what if you build a box? put a big plant below it. just 1 plant. top it and train it so it grows thru the bottom of 2 separate boxes. have each side sealed separately. with enough veg time you could get 2 nice main stalks. 1 growing individual branches in each box. you could maybe start by vegging both sides. then put 1 side on 12/12. leave the other side on 18/6 and continue to veg. you will have to take cuttings from the veg side for the first month then let it regrow those sites for the second month. by this time the 12/12 side should be finished flowering. harvest that side leaving the leaves and branches and only remove the buds. put it back on 18/6. now flip the second side to 12/12 and repeat. :mrgreen: ........

Bloody hell...only 2 hours ago I was just thinking of something similar (well, ok - not QUITE the same, but I like the idea of this one!) HEY - just think if you did the whole "grafting" thing like they do to get pears growing on apple trees and stuff with it...hell, just think of the CLONES you could get from topping like that! Top once then you get 2 main stems which you can LST, then top/take a clone from the end of the 2 branches, THEN all the budsites grow up towards the light, more clones, etc.

God I just thought of/realised that one...ok, I know everyone already knows about it but it could work bloody brilliantly if you had the space (I took clones about a month ago just before flowering and now I've got a 2-prong fork instead of a single one...my only time topping I screwed up - glad to see I can ACTUALLY get it to work!) - having said that, with only 1 plant and root ball being kept alive for god-knows how long, it'd be a HELLUVA loss if you effed it up!

Well I once seen a pic of a plant by a street light just kidding that has been said like a hundred times in this thread lol!

I do have something to add to this that I think is important and missed in every post!

The type of plant will have allot to do with this I think a pure sativa will work best for this as the farther you go from the equator the less effect photo period has on a plant eg auto strains they are from the north and they would not work well with this!!!

So in short I think a staiva or mostly sativa is best for this experiment!!

Cool idea and what is life without learning!

the "fish grow" is called aquaponics and it works very well, in my experience. i've moved recently and started using soil instead and growth in all stages seems much slower. I used a hand feeding method as well as an auto bucket. The plants and the fish really enjoyed eachother. <3

I'm looking for it, but there is a youtube video of a mother plant with several diffrent strains grafted on, and was being suggested for those that can grow legal but are restricted to how many plants...

i agree 100% on the staiva
