I am of the opinion that a true scrog is height controlled, by the scrog screen, which needs to be rigid in order to truly accomplish this. A trellis bends horizontally and vertically thus not controlling the height of the plant. You say your trellis has 2 inch openings (too big to devote only one branch per hole, making your scrog either too spaced out to be as efficient as a scrog should be, or too crowded within each hole of the trellis to allow best bud growth), and does not "hold down" the plant, rather it holds it up. Not bashing your growing skills. Just saying, a lot of people trellis when they should be using a more rigid material. If you're trellising, you're not truly scrogging. No offense to you, or anybody else using trellises.

Anyone familiar with SCROGing Super Lemon Haze? Its definitely sativa dominant but I'm trying to figure out how many to grow for a 5x8 area. They are some stretchy plants and will fill up a screen nicely. As big as they get i was thinking 2 but maybe 3 max? any thoughts?
Thanks

How far above root level is your screen going to be? The stuff I have read says typically 1 plant per square foot. Having just done THAT, and 1 plant per 2 feet, (both at 12" above soil) I think I would go with 1 for every 2 on something overly stretchy. I am by no means a pro or anything, but I would probably go 3 or 4 (4 if you are going under 12")

12 plants, in 3 gallon pots, in a 5x5 is going to get pretty unmanageable with the screen at 24" IMO - but it WILL keep you busy! :mrgreen:

You guys think they've filled out enough to flip to 12/12 I was trying to let a couple smaller clones catch up but I'm not sure how much longer I can veg Without running outta space

hard to tell. depends what height you have and if you can raise the light, and how much stretch you're expecting. you can probably flip now or within a week or so.

personally, i would run the smaller stuff towards the center and the big shoots around the edge to get a "bowl" shape, better light distribution that way (imo).

Howdy Scrog Techs!
Scrolling through some nice jobs done well people!

So as many of you already know, I have haven't been in the best health the past few years and have been absent mostly.There have been ups and downs here and some super low downs, but this fella don't quit. With the help of fine folks only the cannabis community could appreciate the most, I am up and climbing.That said, I am here to pick back up and carry on with my people. I want to thank you folks for all the work you do helping others learn and grow as cultivators and liberators.
I would also like to thank you all for the countless images of work well done, and journal sharing. In 2009 when this started, there was not an expectation of grand value in such a thread however with the help of wonderful people like yourself, this resource was born and has flourished since. Through the rise and fall of other threads, sites, and even methods, Scrog knowledge and practice has carried on here, empowering others and providing the education needed to alleviate health problems, poverty, ignorance, and propaganda. It has provided knowledge that carries on into a career, a caregiver, a patient seeking ways of helping ones self. This independent method has gained popularity over the years and is now seen spanning the covers of the most well known magazines, web sites, and videos around the globe. Scrog has found its place and made its mark here, and because it has, we can all be thankful. Knowledge truely is power but also freedom. This resource, I am thankful for. You, who have made this resource what it is today, I am thankful for. Without each and everyone of you, and even those whom simply read, learn, and carry on, this could not be possible without you. As always, my hat is off to you! I am thankful to be alive, doing well, and carrying on once again WITH YOU!

MH/HPS lighting? - looking for how much space lost at the top of your grow area for hood, fans, space from lights to avoid burning, etc. I would say no HIGHER than 12" from the tops of your pots, Which I'm guessing are about 10 inches high or so? Somewhere between 8 and 12 is my vote... Too short and you can't maintain/water and such, and too high and it will get out of hand quickly.

I have been slowly working my way through this very large thread. Back around page 70 or 75 or so, a technique is mentioned where you switch to 24/0 for 48 hours at the end of week 5 to spur seemingly stalled bud growth. Does anyone do this regularly, or is it an act of desperation? It says it's NOT a recipe for balls, but if you catch the right strain, I think it could be a recipe for ScrOG disaster. The one hermie I had induced a bit of panic. I am guessing this is why most experienced guys ScrOG from clone - to be certain of the genetics you are working with.

Couldnt recomend photoperiod flopping during flower unless to achieve some sort of goal outside of the "norm". Sounds you have the idea. Most likely encourages production of pollen in most cases. Mostly from clone. Yes.
