I scrogged my first plant, it was flowered in an Ebb n Flow setup in my tent.

I used LST and super cropping tech to control the top of my subsequent plants flowered.

I use wires to pull the plant apart and if needed to hold a branch or two till they set in a position of my choosing.

I figure as a beginner (4th plant flowering) I still have lots to learn.

It seems easier to have one strain because this Sativa uses less Nutes, a lower PPM than
My first which was a bag seed Indica.
I saved a cut of that as well, The Indica clone is tucked away in my Veg.

I still don't do more than a weekly flush of my franken Hempy container.

Plant is in Rock Wool, bucket has 1/4" holes 6" on center 2" inches from the bottom.

The bucket is Filled with Hydroton to just above holes , than I place the rock wool in and cover with Hydroton.

No perlite or vermiculite....

I have done three plants in this Franken Hempy system.

It works for me and the Hydroton is reusable by just removing plant roots and letting the Hydroton dry out.

While I agree that monocrops are better (though I personally run a multistrain perpetual) I don't think it's optimal to limit yourself to one plant in flower because you can cut veg time considerably by having more smaller plants which means faster turn around. I find right around 2sqft/plant seems like a good balance between low plant count, yield, and veg time.

I am happy flowering one at a time for now.
I trade mine for the for the flavor of the month locally.
I also grow a tad more than I smoke so I'm just fine.
I am finding my 3x3 tent a little small, I want to upgrade to a 4x4 square over 6' tall.
I have a 600 watt ballast and bulb ready to swap w my 400 for a larger tent.
I would love to expand but I am holding off for a while till I get the
Nutes/PH/ dry/cure all balanced. For this strain.
Bless,
DZ

My temps run over 95 degrees w the 600 even with a 6" inline sucking out hot Air and a 4" inline also drawing air out at the bottom.
My temps with this setup run 79-82,RH 54-57.
The overall volume of a 4x4x7 tent would fit the 600 better IMHO.
Mine is 3x3x6

Got some more beautiful pictures for you all.

Starting with the AUTO Sugar mango RYDER.

Firstly this plant really lives up to the sugar name both with THC production and the sweetness to the buds.

Anyway here are some pics from last night.

My 6" pulls air thru the hood, it's rated 400 CFM.
My 4" pulls air from the tent at 160 CFM.
I never trust the ratings, only the temps created.

My tent is running in an extra bedroom cooled by the house A/C.

Well I've got a night off tonight. Spliff and beer ahoy.

Glock just so you know, I've had to add 0.3EC mono calcium anyway regardless of lowering the pH to 5.5.

I saw it coming which was why I dropped pH but the BD has started with a small Ca def. hopefully the extra Ca should nip it in the bud.


Will let you know if I have to add any more etc.
