Because of this, K-Train is a great candidate for the Screen of Green method. It requires placing a screen above the current canopy and weaving the branches into the net. It not only provides support but also creates more budding sites. Moreover, the even light distribution encourages higher yields.

K-Train will need to be topped early when cultivated indoors. As alluded to earlier, it is a tall plant that will continue to stretch throughout the flowering period. It can cramp up the space as well as interfere with light and air distribution among the lower nodes. Thinning it out will also improve the latter. Regardless, after 7 to 9 weeks, it will flower at least 700 to 800 grams of buds per square meter.

Another way to improve output is employing a hydroponics setup. It delivers nutrients directly to the roots, rushing growth and development. Soil, however, brings out its full flavors. Because of this, many growers prefer to cultivate K-Train in gardens or farms it can also absorb the sun. Outdoors, it blossoms from the last week of September to the middle of October yielding up to 1,000 grams of buds per plant.
