Whatsup everyone. almost harvest time with my little 250 watt cab. I yeilded about 4 0z out of it (3'x1' screen) last harvest and I am hoping to do the same with this on. This is 3 plants: 2 white widdows and a humboldt gold. I have an alaskan thunderfuck getting ready to go under next. Here are some pics...

It was some cupboards that were getting thrown out at my apartment complex. I snagged one w/ two doors, flipped it on it's side, moved the hinges and painted it white. It works out really well, I just make the screen w/ string down the middle. here's an older picof the ladies w/ the cabinet wide open. it was before I put the hps in it. also a pic of the ladies about 3 weeks ago...

nice looking grow!!!!! those plants look really healthy!

just my 2 cents:
you could increase yeild with smaller holes in the "screen" i use 1or 1 1/2inch screen in my 2'x2' 150hps and 4 42cfl scrog and i usually get at least a qp. with a 250 you could probaly increase a by few oz even with only the 1' depth. you won't believe how much easier it is to train with a small screen! i started scroggin' with like 2 1/2 inch screen and when i switched to the smaller one i was amazed at the difference. you can get alot more exact placement of the budsites. expert scrogger's boast 2.4oz per square foot of screen!!!!!

btw, i'm no expert.

hmmm I am using 1'x'1 screens with 2"x3" spacing and I do a lot of bridging with sturdy ties. Will try a tighter screen next time - thing is I got this stuff on a roll so it was ready made and I didnt have to do any weaving. Can you buy a roll of 1" screen?

Yeah - I worked on my plants some more and realized I am just going to end up with a 1" screen made mostly of sturdy ties LOL - so next time..

Is this in the gardening section or the building supp - do you recall?

anyway - I forgot to say - thanks for the tip turtle :thumbsup:

I have a 3'x3' arrangement of 1' sq scrog modules under a 600W hps. Inspired by the Super Simple Scrog thread on Overgrow / BigFatJ .

I am shooting for 1 oz per module - anything more would be awesome!

That super simple scrog was brilliant. But a guy on here has a nicer one.
cheers!
