this harvest im hoping to get around 24-30 OZ. once i have all of my new phenos selected i will be shooting for 40-48 OZ under the one light. sounds crazy i know; however my last setup i pulled 40 OZ per light routinely without a true SCROG more just a net so i think 48 OZ using SCROG is doable with the right plants probably even more once dialed in.

The #1 thing that needs to be accounted for with a proper SCROG is plant to screen ratio. You can't throw 20 gallons of soil below a 4'x4' screen, with 4 plants at 5gal and expect a tight grip on the screen from each (they only get 2'^2). You could go 1 in 20g and veg it for a while because before the switch all the main tops will have run under 8"+ of screen.
Still, there's nothing wrong with putting a ton of plants/medium under a screen with minimal weaving because the screen is still awesome support, and grants a great net to tie down to.

People always ask about veg/flip timing required for that optimal scrog experience, but the main mental image you need to form is of the chutes between the medium and the screen.
-How many plants do I have, and with that accounted for, how far horizontal can I run my chutes.
---Too many plants and there's no chance to weave horizontal because they're already on each other.

Personally I believe that the best SCROG method is grabbing 4x4 w/ 600w, or 5x5 w/ 1000w. Throw 1 plant in a 20gal+ DWC and veg it until the screen is just over half full, then flip. The yield that setup will make the extra veg days well worth it.

Final report.
1000w
5x5
1.5 lbs of high quality
prolly over a qp of hash material.

Could have done much better had I let my screen fill up a tad more.

I was thick in some areas and sparse in others.

I was a bit surprised by the amount of airy weed growing out of the same part of the screen as super dense weed.

Any ideas?

All plants were same batch same food etc.
Nice, the denser bud probably had a little more direct light.

Check out day 1.

FYI - Trellising ain't scroggin'
..... Is this a scrog...1 plant 1 k... Under a truffles trellis /screen.... Or do you feel there wasn't enough training with the up skirt in my 5x7 room... Or is it because the quantity of plants..? Just so I know where to post ....

Not sure what his definition of SCROG is (Screen of Green) but I'd say you have SCROG there and I have SCROG here...

So where is the example of the true SCROG? Oh and a pic or explanation of why this wouldn't qualify as SCROG?


Definition of Trellis:
1) a framework of light wooden or metal bars, chiefly used as a support for fruit trees or climbing plants.

Isn't SCROG essentially a horizontal trellis? Although a lot or growers use string and other things to make the actual screen. I for example use wire grid that you would use in a merchandising circumstance.

heres some pics I took a couple days ago. day 53 12/12 another 10 days or so and these ladies will be ready for the big chop.
glp scrog 2.JPG melon gums in the front half of the screen

scroggy.jpg ditched the stupid tent (too many issues work space, condensation etc) but when I got rid of the tent I hung the light to close got a bit of burn through the middle of the screen.
