100W HPS - 3 Gallon Res. - ScROG Grow
Thanks 420, ill need it :thumbsup:
Well this is my first try at ScrOg, but i can tell you what i have done so far..
I let the plants grow free until about the fourth-fifth set of alternating branches appeared.
Then i positioned the screen so that it sat on the set of fan leaf branches 1-2 nodes down from the top; and allowing the top of the plant to stick thru an inch or two. then i fastened the screen into place.
Now, you just push the top under the screen, to the next available hole. this will cause the side branches to reach the screen. Continue to train all branches as they grow to far past the screen. after about 2 weeks flower, they should slow down on branch growth.
Now, if its an unknown strain, u could begin flowering as soon as u reached the screen, as the amount of stretch is unknown during flower. This will allow you to see how much the plant will strech, as well as how much of the screen will be filled. I waited til 25% was filled, which may have been too late :wtf:
Too late > tops will grow past screen too much before they start flowering
*I would have liked to put the screen a little lower, but the plant grew faster than i gathered supplies :mad:
*I also compared a topped plant to normal one, and it seems the topped plant bushed outward too much for MY grow ( < 2 sq ft )
Hope this makes sense :stoned::stoned::stoned:

Still growin strong, and BOTH ARE FEMALES :thumbsup: however i see my mistakes may cause problems pretty soon ...
1> let it grow too long before hitting the screen
2> 2 plants is one too many for the box
3> Flowered too late
hopefully i can continue to squeeze the branches side by side :wtf:

You are on day 12 hopefully it wont stretch much more. Your box is going to explode. It looks really cool. We will just hope its almost done stretching.
I like how you say the day you are on in the title of your posts, I am always reading posts and wondering what day people are on.

So I've been going back and forth on whether to scrap this grow and start over..
The girls have grown into all the free space, and now grow off the side lighting instead of below lol.
But since the Mom i started off of them is still too young, i guess ill finish these out. Definitely Sativa Dom, doesnt look to finish till about 9.5-10 weeks. only keeping a mom off the dark green plant.. Grew stronger and faster..also has cool purple veins goin down the stems :jointsmile:
I cant take the tub out anymore, as the other half of the plants would bend and snap across the lamp/ducting.. so now i syphon-feed from above.
Im thinkin either two SOG plants, or one ScrOG plant for my next (and first) grow from clone :thumbsup:
Pics from a week ago, ya they suk.

Ya, kinda neglected the log here at the end, but i did take pics.
The first few are after i cut away the stems and dropped the screen down to see what grew... and it was a lot :jointsmile:
Didnt get technical with the exact numbers, but was a decent yield and smoke.
Will be starting a new Sog Log
