Ah yes, that's certainly a key, but there are many other factors as well, or so my cousin informed me. Strength, duration, and consistence of lighting is critical. It's also very important that the plants make no physical contact with each other (in the quest for quantity). Did you know that these infernal weeds can actually change sex when confronted with an opportunity? Physical contact with other plants apparently spawns that opportunity.
