SCROG Help

Hello all, I am still new here but prepping for my second indoor grow in a few weeks. With the second one, I would like to do a SCROG but I am struggling with how to make one that I can move with my plants? My grow area is in a spare bedroom and I use the closet for a flower room. I have a make shift grow area that is about 18x36 and the closet is 24x38... I would like to try and get two plants in a SCROG that moves, ideas, suggestions too hard to do? Some help is appreciated so I can plan and be ready when my first ones, pictured go into flower. I took clones off of these for the next round... Again, any and all help and suggestions are appreciated. Thanks!

What is the purpose of moving it?

My grow area is separate from my flower area, so when it is ready to flip I need to move it from the grow area into the flower closet and then I get my new clones going in the grow area. Thats why I wanted one I could move.Maybe it isnt possible, but thought I would ask.. I could always try super cropping to get more yield, but kinda breaking the plant worries me as a new grower...

Anything is possible, depends on how much effort it is worth to you.
Not sure what benefit there would be in such a system over other techniques like topping or super cropping for your situation. I top the plant as many times as I can before flipping and bend branches to spread the plant out and provide more light through the canopy; never had an issue with breaking a branch off but the plant will still grow vertical and the bending chore is never ending. It works but is a constant thing you have to do.

As far as your question...something along the lines of a tomato cage but wide at the top with a grid built in for anchoring the tops. The cage itself can be anchored to the pot.

?

walmart got under the bed storage totes with wheels, put them in it and build a PVC ScroG with the lags placed in the tote. i got ones that fit 2, 10 gal pots and use the crates that 2Ltr sodas come in for under them, so i can flush them in the end. will post a pic if i can.

wheels have been working well for years

@Mount basic idea.

PVC or bamboo. Four pieces in the pot in a square shape pointing up in the air. Attach your screen to that.

You could also get a small tomato cage for each one. Push the legs of the cage down in the pot and put your screen on top of that. You can trim a level or two off the tomato cage if it needs to be shorter.

They advertise on this website a product that is pretty cool in theory. It's, as described, a scrog cage that has posts that go into your pot. Think of it as a horizontal trellis. I just saw the ad yesterday. Wish I could remember the website. I refreshed my page 20 times to try to find the ad. Maybe ask one of the mods. It's a nice looking product. It raises and lowers also.

There is this concept. Nit as good as the cage I am still looking for. It's driving me crazy now

Glad you finally got to sleep, this is cool, thank you!

Get 2 tents flower in one and veg in other and just swap your light out every run then you will be flowering and veg in different tents every time and just move a bulb or light back and forth

Didn't have the cash for the tents that is why I was using a closet, maybe I can add the tents later and switch out the bulbs like you suggest, thanks.

All good ideas thanks, I knew if I asked the right crowed it would help get some creative things flowing...
