SOG, SCROG or ? on a Commercial Scale

Greetings Nags,

I am wondering if your site uses actual ScrOG or just trellises as a technique?

Traditional Screen of Green (SCROG) involves tucking each branch underneath the screen for a nearly horizontal canopy. Trellises nets are typically hung above the plant simply to support heavily laden budding branches. (I know that you know this already).

The reason I ask is that Scrogging as I’ve understood it requires a ton of time and attention to daily adjustments during the entire stretch and it is hard to imagine that it would pay off in a production facility such as yours.

On the other hand, I bet you could use a very specific HST pruning method such as described in this thread to significantly increase yield in a cost effective manner?

My friend @bu2b coaxed almost a pound per plant out of his plants on a pretty regular basis with his program and all training is finished in just a few weeks when the plants are still small.
