Scrog Question , Need advice please
CanGroit, yes I do realize that the rotation concept was intended but not all things are suitable all the time. Usually the rotation is easiest to use with the Sea Of Green method not Scrog.
You may notice that in my post I mentioned that it is most useful to fill 50% to 70% of the screen during veg and only the remaining 30% to 50% of screen fill will occur during flower stage growth spurt. If you do not start the screen fill until you start the 2 to 4 week growth spurt during flower stage you will only get the 30% to 50% screen fill and not the full screen fill. All of this is of course dependant on the total area of screen per plant. The net result is that you will get less total bud production using what you are suggesting (start screen and 12/12 at the same time). Scrog can be used in a rotational method but usually is best if you are moving the lights and not the plants.
Using your suggested method you will get the benefit of all the buds receiving equal benefit of the lighting but you will get much less production per plant. You will however still be able to take advantage of the lower overall total hieght of the grow space (maybe) if that is helpful to you. If plant population count is not a problem you can try using 12"x12" of screen per plant rather than the 24"x24" that I use. I am consticted by a total plant count of 6 mature plants so I like to get as much quality bud production per plant as I can within reasonable limits.
Hope some of this helps but I think you will benefit most by arranging your grow op to allow for moving the lights rather than the plants if you can.
regards,
Max Blast
