Screen of Green (Not SOG)

Screen of green

One of the techniques used in the cultivation of cannabis is referred to as screen of green or SCROG. This technique is so called because it involves training the plants to adapt to a wire mesh (similar in technique to an arbor). In so doing, one attains a great uniformity in the crop, and all plants attain near equal exposure to lighting. This is a system particularly adopted by hobby growers with limited height in their grow-area to grow big plants but not by commercial grow operations, because it is very labor intensive to train the plants to the screen, and requires an extended vegetative phase, although it allows for very efficient light use. This method also causes stems to grow much stronger and be able to bear more fruit.

also i suggest you stop making smart arse remarks, psyclone. i saw ya little stab in the other thread b4 it was edited. no need for it really mate. only reason i came on this site was to help share the wealth. i figured i could help a few ppl get started growing their own, and ditching the dealer. sorry if it pisses you off that i know more about weed and growing it than you do, but that's no reason to start shit. i suggest you sort it out mate. bear in mind my prescence here is simply to help ppl such as yaself. :D thankyou

You need to have an account with Imageshack or Photobucket. Basically a free site that will let upload photos (and sometimes video) so you can post the URL here.
