Will a SCROG help this grow?

Scrog-ing almost always makes for a better yield but also a longer time in veg. Have no expectation of yield just focus on keeping them healthy & you will get returns. Doing a scrog on your first grow could try your patience because you'll likely need to top them a couple times before you get branches long and bushy enough to weave into a net...then you've got to wait until it's full before flipping. So you are looking at another month of veg before you can begin flowering and then another 9-11 weeks until harvest. It'll be around Halloween for your 1st harvest; if you want to wait that long then go for it but I suggest you give these another few weeks and then flip them. Do a scrog for your 2nd or 3rd grow cycle when you've got a bit more exp. and time to veg them out.
I can say from my own exp that scrogging is the shit but the only way I could figure out how to veg plants long enough to fill up the screens was to have multiple grow areas to veg out. Youve got to fill out the screens before you flip & that takes time.....and time won't give me time and time makes lovers feel like they got something real.....

Thank you. That makes sense. I'll give them a couple more weeks, then flower them. I would like to do a scrog, but I'm gonna have to do more homework and start a grow specifically for it, training...etc
