Well I have two race way tables and each will have a 3 x 9 screen and that is where I get the 6 x 9 canopy. I do not mind running bigger pots... I just do not want it to not go to waste. This is drain to waste and I want to be sure the roots are happy.
Looking at no more than two plants per 3 x 3 square.
What do you recomend?
Thanks again for all the help.

I joined this forum after finding this great tutorial on the internet. Just wanted to ask a couple of questions before i start:
-my veg area is in my attic, and the attic door/ceiling hole is only about 18inches wide by 2 foot long, meaning the maximum dimension of the scrog screen is slightly under - is that enough screen size to make it worth the while? Or would i get better results just from lsting? How long would it take veg-wise to fill this screen?
- do you fill every hole in the screen, or just the majority of them? I can imagine there being a point where the horizontal growth exceeds the size of the screen - do you cut it off, or bend it round and back towards the screen again?
-is there any reason why the holes are 2.5 inches apart? Why not less, since only a branch needs to come through it?

1-fine for 1 plant
2- fill the screen about 60-70% and then flip em
3-2.5 inches is perfect for spacing them out just enough but not too much
Hey guys. Mite be a dumb question but on very 1st grow here n need some help on scrog for autofems. Babies are on there 5th wk n starting to show a dozen or so flowers. Do I try keep them under the net until smaller flowers reach the net or at this stage should I b letting them grow through it till end of cycle. Any help would b well appreciated. Cheers
hey thanks for the tutorial 
this is my first grow I've got a lot of plants and a couple questions for ya if you don't mind. I was thinking of combining sog and scrog. reason being I've got 80 clones and 2 4'x8' beds so 40 each bed and less than 1 sqft/plant. I was thinking of shorter veg and using a screen to even the canopy? so my question is should I top them with a shorter veg and less room/plant? when should topping be done? (what's too soon for rooted clones and how much veg do they generally need after topping to recover before flowering?) also should I lower the screen a bit with a shorter veg time and just pull the tops over letting light to the lower branches? I think i'm a bit late for topping this round but maybe next if I have a better idea of what I'm doing. they're already about 8-9" and 1.5 wks into veg. was thinking of getting the screen on and pulling tops over, another week or so of veggin then flower? thanks man. also in case you would suggest a different method, the reason for more plant/less veg is we have a 300 plant limit, are doing our own clones, and are trying to get as many rounds in before march when our med program changes and we can't grow anymore. so we want as short of veg as possible but still yield and don't have a plant limit for our space.

What you are running is called a SOG grow, totally different. I'd leave the set up as is and just run em. adding screens to that would be a ton of work for very little increase in yield IMOhey thanks for the tutorial

I'm guessing you guys use feminized seeds for this scrog method? You said it is not for clones and what a drag it would be to "4 -way" top a plant only to have it go male.
Is there a scrog method for clones or is it better to do a sog with many lollypopped clones? Great thread by the way. Appreciate your time and efforts.
