How is my SCRoG looking?

This is the first time I'm doing a scrog in my cab, I'm not sure if I should be doing more, like cutting away all the leaves under the screen, or cutting away some of the fan leaves, as there are quite a few buds that are hidden under bigger fan leaves and not getting light.

Watering has also proven to be difficult as I have to water into the saucer and let it suck it up. Getting to the pots in the back is a tight squeeze, so I use a turkey baster and squirt the nutrients into the pot or saucer.

Any of the pro's got some good advise for me? I can't help but feel there's going to be a lot of wasted buds that are hidden underneath the main canopy.

I'm currently in week three of flower.The plants are American Dream (in the back), Northern Lights (2 big white pots in the front) and Juicy Fruit (in the skinny cup with yellow marker sticking out). I've pollenated a bud of the JF, which is now nicely looking like I've got a few seeds in it. YAY.

I have had the same watering problem.

The plants are the ones that suffer when maintenance is hard.

Can you get a cart under them, wheels sure help. Low rider style for you.

pump and hose is great. The thing in the middle is a ruler (for scale) looked tiny without it.

Those are great plants, very healthy no defs. Try cleaning the lower branches off one. I've done this it produces a corn cob style bud. I've never tried soil,but you plants are making me think I need to do some more experiments.

AWESOME.

So Tetra.. is that just like an aquarium pump, with a hose attached to the output?
Do you just stick the whole thing into a bucket with your nutes?
Can you control the flow at all?

Hmmm, I've got loads of old aquarium gear here, I can probably find a pump in some old filter.

Its a small fountain pump, a fish pump will work with a smaller diameter hose.
Its hard to see there is a long trigger on the handle.
Found the wand for 6$ at the local discount store.
They got all their spring stuff in.
Stick it in the bucket and away you go.
Made things a little easier

BTW, here's a few before photos.

From the 6th March
10th March - wen't to 12/12's on 11th March
26th March and lastly
31st March

Heres another plan for getting nutes to those babys in the back. If you have a fish pump, you can rig up a drip system for them.Add a timer to the pump, vola automation.

Are you sure you are a female.

Hang on .. .lemme check.. uhhh two big bumps up top, nothing much showing down below.. yup I must be a female.

Why?

I,m not being sexist, your building skills put many of the boys to shame.

EXCELLENT WORK

Tsk tsk, but that is being sexist. You're assuming that males are better growers than females, and therefore it's the boys that naturally put the girls to shame..

What I mean is, I love a woman who's not afraid to pick up so tools and get their hands dirty.

That sounds sexist too.

I better stop, before the hole gets any deeper.

Best of luck, I'll be watching.

Heh, I learned a bit too late in my life that men are not born with the electronics and mechanics genes, that they have to learn it like any other skill. Unfortunately too many men these days are useless with stuff like that so I've had to learn myself. I wish I had paid more attention to the stuff my father did when he was alive.

You should see me with a soldering iron, I can solder a pretty mean connection. Here's a guitar pedal I built .. It's called a Trich-Boost Everything, the decoration/design and each single tiny component was all built and put together by female hands.

You're killing me.

Someone whom I can't recall had the dilemma of watering plants in the back. He actually taped what I believe was a measuring cup (the kind with the straight handle) to a broom handle, and was able to water plants in the back with little effort.

Perhaps something of this nature may help.

I think my job was a lot neater than yours, don't u?

Yes, its perfect. But mine goes 40 mph on the ocean.
I wish it were my boat,in a way its my boat, but it is not.
I'm not a topper, I just want you to see that I'm in a position to appreciate your handy work.

Here you go, flowers and a song.

Well my scrog is coming along nicely.

I did a lot of trimming of all the small popcorn stuff growing so the plants can just concentrate on their main colas. There are still a few smaller buds that were trying to come up about half height under the canopy but above the screen? They're just getting overshadowed by the upper buds. Should I just get rid of those too

I just realised today that I should be harvesting in 3 weeks. I'm right at the mid point. Yay... now I need to start to think about my finishing up!

This week end I saw a squirty water bottle watering thing which had a straw/pipe coming up out the top for watering plants that are high up. I was thinking this might be easy to water the back plants with. I should have bought it when I was there.
