The grow looks awesome, nice to see your progressing well. Funny that you have such a nice grow but a shitty computer, I guess you gotta keep your priorities in order huh? I could never survive without a proper computer, funny to think just 20 years ago nobody even knew what a cell phone was let alone a laptop/desktop so maybe Im the one with screwed up priorities huh? FUNNY how quickly life changes.

thanks man, ya....you're definitely lookin at where my money went. my computer decides to shut off for a few days at a time and each time I'm not sure if it'll start again. it actually hasn't done that in a while, but I'm still going to wait till I can afford a new one.

I feel ya, I'd rather wait than get something I dont want also! Matter fact the computer Im currently using is an old DELL Inspiron E1505, the frame is cracked where the screen hindge attaches to on one side. The overlay at the top of the keyboard keeps poping off because the frame is cracked so I just let it lay there. I've replaced the hard drive twice and wiped the first drive clean 3 times before it just petered out and I've wiped the one I have in here now once. I just bought my wife and son an ASUS tablet and I like it but its not a computer and some functions are limited. Having said all of that long story short I just refuse to purchase a computer for me because I dont want some bullshit I dont like. I may as well patch this one together until I can afford it so like I said, I definately understand! And when your buying replacement parts for such a large grow I can imagine dollars are tight, at least until you get them first few grows in and then it gets better. I hope it does anyway.

I started these 2 plants from seed 9 weeks ago. This is my first time using a SCROG and I don't want to make it too crowded in there. I'm wondering when the right time to switch to 12/12 is. A lot of people have mixed opinions which makes it kind of hard to decide. I just want to have a full cab but not make my ladies cramped. any suggestions?

Bad ass screen noswag I like that it's perfect for a perpetual grow that way you can move it from veg to flower without disturbing the work in progress +rep!

Most Commonly Asked Questions Here: "How big should my screen be", "When should I flower", "how big should the holes in my screen be", "How far away should my screen be away from my pot", "Tuck or Weave".

I don't have any mixed feelings about these questions or answers. The answers given by others may be a mixed bag, but I repeat myself frequently and often feel I am doing you a disservice after having done so. My suggestion for all first time Scroggers is this. Read through the thread. Take notes, and jot down the page numbers that contain information pertinent to you. After reviewing it threw and threw, make note of some questions you have, and see if you can find the answer by using the search bar icon above that reads "search thread". If you are still unable to find the information you are looking for, post your question and we will do our best to get you answers. Enjoy!

The plant thats stretching is around 3 inches above the net, sativa dom hybrid so it may become an issue further into flowering.. currently the first week. Would anyone advise raising the net a bit before it becomes an issue? or perhaps train the nodes down a bit?

Added 4 inches to the Sativa and added some height on the smaller plant with a brick.. worked out awesome

1 plant scrog prototype, 12x24" screen, tray slide under for water.

This way, plants can me move, trimmed, and scrogged w/o the pain of not being able to reach your plants under one screen.

Bad ass dude, my snow fence scrog didnt go my way. It got a decent amount of bud but due to me growing other plants in that side of the tent, the height of the light wasnt always as close to the scrog as it shouold have been so my yield wasnt what I hoped, but I got a few jars so no complaints. The frame on that setup was all good but the 1" holes in the fencing were to small and a real pain in the ass when harvest time came. 2" holes minimum I think for me now.

I'm doing a grow now but I'm just growing out all of the strains I have on hand with no scrogs, just 12 single topped plants. I'm doing that so I can start fresh with 6 seeds of 1 strain (TGA's chernobyl) and perfect that one and try every which way to grow it I can. I still havent done a west coast masters 1 pound + per 1 plant/1 light grow but I absolutely plan on doing one with that frame I made using that news labeling shit and chernobyl once I pick the cut out of the 6 seeds I germed.

When are you going to get this scrog going? And what are you growing (sorry if I missed that)?

Yea, Individual scrog is the way to go on a small scale(under 10 plants maybe??) and I hope is gonna work. I experimented with the screen hole size a couple of times, 2'x2' kust worked the best, so I'm just gonna run with that. I just got my sannies order, so hopefully a jackberry or anesthesia scrog will be coming soon, I have to get like 200$ and re-do my setup before I can use the thing.

I've really been looking at the chernobyl so once you get a grow going let me know ahah, and so I can somehow steal seeds from you jk, but yea I haven't seen to many TGA strain scrogs and think alot of them could work(I'm looking at you plushberry)

Hey woodsmantoker, lovin the scrog myself. This is my first grow w/the scrog method and so far so good. I have 2k hps rolling in a 4x8. I made the screen out of pvc and nylon string and love the ease of relocating branches w/this method. This time i have blue dream and chem dawg flowering. I think next time around it will be only 1 strain per tent. Makes for a crazy mix of flowering smells though. Can't wait, this pic is only 3 wks of flower. Psyched! View attachment 1979678

glad i stumbled in here! Subed..

I'll be doing a SCROG with my Sugarees here very soon!

First time,Cant wait!

Very clever screen setups! I bet it makes it a lot easier to change and check the rez You will be glad you moved it up, you can always do a little super cropping too!

Here's mine @ 6 weeks. Blackberry far left 4 weeks.

Totally, i love the individual scrogg netting, especially for Dwc, works awesome. Rez changes are easy.. adjusting is also a snap. Next time around i might do the Og kush under a single 3x3 net and grow a monster in my tent.

How would you advise supper cropping each top? I've seen methods where you gently twist each node to break the inner wall of the stem.. Also when do you think is a good time to supper crop each top?

Btw, awesome buds you got there, should be very plump once your finished ;D
Whats the wattage on your bulb?

If you can avoid it I would just plan on the stretch and try to keep it under 18" above the screen, I've had to supercrop a few buds just because they where extra stretchy and I had no choice. I have however "weaved" the stems over and under the screen and this method might help slow growth a little bit"If hieght is becoming an issue."

Thanks, I'm hoping for a nice little yield off it Its a 600 but these girls where under a 250 for the first couple weeks of flowering so next round will be the true test!

Any tips on building the screen? I'm using pvc now but I'm going with waterfarms and really like the idea for ease of access! Do you just use a tee in the middle of the screen and build a little square around the net pot for the screen to rest on basically?

4 Pre 98 Bubba kush , 4x4 tent , 2 600w lights , RDWC , week 3 flower , let me know what you guys think!

I think it looks great!

2 6's in a 4x4, damn I thought I was pushing it Looks great bro!

Lol always pushing the limits ... This is my first run with two 600's so far so good I'm loving the second one!

Temps on the dual 6????
