do you typically take from lower in the canopy....closer to the screen where its quite the jungle?
all thruout the canopy. i normally leave the top three full nodes of foliage. take everythng lower. but break it up in a few days doont pull too much at one time.

Yeah like wheels said, it is strain dependent on how much you need to pull and that will come with experience but you should definitely trim for better air flow and light penetration. It also lets you see the buds better. :blsmoke:

Many arguments ensue when questioning foliage removal (if you want one, ask Uncle Buck ). What's often a concern for scrog gardeners is exactly what you mention, and others have commented about. As a result of the density created by manipulating the plants growth pattern into a flat plane, problems arise if attention is not taken to insuring conditions are less than conducive to possible issues. (ie. Powdery Mildew, Gray Mold, etc.)
Plant structure is an evolutionary development which serves many purposes; when manipulated, some of that benefit is lost. The benefit of trellising can far outweigh the risks presented however, if adequate steps are taken to insure a healthy environment.

Please advice its week 4 in veg, should i top them?? im still quite new to this. This time round screen does look better 6 plants, i belive 3 jack herrers, 2 k trains, 1 church. So far i simply stretch them to the sides and then leave it for few days, and then again.

Bruv flip to 12/12 Now...


I am telling you this only because you still have a final stretch in flower to worry about....
you Have done a great job with creating a bush...

Its not to late to top your girls but I normally top after my 8-10 Node
Your way pass that...the good part is that if you top now & flip to 12/12
You can use the final flowering stretch to fill the North & South region of your tent

Just keep pushing half your growth towards the back ...& the other half towards the front of your space...
If you want to TOP her...let her recover for 5 days...& then flip...you can do that too

get your flower feeding ready...you want your plant focus on budsite product in wks 1-3...pk boost in 3-5...ripen in 6-8....flush 9-10
(I run everything in 10-14 wks)

I hope I helped...

Ive got a quick question for all you scrog experts...im 5 weeks into flowering and everything is going great, but my canopy is becoming incredibly dense with fan leaves. I was curious if its ok to trim a few fan leaves to allow for better airflow through the canopy or am i better off just letting them go?

thanks in advance
Remove the lower leaves and within the canopy pull leaves for air flow and also remove any shading bud sites. My strain shark leaves actually show me when to pick, leaf stems turn purple and the leaf droops.. As the plant ages leaves turn from energy producers to energy suckers, it is at this point when a good grower starts removing. Look for the suttle signs.

There are a lot of people that will disagree but it worked for me when I was scrogging.

BRUV,

Sorry brother, I missed you back there. Topping just prior to flowering can create some issues. I would suggest allowing the growth to emerge from the topped/fimmed sites before flowering. (ie. let the new tops become tops)

I need images folks, anyone wanna experiment?

The SCROG cloner -

Heres the concept. Each top that makes it through the screen, is a new clone. Allow a full canopy, select best tops and leave them. Remove all other growth EXCEPT LOWER FOLIAGE!, yes LEAVE LOWER GROWTH. Allow each top to emerge through the screen and become "clone size" above (respective noding). Place airlayering sites at screen level (see Airlayering in previous pages via thread search option). Once rooted, remove as clone and cut off excess branching down to the next node. Over the next few weeks, new tops emerge, and you start over. This can produce hundreds of clones a month, from a single mother. This can allow the grower to keep the rooted clones attached to the mother (staying within plant number limits etc), and cut for orders. Hydroponic or Soil/soiless applicable.

Mine is a ebb n flow, flood an drain system... lucas formula with sweet and moab.

veg for 4 weeks in another room then i put inside flower room and pushed all branches down and holding them which kinda super crops them. Then lowered screen on them. Tucked for first week of flower and 2 days after the end of first week i did a huge tuck on them both.

need advice! looking to scrog for the first time (soil)

will have a 2' x 4' flowering area, what pot size and how many for maximum yield? should i just do a single 10 gal container plant or a couple 5 gal?

any pros and cons from those experienced would be helpful
