Sea of Green

The sea of green is the best way to keep in control of a larger amount of plants.

Seedism's Milk strain looks quite impressive in a sea of green.

The goal of a sea of green is to keep all your plants at the same height, this way they will get the best light distribution.

In my Sea of Green example I use a strain called Skunk#1, when using any other type of Cannabis you need to adjust your own schedule to the flowering period that particular strain needs..

The ultimate goal of a SOG is to save time and increase the frequency you harvest.

You can grow from 9 to 36 plants per square meter and call it a sea of green, you just have to adjust the growth cycle to the amount of plants.

A sea of green is a larger number of Cannabis plants growing side by side while maintaining a uniform height.

The sea of green technique (SOG) is used to ensure constant quick crops and requires both a grow and a flowering area.

This SOG technique requires a lot of plants (up to 25 plants/mtr) in your grow area.

Big plants vs small plants.

Most growers like to grow bigger plants because they can produce more grams per plant, but the sea of green calculates not grams per plant but grams per meter or square footage of grow space.

The overall yield should be the same no matter how many plants you grow, as long as you use all the space available under your lights.

Short grow cycle.

By using a large number of smaller plants you can drastically reducing the vegetative cycle, which translates in more harvests each year.

The most efficient SOG growers pre-grow their new clones or seeds before harvesting the ones in the flowering cycle.

By dividing their total dedicated grow space into two seperate areas, one to grow their plants and one for their flowering cycle, they could start flowering straight after every harvest.

Planning ahead is the key to managing an efficient sea of green operation.

Here is an example:
In this example I will use a strain called Skunk#1, which has a flowering period of around 7-8 weeks.

first I have to make a motherplant so that I can place 25 clones of the Skunk#1 in a 3ft. square flowering space, powered by a 400 watt HPS light.

After the initial growth and selecting the right motherplant for clones in my seperate grow area, my first Skunk#1 plants are ready for their flowering cycle.

I know that the flowering cycle should take around 7-8 weeks, and that my new clones have to be ready before that so that I can continue the flowering cycle.

In that time I need to make new clones, they will need up to 14 days to grow roots, and then they will need up to 3 weeks of pre-vegetative growth before they are ready for their flowering period.

This means that approximately 5 weeks before harvesting my flowering plants I have to start making at least 25 new Skunk#1 clones.
