amazing stuff matee subed

Sent from my GT-I9505 using Rollitup mobile app

I just did SCROG for the first time and love what I've seen so far. However, like with all things it can always be done better. One thing I'd like to achieve is more consistency of the height of the bud sites by the time they really start to bloom.

Am I better off turning them over to flowering when they are a few inches shorter than where the screen is, then let them 'grow into it' so to speak? Or am I better off vegging them till they are taller than the level of the screen, so when I apply the screen they are forced horizontally immediately (rather than needing to grow up a few inches, then be bent sideways?)

I did the former this time, and felt that by the time some of the bud sites on the arms reached the screen, the earlier bud sites were already growing vertically and beginning to mature slightly.

Sorry if this has been asked or answered, but its a question I've had in mind as I think of ways to improve on the next round.

Thanks!

you should let them grow into the screen while you're in veg. keep pulling them under the screen till you're about 70% filled, then flip...

Well, if everyone is posting pictures...day 7 flower

Hey guys IM new to the website and don't know how to goin the Scrog club.I also don't know how to post new msgs.so if you could please msg me and tell me how that would be great

Good looking garden dude
im gonna be doing my first srog in a few days
just waiting on my tents corner fittings
how high above canopy should i set the trellis?
i plan on vegging for a few weeks till screen fills up a bit
but not sure how high to set the scrog..

These are some shots of a SCROG I recently finished. It was a 2ft x 4 ft tent in ebb&flo with a 400W HPS. I was just trying to grow some large colas but my 6 plants got away from me after a couple of weeks in flower and tried to to kiss my light so I crimped the stems with pliers, bent the colas and SCROGGED 'em.

This was very high for a SCROG but it worked out great.


From the top.


This partially harvested pic shows the stems running under the screen.


These pics wouldn't be complete without at least one bud example.

Lookin good dude

How high above canopy should the trellis be to scrog a bit during veg

I set either my screen right on top of the canopy or if the grow goes wild or too tall I will supercrop (crimp and bend the stems) then set the screen on the tops of the stems. I like the screen to be 9 - 12 in or more over the pot so I can get my hand under for maintenance.

Supercropping not only evens the height but it also strengthens the stems. It looks scary right after but the plants recover quickly.

So set it above canopg about 9"
i plan to veg for another 3 weeks
should i set trellis now or wait till o flipp to bloom?

I usually set the screen close to the flip but many growers like to fill on the screen before flipping. I would guess set it about a week before flipping. It all depends on on your particular grow and how much your plants will stretch. If your plants are growing slow you may want to start a little sooner. Remember that after 12/12 your plants can stretch 2 - 3 times the height. You can always add another trellis above the first just to keep the colas from falling over if they get too tall.

... and I meant at least 9 - 12 inches above the pot, not above the top of the canopy. The screen on my last scrog was set 18" over the pots after 24 days of 12/12. That wasn't ideal but I still got a great harvest and and didn't have to bend over as far to work with them.. There is no set rule. Read your plants.

Cool thanks

Almost time...RDWC...FloraNova Bloom from start to finish

Lookin good Hob. I used Floranova bloom all the way once using Lucas formula and they turned out nice. My only gripe was that it was too thick to add straight to my res because of mixing.

Have you run the Novabloom all the way before? What do you think of it?

Ok heres my setup
Just put up my tent and set trellis
im gonna flip in about 2 weeks
