oh yeah, try 2 foot flouros they might help the light spread plus they can be a half inch away for intensity. not sure if it will fit just trying to help.Quote:

for now let them grow. as your screen fills up youll be better able to guage whether they should be cut. be patient and dont overthink this whole process. this method is one of the cheapest ways to go especially for the yield potential. your bud all of it will be tied to the screen and closest to the light. by the time your ready to flower there should be nothing underneath the screen, well except branches. hope this is helping.Quote:

I think i'm just going to lst and keep the screen in there just to stop the taller branches from upwards growth
One thing you should know is that male's do grow faster, just an FYI. I think if you get 4 CFL's in there, you will have a nice harvest. And also your cfl wattage is 26watts, its only saying equivalent to 100 watts. You need to read the lighting section its very interesting and when getting the tools of the hobby, lighting is pretty important. I used 279watts of CFL's for a first indoor grow and i was very happy in the end and that was 11 CFL's at different watts. I had some 27, 26 and some 13watt bulbs, which equaled the 279 total watts, if this makes sense.Quote:

Keep us posted and keep er green:rasta:
well since your doing that, take 5 clones for practice(trust me , youll thank me later, if not for this plant then maybe another) now that youre flowering let the branches through the screen, frankly, you should have done that already...its the whole point of a scrog. scrog is defined in the dictionary as PATIENCE;) some people will utilize more than one plant at a time for quicker results. from your pics of your plant is perfect for scrog. a wiley branching beast. tamed a few in my day, i did. what you need is a flat bed of buds growing from the screen not limbs reaching towards its light scource. lay it flat and gain results.Quote:

okay thanks bro thats good to know from someone with more experience but yeah right now i will probably start cloning in my next few grows so i can get the hang of it first when you say let the branches out the screen do you mean the ones that are growing from my main stem or all the branches in the grow box then pull them back im not sure i thought secondary branches were what i was suppose to be putting threw the screen ive been looking at alot of pics and stuff on scrog and lst and flowerd plants and they all look like they didnt start off with as many branches i did so im a little confused on what i should be training under the screen basically everything thats coming out the screen i need advice but so far so good just dont wont mess up i know you guys said be patience i guess imma tryQuote:

your fine, just doing things the hard way. i promise after this grow youll laugh and then find youve stepped into a whole new pile. there is no need to top at all. whatever branch makes it to the top wins (thats above the screen.) any and every branch that makes it an inch above the screen will get gently bent over and tied down (wow that was kinda hot:D) look at your screen and picture a maze game where you have to make all those branches tie down into every slot. leave some space for flowering time though as it will most likely continue to grow, this is known as stretch. before you start to flower any leaf and puny branch underneath will be cut and discarded or used as clones. during flower the process for filling the screen is the same, tie down. eventually stretch will halt and buds will fill your screen:thumbsup: hopefully im making sense, sometimes i have a hard time explaining myself.
Ill just call you T for short;)
thats a nice lil setup you have there. I wanna build one.
Nice job though!!
Ill be back:cool:
