2k querkle scrog

Thought I'd share this grow. Started with 8 querkle clones rooted in one liter pots. My set is as follows.
2- 1k matrix ballast
2- sun systems lowpro hoods with 8" ducting and a vortex fan.
1- ideal air 12,000 BTU AC
1- 70 pint GE dehumidifier
1- 50 Pound co2 tank with regulator
8- 15 gallon smartpots with 40 liters of straight canna coco in each, fed with canna coco nutrients (A+B, rhizo, zyme)
The room is 8'x11' with a 7' cieling. The screen is 52" x96" and 18" off the floor (6" above the lip of the pots.
Room temps run between 78f and 84f.
Humidity is between 50 and 60.
Co2 runs between 800 and 1400ppm.
The plants are TGA querkle. Got lucky with a indica dominant pheno. Turns a beautiful purple the last two weeks of flowering. In my past soil grows it has proven to be a bitch in veg. Doesn't gain much higth, but sure gets bushy with hundreds of side branches.
Also should mention this is my first coco grow in many years.
Any comments or constructive suggestions are welcome.
Some pics of the setup. And the first day of transplant February 14th.

Day 10 in veg. Screen in place.

And 14 days into veg. This pheno has stretched a lot (in soil) in the first 2-1/2 weeks of flower, so lights are getting flipped one day next week. So far I'm very impressed with the canna lineup. It took my other 5k soil room with twelve plants three weeks to get to this point.

Nice work brother... Here's my set up 2 4x4 tents with a Scrog set up one has critical 2.0 and other has sensi super skunk 2/28/16 flipped to flower. They both have 9 plants in them in 12 liter pots. First time for a Scrog for me. Hope I'm doing it right lol

Looks like your going to have yourself a chunk of budz there! This is my first true scrog, as well as my first coco grow in years. Keeping my fingers crossed that things keep going this good. Good luck to you as well my friend!

Thank you brother good luck to you too... Looks like your going to have your hands full 15 gallon pots omg.. I wish I'm in Italy And grow in a little one bedroom apartment.. But I don't live there. I'm from New Jersey moved back to my country after 43 yrs in the USA miss it crazy. Anyway nice meeting you I'll keep you posted and same with you ttys

That's my Instagram page from when I lived in the USA in the pic is Jamaican dream by Eva seeds I grew that bitch strong as hell. But not a heavy yielder.

That's was my OG KUSH BY DINAFEM IF YOU SENT ME A REQUEST YOU CAN CHECK OUT MY PICS HAVE OVER 3000 lol

Wow those are some nice nugs! Is your Instagram name the same as here?

Hey brother yes that's my Instagram name here too but let me know if you send a request so I can log in and accept I have another personal page but that's my growing page.. PERFORZALAERBA

Let me know what your Instagram name is cause mines private I only let a few people peak lol

I been growing for years in the USA NOW IN ITALY bug it's my first Scrog set up but I think I'll be ok I hope.

Here's one of my 4x8 veg tents in the USA

Looking like Wednesday is going to be the magic flip date! A full 12 days faster then soil. Not to bad when you consider there are only 8 plants in soil, compared to 12 in soil. Both covering approximately the same square footage screen.

This is the reason I love canna.
I had a question about flushing their coco the final one to two weeks. My question was, everything I've read, that makes sence, says never to flush with plain water in coco. Always use a dillute nutrient solution. I use canna coco and canna nuts according to their light/normal feed chart, and the chart shows no nuts the final one to two weeks, only a doulbe dose of cannazyme. My question is, won't this wash out all the benificials that have built up over the cycle?
Here is their email back to me. These guys Rock.
Hello,

Thanks for the question. The reason you need to maintain the minimum level of nutrient application is to finish displacing the ions given off by the coco so that it washes out and does not affect the nutrient ratio and subsequent uptake. At the end, you really need to flush for 3 days to 2 weeks based on things like feed levels and crop grown. This also resets the Phosphate buffer so that it performs as a new medium again at crop start. It will not specifically affect microlife levels except as follows as you continue to set up the old coco medium for reuse.

After crop, it is a great idea to pull the medium out of direct production for a couple weeks, up to a month is really good. Then, before reuse, you give it a re-hydrating watering with a nutrient slurry at beginning levels, and allow it to drain well. Then plant the new plants and irrigate again fully with a full beginning feed as is normal. Yes, live things die out, but the spores remain to come back again. Also, this will hold down the excess salts and insure they drain properly.

Everything else sounds good!

Hope this helps,

Ralph B.

Nice setup

Thank you!

Good shit man! Looking forward to seeing this!

Day six into flowering. The girls are going gangbusters. It's become abvious I should have flipped the lights a few days earlier. This is by far one of the better grows I've ever done. Going to give all credit to canna on this one.
On another note, the side by side comparison with canna coco bricks and botanicare coco bricks is going well. Above ground there is not much noticeable difference. Both plants are robust, green, and looking happy. The plant in the canna has grown slightly bigger/bushier compared to the botanicare. The real noticeable difference is in the root structire. The canna smartpots are loaded with roots, top to botom. Tips blowing out the sides of the bags. The botanicare, not so much. Lots of roots coming out the bottom of the bags, but hardly any coming out the sides. Not sure why this is, but it hasn't seemed to affect the growth to much. Like I said above, the canna plants are only slightly more robust/bigger. I have been fallowing cannas feed chart to a T, and it seems to be working well. I did notice that as I went from the light feed schedule to the normal (slowly over a week), that I started to get a tiny bit of nute burn on the tips of the leaves. Nothing I am to concerned about though.

Here are a couple side by side pics of day one on Feb 14th the first day of veg, and today march 8th the sixth day of flowering. I can't believe it's less then a month getting to this point. If this keeps up, I'll be able to grow an extra round every year!
