Thanks

In my little experiment here I'm actually surprised that they're doing this well.

I've topped each one of these five times already, all I'm gonna do to.

Hopefully they'll stem out like 8 mains, if they all make it, and would make an ideal plant for scrog then flower in another month or so.


How early should I start LST'ing these girls down if I wanna use this method to sorta get them prepared for scrog?

I sorta looking to end up with a super flat canopy on a plant that is only about 6-8 inches tall. In the end of flowering I'd like to be able to get a plant that basically stuffs a 16" by 25" area.

6" is pretty short. I suggest you aim for 10" - 12" of stem between the roots and the screen. First, it's just difficult to work the stem to that height. You would definitely need to start LST from the early stages. Second, you need space to work under the screen for watering and pruning. It's doable but much easier if you give yourself a bit more room. The rule of thumb is to veg the plant until it fills between 1/3 and 1/2 of your screen. Then flip to flower. Once you are familiar with how much your strain stretches during flower you can dial this in. Better to under fill the screen a little than over grow a lot!

Ya... Not long after the whole 6" comment I made a I began to question it myself. Start thinking 8"-10" at min would be better. And, damn good point on the watering space, I sorta have that prob now.

I cant really start scrogging them until they go into the flowering chamber. And I'm not sure how much longer the girls in there are going to take right now. It's common assumption that their Indica and they're at 27 days flower now so maybe in another few weeks they'll be done and the clones can get moved up and trained into the screen for a week or more before 12/12.
