Well I had 4 plants in this setup, but They stretched like a mofo and I decided to kill 2 of them. I then added this screen. I pretty sure that this will recover, but since this is my first grow ever and my first Scrog, I would like some reinforcement.

This is just about as high as my light will go, So I'm hoping that this is far enough away from the screen.

They are under a 250HPS and have been under 12/12 for 10 days, I also used Bud Blood which is suppose to ease the stretch.

Hey, I haven't done scrog, but I'm certain you're supposed to put the stems of the plant through the holes in the grid... don't just bend them under it. They won't get enough light and it will really mess them up in the end. I think you need to put each stem into its own hole which allows each node to get an even amount of light. You will probably need to tie the stems to the grid because it looks like the plants may be tall enough to touch the light. Just make sure they don't burn! You might need to LST them instead if they're absolutely too tall...

Good luck!

Locate all the growth shoots in that fucking mess and position them in the holes in the mesh. One shoot per hole.

ok, well its been two days. They recovered a lot from that pic. All I did in that first pic was put them under the screen. Yesterday I arranged them a little and today i basically untangled everything (took me 90min), arranged them so i could easily harvest one bud and hopefully leave others undisturbed.
I then pollinated some 4 lowryders with one male (in a different cabinet) and do not want to open this cabinet.
Tomorrow I will try to post pics.

Also, One the left is AK-47 and the one on the right is bagseed, that came from an accidental pollination of a Romulan by a Magic Carpet Ride [Side Note: Can Anyone link me to a Magic Carpet Ride grow? I've only seen it listed on strain lists (Reeferman, is what they claim) never for sale or bud shots.

I know that you shouldn't normally grow two different strains in one reservoir, but this is what i have.

I hit them with Bud Blood a week ago, and I hope they are done streching. They the AK is deffinetly flowering, and the Rom/MCR is not too far behind.
Also, I removed all the undergrowth on these that i did not think would reach the screen.

Pics soon.

is it a good idea to trim the fan leaves when you are flowering?

if your trimming the fan leaves to get more light to the buds then your chill it wont affect your crop or anything... thats what scrog is for anyways, to get more light to the buds... having the fan leaves on top kinda defeates the purpose... :thumbsup: good job otherwise keep it up

u should have x3 the free space above the screen so it doesnt hit the light. like if your screen is 16 inches above the res. Nice buds tho :) :)

Well i got the cabinet & Light & 4 site DWC for $250 from a foaf literally.

But i added a new bulb (25) Bottom with wheels (10) solid back piece (7)
Ultraflect (50, but I only used about $8 worth in this cabinet) New fans (40, 20) a new larger airpump (15) air line tubing (15) bubble wands (15) Timer for lights (10) 2 powerstrips [i keep one powerstip pluged into the timer and hook the exaust fan and lights to this powerstrip] (15)

I got the AK-47 as a clone and the RomXMCR was from bagseed that i knew was Romulan that had been in the presence of a Magic Carpet Ride Male.

I did the math :thumbsup:

i don't think im burning them. Maybe a fan leaf or two, but the buds are all unscorched. Im using a stanley fan to cool a 250W hps. Its bit overkill.:smokin:

They are however, squishing themselves against the glass. What should i do, cut them off?:D

i want to kick u in the nads..

I wish you would have kick my bitches in her nads, cause i think i got seeds forming. I can't find the bananna(s), i looked forever.

O well, i am going to continute the grow, because i need the smoke (seeded or not) and i have nothing to replace them with

did one of the plants go a little hermie or something? What happened? Did you figure it out?

bag seed will almost always do that. go hermaphrodite or something.
