hm, interesting question.

I have to say it wouldnt work, at least not for more than a few weeks. Hormones and signaling molecules are produced in a plant during flowering, and they are mobile....so even if you had the division of branches right down at the collar of the plant, eventually the other side would get the 'signal' that it's supposed to be flowering, and would start flowering (theoretically).

are you going to do this? i'm quite curious to see the result of this...please keep us posted!

I think I wanna build a box use same plants but metal halide and hps on different sides but flower the whole plant and see what the difference in bud and weight is.

- I would have to say that the HPS side would definitely give you better buds and more weight, as the HPS light spectrum (warm - red/orange) is specifically targeted at flowering while the MH is in a light spectrum(cool - blue) that promotes vegging far better than flowering. It is possible to flower under MH or even veg under HPS but there is a reason why people switch to HPS for flowering after using MH for vegging. I would think you would just be cutting down on your harvest and quality on the MH side, so if I were you I wouldn't waste half of a good plant. no offence, just my 2 cents.

- As to the origional thread... Who knows? I would think that what one person said about the hormones within the plant limiting the amount of time that one side could be vegged while the other is flowered might hold true, but it could be possible for awhile... if anyone can do it, its YOU, boss! don't you have a plant with branches from like 4 different strains grafted onto it? If you can do that, you can probably do almost anything, lol. You ever run faster than a speeding bullet? Are you more powerful than a locomotive? Perhaps you've leapt a tall building in a single bound?
I know that sounds sarcastic, but I'm not trying to be. This guy seriously is a superhero when it comes to this shit :blsmoke:

I have seen a plant that one side flowered and the other stayed in veg because a street light shined on one side at night.

i would take any odds that this will work, assuming fdd does it right.

this would be the ultimate test of a few different lighting systems. CFL vs T5 vs MH vs HPS on ONE PLANT!

just do it dot com.

this is the link loudblunts gave me and the way Im gonna start force flowering soon. Actually going to get the trashcan here in bout 30mins.
International Cannagraphic Magazine Forums - YUKONS OUTDOOR TRASH CAN SCROG

why dont you take 2 trash cans and cut holes in them, inset topped and train(ed) plant, light proof the holes you cut and cover each side according to what you want it to do. Leave the veg side open for 24hrs a day and cover one side with a lid for 12/12. Do a harvest and switch it around, then try to do it again?
seems easier to do than the box idea....

That thrash can scrog is super stealth, any one could have one of those just sitting on thier patio and no one would even know. Super good idea.

dunno what Im going to do in it as of the moment. I know Im going to force flower some Hijack inside one somehow.:hump:
I take pics of the can and dirt.

oh yeah and a hitchiking inchworm that was on me hat when I came back inside yesterday






Im going to bury mine out in a location that gets pretty good sun. Not putting all that foil shit in there cause thats just ghetto and would attract attention from the air (not to mention burn my plants:evil:).

gotta get my ass off here and go dig a massive hole....:wall::mad::wall:

Im finding out the hard way that its a lot of work but im burying mine....Started about 45 mins ago and Im almost halfway there. Im got tired though, suns coming up higher in the sky now and Im pretty damn high myself.lol I found somebody with some indica left over from their last grow yesterday which is rare where I stay @. I had bad insomnia last night and I could have smoked untill I passed out but i didnt wanna smoke all my bud:-| So I suffered through the boredom and stayed up. Shits kicking my ass htis morning now tho. lol
Glad this can is close enough to put rock salt in someones ass if they mess with it.
Someones dog is picking on mine too. Last weeek I had a pup come home from the woods with a penny sized hole through her ear and this morning one came back from their morning run with a 2 inch gash in her ear 9but @ leat not all the way through like last time). God help whatever it is if they r un into it when all 5 of them are together. They are like a little family fighting machine.
