Is using the SOG method a good idea in a 3.5 foot tall box?

  1. My box is 2x2x3.5 I want to grow three plants or less. But I know the height will be restricting. Is the SOG method a good idea to still get a good yield from this small space??
     
  2. In my opinion, the only thing a grow box that size is good for is starting seeds or rooting clones.

  4. What if I made it 5.5 feet high ??
     
  5. Sorry, I never checked back, must have replied while stoned. 5.5 ft would definitely do it for SCROG and lights and fan as long as you kept the screen as low as you can while being able to work under there if you need to.

  6. SOG should work as well, since you flower right away, but as far as I'm aware you need a decent amount of plants/m2 and a good horizontal space for it to make yield and economy (cost/amt. yielded) sense over other methods. If you throw a few in there and SCROG, it'll probably be cheaper than SOG, and could even maybe be possible with a 3.5 ft space.

    Unless you have access to clones you're better off using scrog. I have the same size box with a 250w hps, one plant is more than enough to fill out that area. Here is what a one plant scrog looks like in a 2x2 when it's in full flower: http://i.imgur.com/ic6KjKA.jpg
     
  8. o_O Seriously that from a 250w HPS?
