Well,... this is my first scrog that will actually go to completion so Thanks! :jointsmile:

As far as pulling the screen, it's on until harvest!

In hindsight my use of chicken screen made training easier but will make harvest harder, so it's a trade off.

I know a commercial grower that SCROG's and he uses industrial fence, with a 3x4 inch grid, that works great for his size grow! And at harvest, cut the plant pull it down and VIOALA! ready to trim!

As for MY grow, I will have to excise the buds from the screen before I can move the pot and undergrowth,.... Harvest is kinda gonna suck.


Personally I feel there are several way's to SCROG, and none are really wrong, it's just a matter of how much work you want to put into it! :rastasmoke:

So My advice to a first timer looking to scrog,..... First don't do it.

SCROG takes a LOT of work to maintain,.... the results are worth it, but for a first timer it can be a bit to chew off..... Ask me how I know
