Lovely looking ladies on these pages. Congrats. Thought I'd put my two cents in!

My grow is all hydro, all automated, (Crestron computer controlled) 48 watering cycles per day, all custom built and all delightful. Great results with a few learning curve balls, but consistent yields of 350g wet per plant. 10 plants in the flowering room. 3 moms give plenty clones, harvest 5 plants every 4 weeks! More pics to follow if anyone interested.....cheers...
Awesome dude!!!

Anybody out there doing or done a scrog or two? I want get the most of my 4x4 space and I'm thinking this time use one gal pots and scrog them rather than the conventional method. Any suggustions or advice?

Here is my 400w setup. I have one LA woman, one LA confidential, one barney's utopia haze, and three little clones I just got from a buddy. The three plants from seed are in about week four of flowering, and the three small clones haven't started to flower yet. The bud pics are from the La confidential, this plant smells so strong like skunk. The haze smells really fruity and is growing very tall. The la woman never really took to my fimming, and is a real runt, but the buds are getting frosty.

In a 4x4 space using 4 18-24" clones would fill it out nicely if they're are hybrids. If indica dominant, got up to 6 and if heavy sativa, drop to 3. If you dont have room to veg out 4 small bushes like that, go with 6 small clones(8-10") if hybrid. A good height above the pots is 8-12". And remember that during the forst 3 weeks of flower you need to spend about 10 min a day, every 2-3 days, training the plants into the screen. If you check out my journal(link in sig) there is tons of information and even more pics showing how to train them and the results that can easily be achived growing like this. !st run was 5 small white widow clones under a 400w and I pulled just under 10oz.

Scrogging is awesome. Are you planning to FIM first? That will give you a few-many more branches to work with to really fill out a screen. I did a FIM around three weeks; that seemed to work well.

I did it first time this year and I'm sold on this method. Now, I screwed up a little by building my screen just a hair shorter than my plant (I don't know how you really do this professionally; I just improvised and built up a frame and screen myself -- check my link to see). So, I had the three main colas get away from the rest of the plant, and it all came out a little hack. But, I still see enough in the way of results to be stoked about this method - I've got a rack of 10 secondary colas that wouldn't be anything without the scrog.

A lot of seed banks give advice on strains best-suited to FIM and scrog. I don't know how much stock to put into that advice with only two grows and one scrog under my belt, but it's something else to consider.

Maybe someone can provide advice / link on how to set up screens properly....seems you'd want something you can adjust to your plants' height when you decide to start the process.

If your looking for scrog info, just read through the first couple of pages of my journal.
Thanks man. Good stuff.

I have one room 4x4 and I just put up a new 4x4 grow tent so I will do one scrog and then 4-6 larger plants probably ww and big bud. Any particular size you use one the screen or wire?

Thanks!

It really comes down to personal prefrence and whats available to you. The smalles you would want would be 1"x1" but that makes it hard to pull the plants back through the screen without damage. The max is generally about 3"x3". I pesonally use a green garden fencing from Home Depot that is 2"x3" and comes in 25' rolls for $15. Its a good size and plastic coated so it wont rust from moisture from the room or plants. On tip I didnt mention but was in the journal is that twist ties are a Scrogs best friend. Really gives you the ability to place the branches however you please.
