I’ve asked this question before and i know there is not exact answer so I am hoping for a little speculation from the experts. If just harvested some of my first grow and i notice the bottom of the plant was really useless. I see why the SOG would be so desirable. So I want to try it. what i want to know is how tall should i let my clone get before flowering to get 1 ounce per plant(If that’s possible). I intend to trim the bottom 1/3 of the plant at week 1 and three and i hopefully will harvest on big cola at least an ounce. Any suggestions? Also it will be a 600 watt in soil and white widow. Another questioni recorded the height at flowering of my last grow. I started flowering some of them at 6 inches and others at 10. If i weigh the cola of a finished plant will that give me an indication of what to expect on plants that i intend to grow SOg method. Top cola only? or will it be bigger or smaller?

Well for starters the more plants you put in a room the less air will move around and the more c02 they will soak up. So its not a foolproof way of knowing how much you will get per plant. There are variables at play here remember. I usually flip my plants at 12-14 inches and get just over an ounce per plant. I do not trim unless I see dying leafs. There are many reasons for this. One being that trimming puts your plant into shock and you don't want to waste valuable budding time by shocking your baby's. And second I have noticed that plants with more bio-mass i.e foliage seem to produce more bud. More leaves = more light soaked up which in turn makes the plant produce more sugars that it needs to produce more flowers or buds. Check my sog out if you wanna see what it turns out like. But yea I hope that helps a tad bit. Keep me posted. []Deace!
