A single plant is not a SCROG grow by definition. It's a single plant under a screen and unless you crop there is no point. You would do better growing it out as a cropped plant if height is an issue. Then again a 250w light will only give off good light for about 12-14". If you cropped it then you don't need to train it just tuck the fan leafs out of the way and you would get a better yield for your efforts.
Zandor Reviewed by Zandor on . SCROG GROW. What do i want to do I am doing a single plant in a 4 gal pot right now under a 250 HPS. Doing the SCRog method, plant was 4 weeks from seed on Friday, will be 4 weeks above the soil on Wednesday. The intermediate growth is now starting to really grow, but the tops are still not close enough to the screen for me to train. Screen is about 8 inches from the base of the plant, about 2-1/2 inches from the tops of the stems. All the growth is pretty much to the leaves and not the stems and seems to bet getting Rating: 5
