Hello everyone, I have been thoroughly reading several posts and thread here on RIU about the proper way to SCROG. Seeing as SCROG in itself is a form of LST I have been wondering about the combination of SCROG and LST at the beginning stages of veg development. As described here https://www.rollitup.org/general-marijuana-growing/438784-lbhs-4-way-lst-tutorial.html; this LST states as a perfect set up for a SCROG grow. However a few questions arise (that I did not see answered in that thread), such as; After this initial LST does one remove the "hold" before putting up the screen or does one leave the branches tied down even into the screen stage of a SCROG grow? Also wouldn't be enough to perform the method described in the link and get the same results as a SCROG without the need of a screen? If one does have to remove the "hold" from the branches that are tied down when does one do this, before or while the screen is up? Is there a documented case where these 2 techniques were performed in the same grow? The idea behind this research is to of course maximize my available space and increases yield per square foot. In a limited space a SCROG would be more beneficial and even more so with a topped of pre-LST technique. Any information anyone can provide would be very much appreciated. Thank you for your time everyone.
Regards.
