this is a theoretical question. that is all, just something i may be considering down the road. if u had a massive inside grow... i mean massive 5000+ plants what would be the most effecient way to maxamize available space and eventual yeild. SOG? tree? some type of teir system?

Im not sure how you pull off 5000+ trees so I think given your 5000+ figure that would require SOG with little veg. Not really any other way to do those numbers IMHO.

youd def. need a dedicated mother/veg area to take all those cuts and consistently have em on hand. youd need a huge area/warehouse to
partition rooms into how often you want yields (every two weeks, monthly,bi-monthly) to do a perpetual harvest. then put however many lights in each room to try to correspond w/ the yield. so if you wanted 5 lbs every month youd need about 4-5k in each partitioned room. Setup everything automated, probably flood and drain would be easiest once dialed. no veg time, most people throw em straight into flower once the cuts show roots. electricity would be a the biggest thing to cover up as i dont know how you can get past that w/o stealing which isnt cool. im definitely sure that sort of thing is something most people must work their way up to, whether its dialing in the right system to actually knowing how to grow everyhting to actually constructing everything and then choosing all the products youd want to use and make sure they work properly for what youd need em for. then being able to find the right people to do the work/construction and knowing what to tell em your doing etcc....just so much variables involved in that sort of op id think its hard to pull off properly w/o arousing suspicion. whos gonna trim it all? your friends? or atleast your supposed friends? there was an article once where k from trichome technologies (baddest fuckin growroom ever)
was talking about how he had a crane come out and shut the whole street down to install the $35000 exhaust/ventilation system, they asked him what the hell he told the people and he said he was simply making a welding/fabrication shop and wanted to be able to change the temps/humidity w/ a touch of a button. that guy has some balls..... hes also been growing forever as he seems to know lots about all sort of systems since hes tried most all of em....yeah, you just really need to know how to handle the situation and get everything done like clockwork. even just going to the hydro store to buy all that shit would be crazy!!!

5000 plants is a forsure drip system would flood the place a few times befor getting it all correct. but with the right expreince/money/place/BALLS/workers

can be done. but at that scale and money needed it wouldnt be worth it. you could set up 10. 20 light houses for that much.. but then agaIN y

100 7' Trees would definitely be ALOT easier to deal with than 5000 SOG'd plants...hell you'd be looking at keeping 100+ mothers to deliver those numbers of clones on a regular basis.

All of the purely commercial setups I've seen (12k and smaller) were based on bucket setups...you can get alot of plant in a 5 gallon bucket :wink: Give em a 1 month veg and a quality pheno and you're looking a 2lbs per tree with 1k over each of em. Plus with trees, you could actually have a possibility of staying under the 100 plant ceiling that brings MUCH harsher penalties.
