screen of green ( SCROG), and supercropping.

Some growers have plenty of indoor room, and will let the plants develop naturally, to the height and width that nature intended. These plants reach their full potential in a matter of weeks, with top colas and/or side colas promoted by the marijuana`s unstunted natural growth. This method of growing is known as "nature`s way".

Low - stress training ( LST) is used when height must be kept at a minimum. The marijuana plant is trained to lie over on its side at an early age, with each successive stem trained in the same fashion. This method produces a low-lying, luxurious plant, with increased bud production due to the light reaching into the sides of the plant as well as the top.

The sea of green ( SOG) method is used for rapid flowering when lack of height and wattage are a major concern for the grower. Marijuana clones are planted closely together, vegetating time is short, and the plants are pushed into flowering and bud production while they are relatively small. This is an effective method of growing, and when the lighting is adequate the yields are generally good.

The screen of green ( SCROG) method is also used when height and wattage are a consideration. A screen, usually of netting, screenwire or chickenwire, is attached at a desired height above the plants. This allows the growing marijuana plants to begin to grow horizontally after reaching the height limit, thus keeping the canopy, or height, at an even level, which allows consistent light penetration into the growing plants. Many growers have a consistent high yield using this method.

Supercropping is an easy growth - training method for marijuana growers. This is simply cutting off the top of the main stem several times during its vegetative growth, leaving approximately 10% of the stem intact each time. This method induces the plant to generate the growth of additional side shoots, which in turn increases the overall bud production. This is a favorite method of many growers, due to the almost - guaranteed increased yields.

Whether you grow your marijuana plants strictly by nature`s way, or must use some method of plant - training, marijuana growing may be a successful venture with a consistent pleasing yield. Some growers use these methods out of necessity, while others choose to experiment with their grow out of sheer curiosity.

Time and trial is your most effective research. After trying several different types of grows, you will find the one that works best for you.
J DOG 6000 Reviewed by J DOG 6000 on . Single Plant SCROG Grow.....Good Idea? Hey everyone. My baby is about 5 feet tall now and has that christmas tree type look to her. I want to put her in the flowering room and make an SCROG, but i was wondering if i would have needed to do that when she was Veggin or if i will still work. Also, if it is cool to make the SCROG grow in flowering, should i just put her under the screen (bent sideways)? or should i pull the little white hair-balls up through the screens holes to give her a head start? Any and all input would be great. Rating: 5
