Mobile Indoor Vertical Grow Rack Systems for Cannabis Growing

How to Increase Yield to Meet Growing Demand

September 23rd, 2020 - 2 min read

What do you get when you mix a global pandemic, an economic downturn, and a series of extreme weather events? You get a lot of people trying to cope with anxiety and stress. And many people have had to cancel expensive vacations and nights out on the town, so they have money to literally burn — or bake into edibles, or massage onto sore joints.

It’s all led to unprecedented demand for cannabis. In Illinois, for example, recreational marijuana is a “breakout star” in a “hazy economic landscape,” according to CNN. Illinois sales of the drug topped 60 million dollars in the month of July alone, and sales tax revenues for the first half of 2020 were nearly twice the projected amount. Other states are reporting similar spikes in demand.

Indoor cannabis growers are always seeking ways to increase yield, but now it’s more important than ever.

“Our footprint is absolutely maximized. We’re using our space as efficiently as possible.”

The Best Way to Increase Cannabis Yield

Indoor commercial cannabis growers can increase yield with mobile vertical racking.

There’s no shortage of advice on how to increase yield, from pruning techniques to lighting. All that advice has merit, but the simplest, most direct route to higher yield is to increase the grow area in your facility.

So how do you get more grow area? You could build an addition, but that’s expensive. In many land-locked facilities expanding isn’t even an option. And in some states, indoor cannabis grow facilities are limited by square footage.

To get more canopy in your existing grow rooms, you need to optimize space horizontally, by eliminating empty aisles between tables. And you need to go vertical to add additional levels of plants. Spacesaver’s GROW Mobile System lets you do just that.
