Alright, I know this thread is half a year old but this is so stupid I have to chime in. You count flowering time from the the day you flip to 12-12. Why? Because if not then there is absolutely no reason to count at all. The whole point of counting flower period is so that you or the next...

Grow all three of them. I run 6 plants in a 5 ft by 10 ft scrog and do quite well with it but have hit significantly higher g/sq m with twice that number.

Sweet setup taviddude. Could you elaborate on your system a bit it looks similar to something I was thinking of doing with 4 by 8 trays flood and drain with the roots just hanging out between net pots.

For a reference you count from the day of flipping to 12/12. If a seed company says something will finish in 49 days...well actually it will probably take 65, never mind. If someone you know tells you a strain takes 70 days to flower they are talking about 70 days of 12/12.

Im not sure if that can technically be referred to as a "sea" of green

Welcome to the scrog!

Ha. I agree. Go get some black widow if you want the real deal. Not a big fan of the company but I have run Slh a few times and had absolutely no problems with the seeds and have had some of my best yields with it so just go for it. The company might be a big cup buying turd but your round...

The math is correct. The power is all 120 - I had an electrician come in and put in 5 20 amp circuits. For the lighting controller I just use basic digital timers. If I set them all exactly they only drift about a minute apart over the course of a bloom which is fine by me. Speaking of blue...

Thanks, its two rooms with 2,000 watts each. One side is 4 ft 8 by 8 ft 5 due to space considerations and the other side is a full 5 by 10. The veg plants for the next round are about 12 inches topped when I harvest and its about 6 weeks before I flip the next round. The veg time is a killer...

I scrog up to 6 different strains at a time with no issues. It can get a little funky if you accidently throw a 14 week landrace in with 9 week strains but for strains with similar finishing times it works out great. The pics of the further along plants are ak and atf. And the other pics are...

Those badass ballasts are shit. I had nothing but problems with the one I had. Guy at the growshop said they had a 90 percent return rate on them before they stopped selling them. I have 5 other digital ballasts that have given me no problems whatsoever over the course of 3 years

I actuallly prefer the growth habits of topped clones to topped seedlings. I usually leave 5 or 6 nodes and find that they all grow out pretty evenly and fill my scrog better than seedlings. On seedlings I top for 4 Uncle Ben style but find that with some strains the top pair maintain too much...

I ordered from Dr Greenthumb and recieved my seeds as advertised. They were relatively easy to contact by phone as well. I just didn't care for the strain I happened to order...

The paper towl method is a great way to check germination rates in a seed stock. I'm not sure when this nursery industry technique got commandeered as an appropriate method of starting seeds you actually want to keep.

Topping once should be more than sufficient with that many plants in a 4 by 4. When scrogging the mains become not really mains as they lose apical dominance. Place the plants so you get even coverage not so the mains all go to the middle. I would try and fill the screen before flipping if its...

I've got this one! I run a stationary scrog and just helped a friend design a modular drainage system for a 8000 watt scrog. So there are a couple good options. 1. ) Use 3/4 inch bulkhead fittings on rigid saucers that are significantly larger than your pot size. For not much money you can...

First of all the beauty of the scrog is that any area you decide on is the perfect area. You can grow 8 plants under a thousand watt or just one. You will train the plants to grow into whatever shape you want. Second 6 by 8 is too big of footprint for a 600 watt. I don't think you need the...

I grew this for my first grow. 5 vanilla kush with 1 super lemon haze. The slh yielded double the best vanilla kush and was much much better. This was my first introduction to the idea that you would grow, breed, promote and sell something that had not one characteristic worthy of any of the...

When I visited large scale nursery production facilities they definitely only use distilled water to touch the 100,000 seeds getting planted each day. It has a huge effect on germination rates and seedling success.

No. Or possibly yes.
