Yeah it's looking more like an LST grow rather that a srogg. Do you mean I should spin the plants as in keep then where they are at the minute just spin on the centre axis?

the big plant with the tall branches in the corner there is no room to scrog that branch if you turn it say 12 hrs on a clockwise then you could scrog the plant.

edit so yes spin them. you are still not gonna be able to scrog them easy since you have 4 plants under the scrog. you might just have to raise the scrog and use it to help hold the buds up better in late flower.

Yeah I agree with you. I think ill take the scrog down and have a look at her. Ill take a couple of snaps for you.

pull the scrog up you may need it to hold buds. right now its not working yet. but in 2 weeks it might. 4 plants is tough you wil fill the tent with them anyway. but the scrog will hold and help in 2 weeks so adjust it. you have the right ideal.

Its now day 42, I only have one small bud so far, bit gutted. looks nice though. I took the top scrogg net off today because one of the plants needed to be moved. After I took it off though the plant looked ok. So I've no decided not to scrogg the plants. I might consider further pruning or training though if I hear of anything. I finally potted on the last LHA. Its been in a 2 litre pot until now so needless to say its stunted. Ive potted it in a forty litre pot that took 60 litres of compost to fill so I have no idea how big it is really :-/ gotta love marketing ppl huh #ballbags. Just a recap on the grow so far. I planted 5 LHA autos under 125w cfl in a couple of litre pots, then potted on into 27litre fibre smartpots under a 400w light. Since then I have plants two more seeds. 1. Flash Babylon auto is 15 days old and looking very small. Its the smallest plant in the pics. Then I have La diva Auto which is 28 days old. Its at the back right outside the tent in the pics. Its in a 27litre fibre smart pot, but unlike the LHA which is in a 1:1 perlite mixe the La diva is just compost. Im feeding the plants just a generic 2:1:1 feed every 3 days. Ive had to prune the fan leaves on the plants twice. They haven't liked the second time but the canopy was too dense for a 400w bulb, and the plants I was starting the get a rain forest affect the thick canopy started to cause condensation (I didn't like that) so I trimmed it all back to get the air in and around the plants for a few days. The leaves are already starting to fill the space again. Other than that the plants are looking pretty lanky. they height range is between 40 and 60cm. or 16 to 24inches. and about 12inch to 16inch spread. or 30-40cm spread. In the future I want to get a 4x3x7' tent plus a 600w light and a carbon filter and extra fan kit. soon as funds permit it. 1st pic is of the first bud http://
2nd. is of the last LHA to be potted on into the 40litre or 8ukgal or 10Us gal pot. http://
3rd. is of the smallest plant flash Babylon. http://
4th. is the little LA diva plant. http://
the last one is a wide shot of the whole grow. http://

holy cow now that my man is a pot you could grow a tree in it. I would use the scrogs just move the lower one up 10 inches then add the other 1 10 inches above it it will help hold them and then you can open your plants better. next time do 2 plants under a scrog so you can really fill the scrog. and i wouldn't lollipop them till you have your scrog more filled also i would try and get the scrog smaller holes like 4 inch holes so you will have 2 times more scrog holes. and stop chopping stuff off of them. as you plant needs stuff it will take from the lower leaves. i leave mine till i know they wont produce buds. even if they are smaller i leave them so i can make hash/oil/butter but will make clones from lowest branches.

yeah I think maybe lst might be a better way with autos tho or a vert light grow?

hey how far up is your light in flower? Day 49? is that from seed? cause you start counting flower weeks when you flip them. and looks like week 3 or so in flower.

its been on 12/12 since jan 30th believe it or not, but its a big plant and the grow tent has been in the garage over winter I think the cold probs shocked it a bit. im hoping 3-5 weeks it will be done.

i would move the light lower. and your plants look a bit ahead of my 3week flower one. so im guessing 5 weeks maybe.

yeah I think that would make it ready in twelve weeks. I was thinking today that maybe pot size has a correlation with length of time it takes before you can harvest?
