Been awhile since I posted here but I have a question I'm hoping you guys can help me with since this is my first attempt at LST, topping, and SCROGing... Below are some photos of my girls as of tonight. My two main tops are clearly visible and well on their way of set 3 or 4 of their true leaves. My question is - is this the point where I tie down the two main side fans and the two main tops? Wait for them to straighten up then top one more time and repeat - minus topping again for a third time....?IMG_3032.JPGIMG_3033.JPG IMG_3035.JPG IMG_3036.JPG

Again, any help would be greatly appreciated guys, as this is my first attempt.

Start to bend the 2 tops down then wait 2-3 more nodes an top again then tie down again an so on till your satisfied with it. Tie down the big fan leaves if there in the way but if not leave them alone. Hope this helps.

Are you running synthetic nutrients? It looks like you've got that "claw" going on from a slight toxicity

Here's an update on my multiple strain organic super soil scrog. Damn that's a mouthful lol. From the left going right I have a Columbian Gold, Yunnan, Strawberry Blue, Scotts og, 4 different Phenotypes of Gorilla Glue 4 x starkiller og, a b52, and another Scotts. They're getting flipped on the 1st of next month.

First time scrogger here and i love it!

400w HPS - 3x3x6 Tent - Scrubber

First round was 4 plants grown normally and it was tedious and annoying. I came across scrogging and love building shit so figured id build me a screen and try it out on round 2. No moving pots out and such to water.

400w mh/hps
3x3x6 tent
Random bag seed
6 gal pot w/ FFOF w/ perlite

Started with 4 plants and picked best out of the 4. 1 stayed nice and low while the others grew to fast so i killed em off and threw 1 into my 6gal pot with some FFOF soil. day temps 72-79 nite 70-68. Water/feed/water/feed schedule every 2 days 3ml Tiger Bloom. Topped once.

Think its came out pretty good so far. On week 7. currently still feeding every other watering with Tiger bloom 2-8-4 and im beginning to get some foxtailing. Is this more genetic or possibly due to TB having a bit too much P this late in the flowering? too close to light? I can move to my Botanicare Pro Bloom that is 2-3-5. I feel she still has maybe another 2-3 weeks. Last grow i cut all plants down to early due to stopping feeding to early and plant yellowing out as well. So Im waiting for my 60x loupe to come this week. Not bad for my first time i feel. outer edge of the screen is all nice fat 8+ inch colas building and the center is a ton of nice little 4" ones. next round ill do a bit better with the center. it was mostly side braching that reached up last minute to the screen.

Any input on the foxtailing would be great. Last grow i had same issue with 1 plant doing the fox tailing as well.

Pics!

Yes I'm using a gift pack from Technaflora B.C. Nutes (recipe for success).

Alot of the "clawing" is from the heat from the bulbs atleast I think. The leaves are nice an green with no disfiguring/ yellowing an a slight leave tip burn. Always water with pH:6.4-6.6. Last watering was lastnight with PPM:800 little over half strength on nutes.

Ahhh the lights could be the culprit, you're correct.

Mine are down on Friday. 48 hours of dark now, it's a nice feeling. All the leaves have gone yellow, I like that. Looks cool and I know the plant has sucked all the nutes from itself that it could.

I'll grab some pics soon, going to be a decent yield I think and looks like good smoke. I'm proud anyway, hoping it will be my PB.

I did a regular grow. A scrog. And a vert all in one grow. Due to fire inspection. And even dabbled with led lighting and digital ballast with dimmer.
Next grow im gonna scrog untill they get wide then do a vertical in 4 times the space

So here they are, after a few days of dark and no water, the leaves look destroyed, but actually made pruning them easier and the buds had swollen in that time, so mission accomplished!

Another thing I like about SCROG is that the net makes a great place to dry it all on!

Hey man I would dry them in complete darkness. The potency goes down when they are dying with a light on them. Could of just been from your camera but it looked like u had a light on above them.
