hey guys!! who else is up all hours of the morning excited about their new grow ;) I just dosed my girl up with 50ml PGR part A stop this stretch happening!, time to get these buds growing!, i initially added 40 ml, (1ml per litre) didn't notice a difference overnight, so another 10 ml, and she straight away changed vigor, this tells me it has taken effect, now i watch closely at her health, and will flush in 2 days time and get her ready for Part B PGR :) I can't believe this is happeneing already, i haven't even had time to think about this grow, let alone smoke barely anything of last grow!!, oops smash hash is makin me a dreamer all day

Day 5 flowering i got it wrong before i said it was day 5 yesterday....

UPDATE az med scrog day 8 flower!
Been only using quarter strength of all my nutes and plants are looking lush and vigorous! I feed 1 gallon to each plant every 3 days,I water with distilled h20 and hygrozyme between feedings. I like to feed to them only when hungry, I hate to overfert, learned my lesson with that long time ago! Hygrozyme breaks down all nutrients to make them available.I like to hear my ladies bellies rumble a little before feeding!lol.I also added 1 ml per gallon of humbolts snow storm ultra(basically alfalfa extract=Triacantonal Bad ass growth inhibitor!and potash)Anyways, the grow is going awesome,screen is FULL! and getting fuller each day! I have to do an hour training sess each morning with them, tucking leaves and shoots! ill never make my screen 24 inches tall again! My fucking back hurts!lol.The plants would be about three and a half feet tall if the screen wasnt there its amazing how many budsites there are! the screen has 256 holes in it and i have plants stretching outside the pvc!.Ill continue to train until week 3 flower then i just have to keep tucking leaves and water.I also lowered my 1000 watt hps about 4 inches, it was 24 inches away from the canopy!You wouldnt believe how much more intensity 4 inches adds, thank you zo0t for pointing that out! Heres the pics, any advice or questions are welcome! PS check the second to last pic,mr nice is so happy shes sporting 9 blade leaves!

Thank you! the screen is 4ft by 4ft by 2ft high. it took four hours to make it! I took the time cuz if you tie it a certain way you can adjust each hole! its awesome that way cuz you dont always have to pull the whole shoot out of its hole put it in the next one. causing you to have to reposition the leaves etc. Instead you can just slide the box open or closed or whichever way u want it. in my pics, the screen looks all disproportionate! lol works great tho! My one upgrade would be to have a drain table on bricks to raise the whole setup a foot or two,Anyone wanting to do scrog just know that its alot of work! (especially with 1000 watts the girls grow FAST!) My back hurts cuz plants dont always cooperate when trying to tuck leaves and put budsites where you want them. i often find budsites completely covered by leaves from competing branches, that have grown a ton in one day! competing branches and a bunch of other thing you have to stay on top of if you want max yeild. Its nuts ive never seen growth like this! Im sticking with scrog for sure!

t2k, I just rigged my screen up and its the same as yours 4' x 4' and 2' high. I am putting only one plant under the screen. I am also using 1000 watt HPS and 400 watt HPS. Cant wait, its my 1st SCRoG project, I figure I go alittle big after seeing all these Legendary SCROGers on here!!!

Do you think I should raise the screen a foot higher like you mentioned????

1400w on 1 plant in a 16sq ft area?!? almost 90w/sq ft, that things gonna be a BEAST. IMO 2' should be more than enough, I've usually kept my screen 6-10" above the pot and am just now trying about 14-18" of space. Easier to maintain, thats for sure. I'm not sure about efficacy, and it definitely takes much longer to fill, as the plant has to be a foot taller to get the screen just as full as it wouldve been.

dude that plant looks super vigorous and healthy nice work! Its really up to you if you wanna raise it, i would tho! Is there a drain on that tray? if so id raise the legs on your screen a foot to add another tray or bucket or whatever underneath to catch your runoff.Thats what id do different with my setup, i have to wick runoff with clean towels! lol just keep the plant about 12 in from the screen some peeps like it 10 in but its preference. Your plant looks like shell stretch out so nice fill 60 percent of screen then flower train main colas to the outer portion of screen,

Do you think I am over doing it with the light??? I am also going to have 2 plants next to the screen. Those plants canopies will be even with the screen when Flowering.

Here,s a photo taken earlier as i said i let the plant tell me when it needs feed, i,m nearing the end of week 7 and the e.c is still only at 1.3. You,ll see some lighter coloured leafs apearing there to me that,s a sign that the feed strength needs increased now, 1.3 may seem a bit low but it,s the plant that in charge and it,s happy so i can only maintain it. atb Tcd

i just dont want to veg these plants anymore....already had them going for about 7wks and the tallest was almost 2' and the shortest 19"...i pushed the screen down to 18" from dirt...thats the closest i could get it...there's enough foliage to fill the screen im just hoping that it will make it to the screen before the stretch is over

Question:

Once the plant grows through the screen and the buds begin to form, for this example let's assume when the chunk and the rezzzzzz start packing between 30-40 on a 60 day strain, do you take out the fan leaves to let air through, or do you leave them because they are,"Food"?

Please assume a totally packed screen. I have found threads on here where it looks like the entire screen is basically weed. This gives me butterflies in my tummy and makes me rub my feet together. I must do this, I must........
