Some Advice?

Hey guys, it's been awhile since my last update but my girls are doing alright. SCROG is going good and they're recovering from a couple days of re-positioning to get them right where I wanted them. As a result, all of their energy has been focused on re-positioning the tops towards the lights instead of growth. The bottom leaves have been steadily dying off the more tall they get but there is definitely some deficiencies. I was screwing with PH and didn't have an adequate way of measuring the PH. Apparently I watered at 4.5 PH last time ...... any who, 5.8 this time and I fed about two hours ago. Let me know what you think, any input would be appreciated.

Looking good so far but they are a bit hungry. Time to up your nutes a bit once you've dialed your PH in range. Soil ph is governed by the soil itself but most nutrients contain ph buffers that will lower the ph of the solution- this is normal. Be sure you are checking the runoff & not the water/nute solution. That is of course unless you are growing in coco in which case you are doing it correctly. If your are growing in organic or pre bagged soil your ph is governed by the amendments in the dirt so you'll need to check the runoff ph if this is the case and adjust it with lime as needed. Most of the time when using pre-bag soils you can pretty much forget about checking ph as it's dialed in already.
Other than that just keep pulling off anything below the net not getting any light. Personally I would have vegged longer & laid the tops down on top of the net when they got long enough. This is more like an LST net than a SCROG but you'll still yield more over an untrained plant.

Thanks. Ya I've upped the nutes this feeding and PH'd the feed as I'm growing in a soiless mixture - Promix BX. I wanted to veg longer but due to time restraints I couldn't. I know the net should be filled before flower but this is definitely giving me some good experience for next grow. I've got nine tops so I'm hoping my yields will be good. Need to figure out a way to get me LED's back in there though......

Sounds like you've got everything under control. Optimizing your grow for max yield is an investment of your most precious resource: time The only way I could figure out how to do it was to add another small grow tent for veg. Having separate areas for clones/seedlings, veg, and flowering can help get your net full before bloom phase without all the waiting around for it to happen.
