That's what I ran into.. Always want to try different pruning and stuff- scrogs make it pretty hard.. Trying an LED DWC next.

Update on my scrog at day 49. Strain is critical 2.0 by Dinafem

I was thinking of topping the 5th node and then super cropping the 4 way plant so it can grow into my Scrog.
Would it better to LST the 4 branches down or to super crop them?

it really depends on your length and width (sqft) of the area. I would suggest to supercrop anything 5 gallon or over, and LST anything under 5 gallons. Because plants in small pots tend to be much shorter. I think topping at the 4th sounds like a good idea.

To my mind, the screen size also has a lot to do with the strain and manageability.
A really big screen will be hard to tend to, a really small screen won't accommodate a stretchy sativa.
You can have more than one screen under a light with a bit footprint, the only thing to watch in terms of your lights is that the illuminate the whole screen
just my 2c, hth with your decisionmaking!

I think it's more a matter of personal choice whether to LST or supercrop.
Both achieve the goal of spreading out the growth onto the screen

Hi there Calliandra~
I actually am in coco coir....I have it topdressed with KnatNix...
I have had issues with crawlers in coco (springtails mainly, but they dont hurt anything)
I still have springtails tho, but not a knat in sight! lol....thing is, i never had knats. it was just something i tried on a tip from the hydro shop, but it didnt work. I have noticed that there are less springtails...it probably makes it hard for them to reproduce....
Anyway...thanks for the kind words!
this is by far my best scrog to date!
how is your setup coming along?

ohlmao! I actually asked because my fungus gnats are starting to get on my nerves and I'm considering options to get rid of them for good
Seems it may be helping at least reduce your springtail population, fingers crossed for you!As for myself, I'm messing around with autos at the mo, will only be able to start a scrog after I move house in december
So it's great to be able to peek into spaces like yours in the meantime!Cheers!

i see~ i have some autos laying around from when i first started in with growing...i thought autos were gods gift to growers! (and they are cool) i also think its funny that everyone says autos are weak as far as potency goes....shit, i have grown some bomb ass autos! i realize ruderalis is less potent....but it just depends on how green them thumbs are!ohlmao!

anyway...
If your having issues with fungas knats, i absolutely reccomend you to use the Knat Nix. it works wonders. i had them in the past in this same space, but not since i started dressing with this stuff.
oh, one more thing abouut autos...
i live in washington state...summers are prettty weak, and to be able to squeeze 2-3 full grows outdoors in the grow season is very helpful, so thats what i like about them!
What genetics are you playing with?

Yeah I'm still on the fence about autos, not sure they're my thing, despite seeing all the advantages you also mentionedi see~ i have some autos laying around from when i first started in with growing...i thought autos were gods gift to growers!

i see ppl use multiple screens as well, but i never really understood it...i think you would do great, just as is, with your one screen. but idk, like isaid, i nver understood why ppl use two! looks good either way man! nice job on going big! grow big or go home! lol
