I decided to give this mega cropping technique a shot myself. Although I was skeptical initially, after seeing the results so far I'm intrigued by this advanced growing technique.

I decided to use 15 gallon pots. Will shoot a pic in a bit.

Lol, looks like you have a metal tray full of coco, try using a larger plastic tray/pot
And space the plants out even

I think its a good ideal, if he would have started off in smaller single pots waited till the plants where 2" high, all females, space them even in the large pots and flower

there would be a lot of growers on wanting to give it a go

Yup, we figured that out also. Now were planting them in 2 liter containers. I will post pics in a few moments
 
Here are a few shots of the seedlings, plus new batch for perpetual harvest went in a few days ago. Love that the buds are packing on weight now.

looking really good mrblazington :)
love the bud shoots, the plants in the single pots are look good but a little stretched, maybe good if you can lift the plants a few more inches

Yea i agree, they did stretch alittle but for the most part have stopped. I really need to get a new light for the seedlings. There under a 120 watt blue spectrum bulb. (Like a flood light) they seem to like it. But id prefer a t5 and a seperate room for them to start in.

Sorry if I missed it, what are you using for nutes? The worms will not like anything other than organic. Also re-reading the post and thinking there is no way you will get 2 ounces from a 12/12 grow per plant but I could be way wrong. If you do I'll have to revisit my light and plant cycle schedule lol.
There's a thread on here where a guy produced way more than 2 zones with 12/12 from seed. I used to know the guys screen name but its been a good minute since I've seen it. I'll try to find it for you. You will be amazed.

Great work here bro. Love what your doing. You had a high ratio of females more than I've seen a lot of people pop reg beans. Maybe I need to do this so I can get a lot of females out of my packs lol.

Im using an old school method of mega cropping. Im really excited to see how this turns out.
Short or no veg time and full 12/12 from seedling. Ive read about this metgod being used and being able to yeild up to 2 ounces per plant.
The setup is basically many small plants with smaller yeilds, but overall less time inbetween grows. Some as short as 11 weeks.
Because the seedlings or clones are put straight into flower, they dont have time to form many, if any side branches, so it uses all its energy to stretch and fill out. Large fat colas. Some manicuring is required to keep them trained, but most wnt ever need to be trimmed up. Excellent light penetration allows for maximum coverage.
Ive seen first hand how this method will work and i hope to hear from other growers who have grown this way.
I will post pics of my grow here ever few days to show growth.
Here is a pic from just this morning.View attachment 3212330
I've grown seedling to flower very successfully. Three 8-plant cycles in a perpetual, harvesting 8 plants and replacing with another 8 every three weeks. My 12/12 sig thread has details. I grew in 2L Coke bottles. Largest yield I got from a single plant was just under an ounce, my average was 12 grams dried per plant. Jack Herer is spectacular for this setup, as it naturally grows with only one cola.

No mega cropping though... I haven't even heard that term before.

Really? Ill have to check out your thread. This is the first time i have done the 2L bottle thing.

And the term "mega cropping" was used by a few friends of mine to define the multi plant per pot growing. Its not a real term i dont think.

Thanks for all the positive comments tho. I appreciate growers who help.

Will post pics of the grow tonight, stay tuned.
 
Here are a few shots of the tent this evening. I recently harvested the two Skunk#2xGDP, ill have pics of that when its dry.
I wont be doing another multi plant Grow, just because I don't believe that they get equal amounts of nutrients and I feel that when 1 is lacking and have a deficiency its harder to treat because it's in 1 group pot.
However i will be using the 2L method, i find that its very useful for this type of grow.

The larger plants are at day 48, and have another two to three weeks left.CAM01762.jpgCAM01755.jpg CAM01756.jpg CAM01757.jpg CAM01763.jpg CAM01767.jpg CAM01766.jpg
 
So after harvest I noticed that my buds aren't as big as I would like them to be anybody have any tips on how I can pack on the way in the last few weeks of flower?
