Hey Team!
I wanted to check in with our side-by-side growers, and share what my harvest looked like using a Cannacage and a control.
Both plants are the same strain from seed (Tangie) from @cropkingseeds
Same environment (78F +/-55RH)
Same nutrient feed (mainly roots organic)
Same pot size (6 gallon)
The control plant had a singular bottoming session and was never topped, trained or pruned in any way. The Cannacage plant was topped once.
In comparing the control to the Cannacage, the control had 28 shoots/branches and the Cannacage produced 82 shoots! Doing the math, the Cannacage produced 2.92x the shoot growth when compared to the control!
Similarly with the yield, the cannacage produced 1.76x as much bud as the control, or a 76.255% increase totaling just over ~3/4 of a pound!! WOO!! With my set up I was able to produce as much as 6 plants with only 2 plants in this most recent harvest. My watering time was also cut down by 75% with watering everything by hand. I also used ~75% less nutrients by only having to water 2 plants instead of 6.
To all of the growers here, do you have any pieces of data you could extrapolate before harvest? Are you keeping your canopy even? With your current setup, are you watering more/less? About how long do you spend pruning the plant a week comparatively to other plant maintenance in your garden? What are your overall thoughts and points of feedback? Open to any and all points of criticism!
