~400Watt T5 ScroG Tent

Hey everyone, just started up this grow on August 5th when I received some outdoor clones from a buddy. This is my second grow, but my first Scrog and i believe its going well. I am 16 days into flowering, and I am having a thrip problem. I released some mercenaries (ladybugs) to handle the job and they seem to be doing well. I got the infestation fast. I have also sprayed twice with neem oil.

By the way, does anyone know how to change the signatures, I cannot figure it out.

for your sig go to the top right where you see your handle, beside the inbox button. hover over your name and you see a drop down, the second button down that says signature.
nice looking grow by the way.

Hmmm strange, mine doesnt have that option. Thanks for the compliment and help though. They lookin so pretty. starting to get smelly through the 4in carbon filter

you can do it thru your control panel, in the settings

I think it got disabled for me lol or maybe this bubble i made is just that good hahaha

Are the squares in the scrog 1-inch? Just wanted a reference to size. I'm doing a scrog too with 2" squares. Plants look really healthy. Peace!

ya they are 1 inch squares. Its the plastic work fencing stuff from home depot, was cheap and have only had to cut a few squares bigger when i was tucking bigger tops. Seems to be working pretty well

That's cool. Handy that you can cut bigger spaces when you need it, to tuck branches under. I like that. I did my first two grows in a cab, not even knowing what the netting was for (failed scrog. Just grew trees). I'm on my third, well...forth kinda, and my objective is to keep tucking 3 weeks into flower so that, after the stretch, ALL nodes (bud growth locations) are all level with the screen. Perfectly horizontal. We'll see. Anxious to see your results! Peace.

Thanks man, I agree with needing to tuck more in flowering. I only tucked for a week and I am dealing with height issues. Today, i had to tie down two branches that were making the canopy too uneven. Luckily its two sets of lights so I can make the lights to canopy height different for each corner.
23 Days into Flowering:

Let me know how the Skywalker is when you are done. I had a chance to pick up a clone Skywalker and Tahoe mid-summer, but didn't do it (weather too hot).

Will do. Unfortunately, the Luke has been having troubles since the start. It is my small one, but the nug density on them is much greater just FAR fewer heads popped through. It was short with nodes everywhere, didn't get the height I was looking for. Ill probably take some more pictures tonight when the light comes on. The lady bugs are really keeping the thrips at bay, I still have them but much less in numbers.

My back row of plants has shot up passed the front quite a bit now.

Massive hair growth in the past couple of days.
