So I been doing some research on scrog methods and it's very interesting to me. one thing did catch my eye and that's that all the videos I saw were for a large harvest. I was curious if it was possible to do that with let's say 4 plant and if it's even worth it. What size would be recommended for 4 plants inside 5 gallon pots?

Thanks

Well what I was asking is how big should I make the scrog to accommodate 4 plants.I see videos of people using them on like 10+ plants. Like how far apart should I weave the squares and all that.

Thanks

2Inch by 2 inch and for four plants id do about four by four feet of screen but its all up to u and if u top alot so u get more branches

Yeah I top whenever I get the chance, not often Don't want to damage anything considering I just transplanted. The plants are still seedlings but I have another plant that was rootbound and the growth was affected so I figured I'd but the babies under 400w HPS and have them catch up to the big plant (9 inches) then throw them under the same scrog. Thanks for the instructions.

thanks dude... have you ever tried the tie down method? ? Or you just tuck them under the screen and fuck it? I'm just trying to find what would work best for me in my space... I think it's just under 3x4ft and about 5 feet tall..

Im using those trellis nets 6" holes ,and I can tell you I was lazy and just tucked them under screen boy do i regret that because its a jungle in there. Im doing 12 plants in 1 gal smart pots in a 2x4 raised bed but the net is 4x4 like the tent. I realized I had to factor in the type of strain because scrog in my observation is mainly used for those dense low yielder strains like GSCookies ,Og kush etc.. Im doing GSC and thats why I put 12 plants in 1gals because the pheno I have is a shitty yielder but dam its fire! Also these plants are in the 1 gals for a about 90 days from rooted clone to harvest so no need for a big pot with that short of a life cycle in veg and also another reason why so many plants. If your doing a long veg time then do the 5 gal and maximize the 3x4 area with the scrog but also factor in all the stretch its all about timing with scrog!!

When should I throw up the scrog ? Like 2 weeks before bloom?

Yup that sounds good ,I supercrop the main stem around that time and as the lower branches get bigger I spread them out ,its a daily task given this plant grows an average of 1-2.5 inches a day, then you got the 2-3 weeks of stretch in flower but after that its good for the most part
