I want to trim it all under the net but i dont want to stress them, still debating if its worth taking the risk. as far as watering goes it is a bitch. Luckily the tent opens on the opposite side, but i will probably end up buying a small water pump to deal with that problem. Yeah the COBs are honestly pretty sweet tech, these panels are soo much brighter than my friends 800w HPS. But we will see what they can produce, i have a grow thread in my sig if you wanted to check it out!

Couple of things to remember when scroging. First Trim all that shite under the net. It will only stress them slightly but the pay off is in the top cola's. I'm on my 10 run scroging and I cant stress it enough. Those little bastards down there suck the life outta the tops. Second, make sure you give each cola enough room to expand and mature. Packing them in there side by side will defeat the purpose. I've scroged with 60 tops and scroged with 30 and yielded more with less cola's. The plants can tell how much room they have to grow and you will end up with longer colas with less density.

Mine look like a big fuzz ball. Thc bombs and 2 cherry pies. They are short bushes. I want to maybe flip in one week, but they are only about a 10inches from the bucket. Makes them about 19 inches from the ground. I don't know their stretch over any thing. Do you think I can bump net up another foot, switch to 12/12, and let them stretch up to the net to make an even canopy?

I know has to do with genetics but on average how much of a stretch do you guys see when flipping? More on smaller busy plants I guess.

UPDATE:
Hello again growers :bigjoint: Today I am at day 21 flower on my Grape God from next gen seeds, and got some buds showing. Thought I would show you guys how shes coming along. I am thinking the stretch is done. It was pretty minimal! I did read that GrapeGod was a low stretching strain, so nothing out of the norm there. I am thinking I have reached the point where it is basically on auto pilot now. Maybe trim a leaf here, or re-tuck a branch there....but for the most part, i think my scrogging duties are done...

question . im new to the scrog method. and i had the top cola taller than other so i tied it down to be the same as the others. was this the right move?? i have another plant which im about to do the same idk if pics helps but the second pic all are about the same height now. also i put light 1000w hps to 24 in from scrog is this too close.?? should i take the light to top of grow tent and just let them do them. and should i wait for the lower branches reach scrog or clip then off? thanks, some are just a inch or 2 from it

Ah cool, mine feel like they been sluggish. How long did you veg for, and how tall did it get?

I was reading people said it had like no stretch. I really hope I get some from them to keep up.

If you can keep colas same height that's good. Careful with your metal rack and hps, it can heat it up and hurt the plants.

i got the clone . and vegged for just 2 weeks . in a 3 gal. and i would say about 1m or 3 ft. but i lst them so if it was to look like a christmas tree it would be about 4 ft.right now, but i tied down the top so all the secondary kolas now think they the top so she still getting it stretch on., it was one bushy plant. and nice smell going on day 25 of flower. i wished i would have put in a 5 gal
