Well, thanks to getting totally screwed over by BG Hydro, which is another rant for another day, I ended up having to change my plans and about the only way I can see to salvage my grow is to SCROG the plants.

So I did. The only problem is, I haven't got a clue what I'm doing. :wtf:

Because of equipment delays, which dragged on one day at a time for over three weeks, I ended up with plants that went from about 10" to about 3'. So what the heck is a guy gonna do??? This is a real hearty strain of White Widow - you can cuss at it, drop kick it, leave it out in hurricanes, it just laughs and grows bigger. Anyhoo, after building the screen, I took the plants, bent the stems over about 90 degrees, placed them under the screen and spread the newly topped stems out in what seems like a logical manner.

The plants had 3-4 hours of good light last night after I got done placing them, then about four more hours of light before I looked at them this morning. There are about 40 new/nearly new tops popping out of the wire this morning (most of it was existing growth that just worked its way up to the light). I realize that, if I let these continue to grow up they'll be buds. But, at this point, do I want to let them grow up as buds or do I want to tuck them under the wire and let them grow as branches? There are still spaces under the screen that need to fill, so I'm figuring about a week or so more of veg, giving the plants time to recover from the abuse and fill in the bare spots.

Grow area is just an ich or two under 3'x6'. two cool tubes each with 400w MH's for vegging. For flowering I'll switch to HPS -one 1000w Hortilux Eye, one 400w Grolux.

Any tips, advice, links to relevant threads would be appreciated. :thumbsup:
