Can someone tell me how to prune for a scrog. Plants on its way back to full health and in 10 days I’m planning to put it into a scrog in a 2.2 by 2.5 grow tent I made.

The issue is I’ve lst’d and topped the shit out of it these last 3 n half months and now I’ve got a bush and doing a first time scrog I have no idea what to prune. This should almost triple in the stretch as I grew same strain outdoors last year and that’s what happened.

Should easily fill my space/maybe even overcrowd it so what do I chop off before I start weaving her through the holes when she stretches? Thanks

Looks good. Id say leave it. Put scrog net on and tuck away. When stretch starts prune any branches that wont reach the net (clone these and put into pots) and keep anything under the net nice and tidy during flowering.

Should I put the screen up against the canopy or about a foot off and take off the plant ties I’ve been using for LST and let it grow up to the screen ?

Yep, I would just work with what you have there... pruning is done when plants are tiny to create lots of branches... The branches will tell you where the screen needs to go as you start working with it.

That doesn't look very healthy mate.

Three and a half months and it still has to flower? Plus you said ten more days so you're looking at four months of veg. Man that's a long time. I could do two grows in the amount of time it's going to take to finish that plant. I hope you end up with a decent harvest for all the time you're putting in on that plant.

Yeh I know but started out as a test to see if my seeds were viable and decided to actually keep it when it started making leaves as I couldn’t bring myself to throwing it out and wanted to learn different training techniques before the outdoor season and being winter here in aus I had to build a indoor set up and people on this site mentioned for my space it’s better to do 1 big plant and fill the whole space.

Not long now till the outdoor season starts here so will be taking clones and growing some bigger trees when the time comes
