There is absolutely no need for feet of barren stalk on any plant... it's a waste of space and energy.

I understand where you are coming from me personally I like a shallow canopy I can get under with foliar sprays and dry out with fans. I've had a run a botrytis once, I rather play it safe.
These plants grew up out in the garage unattended for the most part so they were already pretty unyielding when I brought them into the flower room.

There will come in a morning you walk in there and go WTF! It will be impossible to keep up with tucking as there are just so many new leaves from overnight. At that point you better pray that you flipped. I just took the clones to the veg room, I am about to hit that point so I'm flipping tonight. Harvest date: 21 August.

I have a couple of autos under a scrog outdoors. Its been about a week since the hairs have started to come out of new shoots so I know its in flowering mode. The reason I ask is because ive heard that a plant stops stretch at around the end of the third week. Is that true? Also, how high do you want the branches to go through the net before full flower? Is it 4 inches, 6, or 8?

 

[ANC]

depends on how long they run in total... normally somewhere from 2 to 4 weeks

Found the slide. Kinda interesting. They used aphids to test translocation.

You mean YOU can't keep up lol You get out what you put in. Don't grow more than you can keep up with maybe lol and don't crowd your grow room

I've been doing this

At what point do you stop tucking the branches under the net and let them grow through?

Lol I don't think you understand the concept at all. What I do obviously isn't scrogging so I'll just have to make a different thread. Scrogging is just the closest thing I have found to how I have grown most of my life..... but still far from what I do. Keep on the grind boys and good luck.

I just went back to the first page of the thread and I think it said stop tucking at the end of week 2.

It's kinda tricky to get in there and get a shot but you can see a little of what I'm talking about. I like to tie both sum leaves sets down or else one will still try to shoot up.... or sometimes pulling it down by the opposite sun leave to get it to twist the way you want. Just experimentation. Also stretchy plants I will just pull branches that are shooting up and actually pull them down under other branches to weave it to the hight I want. I'll see if I can find a pic of that if I can too.

Ive never seen this type of "scrog." Interesting.

I wasnt talking about your scrog. I was asking questions about a scrog im doing at the moment. Sorry for the confusion.

I feel ya..... it's dancing that fine line of trying optimize yield without sacrificing the quality. Yeah my bad I think threw a screw ball into this thread.... I'll try to make a thread on growing low. Finishing week 3.

 

[Lucky Luke]

Still a long way to go.

Very nice Char.

How easy or difficult is it to move plants/clean with a scrog set up?

No way I could move my plants.
I park a shop vac at the end and crawl under to clean.

In my case cleaning is a pain.

I have the scrog net to be under
And just to get in the room I have to duck under the secondary support netting.

Your mileage may vary but a largish
Scrog in a small room isn't conducive to maintenance

Dark Plasma (DP1) self supporting scrog and easy to move about.

I like the idea of several units on wheels. Super versatile

@charface just took this image a few minutes ago, im in process of figuring out if I can get two levels in the cab for scrogging hence the old burple vipar led with a couple a cree 3070's strapped on. Been running them all day with doors closed max temp was 27c at both canopy levels and the bedroom is 32c+, middle of a heat wave here in the Ireland. Rare thing lol..
