Growing marijuana indoors, growers need to improve efficency not only to get better yields, it is important to save money in every cycle. Sea of Green technique allows users to save money in electricity thanks to a increased number of plants used (with less vegetation phase days). SOG technique is based on a higher amount of plants per each square meter lighted.
What does Sea of Green (SOG) means
Sea of Green technique is based on increasing the number of plants per squared meter to, once they grow, get a huge green mass covering all spaces. Sea of Green gardens usually use a square distribution with same lines and columns.
Advantages of Sea of Green technique
Sea of Green technique is useful, indoors, to improve yield as well as save money on electricity. It doesn't matter if using seeds or clones, SOG growth will save us days of vege hours (18h of light per day). In these type of growth, each plant is going to cover surrounding area in few days. Sea of green crops, usually save probems at the end of the cycle: growers get more buds with less volume (comparing with SCROG techniques).
Tips for Sea of Green gardens
Growers using SOG techniques should act depending on plant's height:
- Tall plants need a low branches cleaning once they are flowering to force plants produce buds on its top (most lighted surface).
-
Shorter plants should be "cleant", but not as much: if the light is covering all the plant maybe it is better to let cut few branches to keep options for a good yielding.
