5 Tips to Maximize Your Indoor Garden Yield

 

Yield- that one thing indoor gardeners put all the efforts after. Apart from the regular chores regarding environment control, harvesting and maintenance, there are some crucial things to do that might boost the yield magically.

Follow this list of activities in order to maximize your indoor gardening yield.

 

Use Lights with More Intensity

The intensity of your indoor growing light has a direct role to play in the density of the buds and yield. As light is essentially the ‘food’ for the plants, turning light intensity higher will boost the photosynthesis and so does the yield.

But don’t overdo the light intensity during every stage of growth. Also, ensure that the increased light is uniformly distributed throughout all layers and ages of plants.

 

Manipulate The Growth of Your Plants

Right from the vegetative stage, you can put a firm control on the growth and height of the plants. The bookish name of this control is ‘plant training’.

Putting them all at a particular height ensures a top-notch light distribution, as well as healthier harvests. Typically, there are three sorts of grow plant training styles that are in practice-

 

  1. Screen of green (SOG).
  2. Sea of green (SCrog)
  3. Bush-style training.

 

In each of the plants, there are merits and demerits. So, you’ve to care watchful while selecting the right training style for the right strain.

 

Increase CO2 Intensity During Flowering

It’s a quite unfamiliar trick among growers that the level of CO2 at some particular point of the growth process might boost the yield to a great extent. Especially while it’s at the flowering stage, increasing the CO2 level works as a passive reason for plants stretching their bellies.

What it results into is, plants are able to eat more food and produces healthier harvests. And this increment of CO2 is a result of increased light level that the plants can intake as ‘food’.

 

Don’t Compromise with Proper HVAC

HVAC, as you know, stands for humidity, ventilation and air conditioning. If we focus our concern into indoor gardening, each of these three aspects are equally important. A slight deviation in the standard value of these environmental factors might ruin, damage or lower down the yield count.

Controlling humidity level requires nothing but the best dehumidifier for grow tent or room. To put a control on the ventilation, ensure a properly sized intake and exhaust fan. And to put control on the air conditioning, there are air conditioners and heaters in the market to choose from.

 

Take Immediate Actions on Diseases

It’s nearly impossible to say that your indoor garden will never catch up diseases. Starting from weak strain, low maintenance, improper environment and so on, there can be diseases at any stage of the grow.

As a smart grower, it’s imperative to have a sharp eye on the buds and leaves for any symptoms that’s not usual. Once found, take immediate actions to prevent and cure it for good.
