I put my two mothers under the screen and its about 90% full now. Flowering will be done when screen is 95%

plants look great! had a ? on how full your screen is. now i know there is a couple ways to scrog, but what are you going to do w/ all the stretch? normally you should fill it around 60-75% then train stretch back under screen. this will allow a more compact canopy & if you have a branch that makes a bee line to the light faster than its cohorts, well supercrop that wild girl. dont worry about screwing w/ her in flower. that early in the game she wont care, imo. sorry to :ignore: but hoping to spark thought on maybe the un-thought of.

Wow man! Amazing screen job! What did you use to make that screen out of?

yeah sorry i mistyped. Flowering will commence probably this weekend. The plants will be trained under the screen until 2 weeks into flower (the stretch), I have 24 inches of growth room so i thought id let them get a little above the scrreen so they grow taller colas.

Then ill guide individual budsites to the holes and secure them to the screen (i know i dont have to) here is the thinking behind that. If i secure the growth to the screen on opposite sides of the square they wont touch each other unless they get really fat. If that happens I saw a trick where toothpicks wer used wedged in between the colas. this keeps em apart.

The screen was made out of the 2X4 inch squares galvanized fencing. Its very sturdy and doesnt move because of the thickness of the material. I figured out later the holes were to big so i took some wire and cut all the rows in half, giving me 200 2X2 squares.

There are two strains in there, on the right half of the screen is Northern Flame, on the left half is Bubblelicious. im keeping them seperate.

Yea, I agree. Should be nice to let them grow out for a week to get used to the screen. Then when they stretch they are more comfortable to the screen and they should stretch nice and straight up!

I'm thinkin of doin my next grow a scrog grow...Maybe....

sounds perfect to me...defo wanna see how this turns out and maybe one day when i got more room do something like this - I think it'd suit my 'style' of growing well. How easy is it to look after them all like that?

 

[New_2_Chronic]

its incredibly simple. they pretty much grow under the screen, I just have to guide some growth to the blank spots in the screen every few days.

they also grow very fast due to stretching them outunderr the screen and light gets inside the plant, it starts growing from everywhere....

When I switch to flowering it should be interesting....

Screen is 9 inches above the pot. The only problem I run into is I did not plan for how I was going to water them, its a little bit of a challange. I would reccomend 12 inches above the pot to give yourself some workin room.

:yay: :yay: Flipped the switch on the Scrog. Its about 95% full so it should fill out very nicely. Gave the plants thier first Fox Farms Bloomin Nutes (Open Sesame). Went 12/12 on Saturday so 56 days and counting....

18 Clones in the bubbler cloner are on day 4 and looking great, no real root formation yet though. Been changin the water every 2 days.

Bought a 2X2 10 gal res EBB and Flow system for the clones. Its a Hydrofarm and has room for 15 6 inch wide 5 inch deep pots on the table. I plan to use 9 7 inch wide, 7 inch high pots with hydroton. Going to use this full cycle, 2 week veg 8 week flower....:yay: :yay: Im doin Hydro Baby!

On to the Porn!
