so i had this idea for a space saving high yield low stress grow

[deesvee]

so what you need to do is build a custom tomatoe stand that funnels out as it goes allowing for maximum light coverage and space conservation
side not i'd recommend lollipopping


please let me know what you think

Isn't that scrog?

 

[deesvee]

i dont think so srog is when you drop a screen or a net over it to stunt upward growth this allows maximum veg and no netting or screens. this is more related lst like this but more stretched out

the gray parts on my diagram are metal like a tomatoe stand and the plants are tied to it

That's pretty cool! I dig it!

ds like a spiral a plant pot with upside down cone type of mesh and twine the plant round

lst may wokr may now bt i never done it

There's an old thread around with an lst grow that spirals like that. But yours seems to climb as it spirals, this one stayed at "ground" level (even though it was in dwc). It was 2 or 3 plants that covered at least a 5x5 area. No question a more horizontal than vertical grow can yield more.

ha thanks your grow seems to be at a good start what are you using for reflection?
you should check out how my first hydro opp is going https://www.rollitup.org/hydroponics-aeroponics/515015-first-hydro-opp.html

yah i saw that thread it was a bit of an inspiration to me i'm planning on starting my test grow with this technique after i harvest my first yield

[drolove]

Do it! And post lots of pics for us :d

 

[deesvee]

will do haha i'm really excited for the grow i was able to get my hands on some old school haze x skunk#1 if you wanna see how my first opp is going check out my link

A buddy of mine does this and gets a pound per plant but, it's like a 3 month veg

 

[Guitar guy]

I thought of this a while ago. Might try it in a few grows. I mean, if ya look at it, it does seem like a really great idea. When you analyze it though, the buds up top are going to get so big, they will block the light from the lower buds, essentially rendering this as effective as an untrimmed SCROG. No doubt it could be built upon and further refined though. For example, create a slanted cage like this / and tie the plant up to that. It won't save vertical space, but it will allow the light to hit each and every bud site, and there will be no chopping required to the plant... although advanced grow techniques would likely increase yield.

Sorry for wall of text

if that the case the nugs can be tied to back to the frame
