SCROG shot #2

[canniwhatsis]

What's in your head? Paint me a picture of how the screen from the bottom. :wtf:



I understand the back thing, but why not hang the light as high up as you can and set the plants on tables, (shelving) to get the canopy at a height where you don't have to bend down to work them.

My Screen is about 3' off the floor (for this log, new one under the 600 is closer to 4' up) I do most of my work kneeling,... but if I wanted to I could move everything UP so I didn't have to kneel down to work em.

My Buddy's SCROG is right at chest height, and walking thru that 40k flower is fun, its like wading thru buds. He's got a little scooter (looks like a wagon with a swiveling tractor seat on it) to run up and down the rows to maintain the undergrowth.

It is just amazing, the things that folks think of. This SCROG thing is very cool. Looks like you are having some fun!!

Thanks!

SCROG isn't my idea, something I read about that made sense. And YES it is FUN! :rastasmoke:

It takes a LOT of work tho, and the rewards,... well the rewards are pretty good. But it dose sacrifice those big honkin colas (AKA Bud's on a stick)

Instead of the huge bud up top, and some side buds on the branches with a big hollow void in the middle that has a few wispy buds, the entire plant is covered in smaller buds, pretty much every bud point has a chance to produce to the max!

Overall, I feel that a SCROG plant will out perform a naturally grown plant of the same age.


Pic: Blueberry natural grow,.... Nice main cola,... but down at the bottom there's nothing.

Ok canni, Im painting. Look at my log and see my box. Ok, now I take a screen and cut holes in it to set the pots in. Bring that up to the ring on the pots and mount. Then LST the thing and tie/twist insert or what ever branches to the screen. Im not sure this would even make a diff.

I like your idea of raising the pots though...Good idea.
Wait till I get pics of the grow table I made from a work bench. Very cool.:thumbsup:

That would work, but would also be a PITA to water. Pretty similar to what I'm thinking for next years outdoor girl.

Height was a bit of an issue last summer, so next year I plan on using a re-veged SCROG, and training it down out of the pot and straight to the sides, I've got it in my head a cascade of buds flowing out of a pot and stretching out to the sides,..... Ahhhh to be able to dream.


Lots of work that tho.

Couple shots from Day 65!

Things are looking good for harvest soon, starting to spot some amber in there, but it's still sparse. :hippy:

Hey canni,
Was trolling around on another site and came across a scrog setup that made me think of you.
I thought you might like the watering method.
Here's the pics. :hippy:

BTW, your girl is looking mighty fine. :jointsmile:

Heh,.... That's pretty clever! Whoops up on my half assed extension.


Does beg the question how much water it will disperse, and how well the center of the pot gets covered. Also, not much a fan of the main stalk being off set in the pot. the bulk of the roots will be in 1/2 of the pot.


Thanks for the compliment tho!

Great job Canni! Durban Poison is one of those strains I've loved forever. Your girl looks sweeet. I wanna bury my face in it!

Been a while since I've done a SCROG grow. You've got me wanting to lace-up the screen and give it a go!

Thanks for posting a great log, and the inspiration. :thumbsup:

btw, been following your grafting thread too, great idea!

[canniwhatsis]

Thanks DogT!


I planted my face squarely in it tonight as I trimmed out all the big yellow fans and ran an Icewater flush thru her.


All I can smell right now is a sweet desert flower perfume,.... and my fingers keep sticking to the keyboard! :jointsmile:

One more week to go. :hippy: :rastasmoke:
