Would it be worth doing an outdoor ScrOG grow with 2-4 plants and perhaps greenhousing it? Would it significantly increase yield to make it worth while or should I just stick to regular LST methods like tieing down?? I want enough bud to last me till next season :P haha

Look up uncle bens topping technique, go for 4 heads and just LST them down a scrog is useful under a HPS because it doesn't penetrate like the sun, the HPS in the sky penetrates far better and makes scrogging pretty redundat IMO.

Ok thanks chunky, yeh I wasnt too sure so thought I would ask the question :) I will prob just tie them down

BTW you may be sceptical of the topping techniques but it works and instead of LST and tieing down, you could just crush the stem bend it over and do it that way while the shoots are young and not a hard woody bit, it's easier and I think it works better than LST, I've heard it reffered to as FIM but thats more of a topping technique that requires removing material.

Anyone able to suggest some quality nutes (from bunnings or other places in australia) for vegging and flowering stages? Using hempy buckets under 400w hps. I don't mind spending the money for quality, I just don't know how to tell the shit products from the good ones. Growing in perlite.

if u want quality goto your local hydro store and pickup a 2part or 3 part solution.
 
Hey all very important question lol, any suggestions on good sites to import a new glass piece to sa through? Had a waterfall until the dog smashed it the other day and my extreme q 2 isn't cutting it for me. I really have my eye set on a bushmaster buzzard, or cyclone whatever, only really found it on everyonedoesit and i've read a few sketch reviews on them

Wk 10 Flower for the SLH from Greenhouse Seed Co. almost done, got up early just as lights went off to get a few snaps without HPS, sorry for poor quality pics, it was 5.50am and i was half asleep, will get HD shots before and on harvest, There dense and thick, frosty and hell and just keep swelling each day.

yeah, every week i would weave during veg and every 2nd week during flower until wk 6 then left em, the one on right was topped the one on left was fimmed. i will get better pics from a mates HD cam, i will be collecting off him friday, on Sunday trichomes will be re-checked and then harvest if ready.
 
I'm waiting a few weeks before i plant mine outdoors, just got some bag seed, no idea what strain it is though :\ haha
 
well its been over 25 days since i ordered from www.marijuana-seeds.nl....nada...nothing....zip.... the tracking said it had been passed onto australia post on the 28th so 21 days is a little long to be expecting them now....looks like customs have become competant all of a sudden....i guess after their screw ups with equine flu and letting foriegn murderers/rapists and criminals escape and enter our borders at will, that they thought it was a good move to put their efforts into stamping out minor seed importation...pull your head out of your ass customs.....you have bigger issues to worry about than weed.....
 
Just a couple questions haze, not sure if u posted the answers already but how big is the grow room ur growing those in and how many lights are you using and whats the wattage of them? Thanks :)
 
JT91, the room/tent is 1m x 1m x 2m, its a small space man, the lights used throughout grow are a single lumatek 600w digital ballast, during veg i used a powerplant retro fit metal halide lamp & during flower a 600w HPS lamp.

kevin murphy, well, despite the strain, in such a small space, your better to run bigger pots, less of them and scrog to maximize yield, i veg for 5-6 wks and start weaving as soon as the plant has 5 nodes, keep your lights low to help node spacing to minimum ( this is in the genetics of the strain and cant be controlled to an extent ), let your screen fill, weaving over and under, every branch that developed off a main branch gets the same over and under, once screen is filled, let it grow around 4-5 inches above screen than flower it and watch the cola carpet form, best of luck.

thanks for the advice mate..nice one..

anytime, with a good nutrient schedule and patience, you can replicate it easy, you can also do it outdoors, just make a frame and screen, keep it low, put your plant at one end of the screen, you could run it the length of your fenceline no higher than 2ft, gently bend your planted or potted plants main stem and start the over and under weave, weave off each branch and run it the length of the screen, top or fim to help it fill the screen during veg, a trelis of bud 2ft above the ground, now that would be sweet and easily achievable.
