SCROG shot #2

Still new(ish) to this whole growing thing, and my first grow kicked my ass. :o

I've learned alot, and had high hopes for my V-1 SCROG, but it ended in utter failure when the plant went hermie and popped out a pollen sack during week 2. :mad: :cursing::sadcrying


It's been a few months now, and I've got a new girl to give this whole SCROG thing a shot with, so here we go!!!!:pimp::hippy:


Pic: Technically Day 2 as I didn't have time before the lights went off last night to drop the screen. Picture was taken as soon as I had the screen down, LOTS of training happened.




See everybody in a week! :thumbsup:



Crap,.... Sorry,.... Need to resize file's.... no pics right now! :o

im waiting lol

:smokin:

You'll love scrog. A little more effort during veg while filling the screen, but pretty much on auto pilot after you enter 12/12 and get your screen filled. Little more work, great rewards! Looking forward to seeing your progress.

Good to see you are still at it, and giving scrog another try. I myself am actually finally getting started at my second attempt.

Huh? For whatever reason, I can't upload pics to the thread? :wtf:

I've put my Day1 pic in an Album under my Username.

Still Unable to post pics to threads, (no new pics,... just checking in to see if I can attach to the thread) :mad:


How does one contact a mod to report this problem. I noticed a thread under the "Feedback and Suggestions" Forum where someone posted having the same problem.... http://boards.cannabis.com/feedback-...-problems.html

No reply's other than mine.

Little help? :confused:

......... Ok,... so the mods must have heard the complaints :wtf: Can't upload Day 2 full size pic,... 3.3mb (not a real surprise since it say's 1.9mb max!)

So here's the Downsized 3kb version of day 2 :stoned:



Yep, a LOT has changed already,.... I'll update in 5 day intervals.... looking forward to the 25th! :thumbsup:

so what are you gonna do once the screen is full? you realize it's gonna stretch it's ass off once you flip the lights to 12/12. i mean i've never ScROGd before, but i was under the impression that you wanted a big screen to MAXIMIZE yield off of a smaller number of plants.

i'm not knocking you, just putting it out there. your lady looks healthy. i'm along of the ride.

No problem brotherman.:smokin:

Yep, the point is to maximize the yield from a single plant. The Screen is about 2'x2' which is pretty good sized for a single plant IMO (Camoxnhx, its just chicken screen from the hardware store ;) ). I'm limited by the size of my flowering cabinet, and this single plant is taking up over a third of it! :D

I'm runnin a perpetual grow and am only throwing up the log of flowering this plant. The first pic is from Day 1 of flowering, quite literally taken minuets after moving the plant from the vege room to the flowering room and dropping the screen on it, so I'm filling in the screen with stretch. :hippy:



I'll clear up my grow a little in the next post ;)

looking very nice.....keep us posted:thumbsup:

This will actually be the 3rd of this strain that I've flowered, I'm not expecting the screen to completely fill up with stretch and the plant is already fighting me with training, but I'm seeing about 50 bud sights at screen level, and 7 that look like they'll make solid cola's!:rastasmoke:

Watering promises to be a bitch,... I'm going to have to get a piece of tube to attach to the end of my watering can so I can move it around under the screen that's only about 5" off the top of the soil! :eek:

Day 10, Starting to explode with pistils. stretch has slowed to a crawl,.... time to let it go UP :jointsmile:

I completely understand. When your babies are doing great you want to share it with the world. The world that doesn't know where you live that is. :thumbsup:

:eek: Nice Job! Is that one of your grows? or just a random shot?

I really hope my Scrog looks anything like that! :D I'll be one happy MoFo For SURE!:pimp:

Sorry to troll your thread but i am a noob.. What is Scrog and what does the screen do to the plants?

NP man! ;)


SCR.O.G means SCReen Of Green. It's a style of growing that "Trains" the plant to make it branch more. (Do some searching for SCROG and LST and you'll get a better understanding of training. ;) )

Then when the flowering cycle is kicked off it keeps the canopy at the same level to the light thusly allowing all the buds to mature at the same rate since they all get the same light, instead of like a natural grow (like your doing ;) ) where the top gets all the light and shades the lower buds.

Kitsune posted a perfect example just above! :tu: That's 2 plants growing there, and those two plants completely fill the grow area with a solid sheet of buds! :cool: :rastasmoke:


I'm still kinda a noob myself,... and this is as the title implies, only my 2nd shot at this style of growing.

Thanks for stoppin by, I'll have a new pic on tuesday! :D

im so interested in scrog but im just getting good at lst. i also am worried about my ability to fill the screen right im having a hard enough time shaping with lst. but soon i want to try a scrog.

DANKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKK! word up! that shit looking fucking amazing! GRADE A GREEN THUMB!!!!

LOL! :D Over a pound per plant!? I'd say it worked! Nicely done! :thumbsup:

My Scrog has only been veged for 2 months, Got the cutting on 7-3-10 And it was JUST A CUTTING!!! I had to get it to root, then revege it since it was in early flowering.

Shit,.... Didn't take a pic this evening,..... I'll take one in the morning,... I gotta go to bed!

See Ya'll tomorrow. :hippy:

I'm using the Techniflora "Recipe for Success" Nute's,.... Don't really have to add much in Vege since I'm using Fox Farm Ocean Forest soil,... I up pot just before flowering or early into it. Still getting my groove on now that things are running smoothly.:hippy:

Thanks for stopping by, See Ya in a couple days! :D

Day 20 pics! :hippy:


Pic 1: Top shot
Pic 2: Side shot

Moving along nicely..... I can't believe it's been this long already! Time fly's huh? :stoned:

Starting to get a nice dusting of trichomes.


Pic 1: Top shot
Pic 2: Side shot
Pic 3: Pushed in on one of the forming buds
Pic 4: Nother tight shot
Pic 5: Random pic of what everything should look like at 6.5 weeks :hippy: :jointsmile:

Looking good. :pimp:
Do you have a pic of what it looks like under the screen?
Just curious to see what it looks like now that you're half way there.

I'd love to see an under-screen shot as well!

Not much to see,... I made it rather hard on myself. The screen is only about 6" above the soil. Watering is a bitch, but I've got a 3 foot long tube on the end of my watering can.

Pic's,.... Lots of leaves with a few stems floating around in there :jointsmile:

JESUS!!!! i got lost in that forest!
