I just did this for the first time myself, but the main thing is there needs to be at least some bud growth, but you want 4-6 weeks for the seeds to have time to form. So generically around week 4 of flower.

That looks fantastic bigv mate. You took the whole even canopy idea and well, followed it.



My first scrog, didn't read up on anything and just kind did what i did and well it's a bit out of control :)

Yeah I flower with the T5 so an even canopy is kinda important to keep the light close. Hey I was planning on doing 2 plants next grow in a couple 16 gallon totes. Would having a large container like that do anything for my next SCROG?

Since i've started using DWC i've gone from 4 to 3 to 2 to 1. Doesn't seem to make a difference, they just tend to take up the space available. The root mass on that plant is pretty much identical to the combined root amss of when i had 4 plants, and 3, and 2. That plant was vegged till the screen was full, and then i let them grow upwards once under 12/12, so everything above the screen is from the flowering stretch :)

Hey bigv, i just started following this thread and I see that you are using T5's. I have some T5's that I've been using for supplemental lighting for my hps. (been growing vertical, getting ready to switch) What kelvin # bulbs are you using. Do you use a mixture of blue and red, what kind of results do yo get compared to hps? Thanks in advance!

I run 3000k Aggro-Max bulbs start to finish. I dont mix the spectrums for a few reasons. 1. Bulbs are $12 ea. and I dont feel like spending the money. 2. I am not trying to grow big leaves I am trying to grow big buds. 3. I dont believe it will make a measurable difference in a SCROG. As far as answering your question about how it compares to HPS I need to explain me to you. I am a hobby grower. I dont sell weed and have no desire to have more pot than I need. I grow because it is fascinating and I dont think it is wise to pay good money to buy shit weed when you can have good weed for next to nothing. I use the T5 because it fits my style and is a better light for a small SCROG for ME. It emits a flat plane of light that hits my flat screen evenly and the heat is much easier to control and I believe that my flat 30,000 lumens 2" over my canopy is more beneficial that a 50,000 lumen 400 HPS 12" away. It just works for me.

Two Cents - Overall plant health is directly seen in overall size and health of the flowers and vis versa. A plants ability to uptake nutrients controls its abiltiy to produce. The more healthy a vegitative plant you have, the greater its ability to photosythesize and produce healthy flowers. "Keep your leaves happy and healthy and never forget their essential role in your overall bud production." For every action there is an equal and oposite reaction. Healthy plants = healthy buds.

Hey Scroggers,

This is my second grow. My first Hydro grow and my first DWC (bubbler) as well as my first scrog. So far so good, I'm only pushing 2 plants. I'm going to start ordering seeds so I can have them on deck when needed..
:peace:
Ciao,
Pure...

This is Feminized Full Moon Strain from Nirvana. My first pure sativa grow ever, and I'm really looking forward to it. I'm surprised that is looks so much like all the other Indica strains I've grown. Well here are some pics hope you enjoy:peace:

Full moon is "mostly" sativa and Thai, thats why she looks like what most would typically concider an indica look. Great Job Wolf! Looking good as you always do! Conditions control the look of your crops too, maybe why you feel they look similar; same set up.

DescriptionWe came across this beautiful marijuana strain on one of our many research trips to Southeast Asia; to be precise, at the Full Moon party held monthly on the Thai dream island of Koh Phangan. Nirvana's Full Moon is everything you would want Thai weed to be like. This totally tropical Cannabis Sativa packs a trippy, almost spooky, visual high. Under high wattage bulbs, its popcorn buds become tight and heavy. Full Moon has a sweet marijuana scent and an unmistakably Thai spicy flavour.

Indica / Sativa:Predominantly SativaPlant type:IndoorPlant height:TallEffect:High (cerebral, heady effect)Flavour:spicy / herbalAverage yield:350 - 450 (g/m² in SOG)Flowering period:12 - 14 weeksWhite strain:YesMedical:YesFeminized:No

Looking at the stuff you guys are growing up, i think i must be vegging mine for too long before the switch, trial and error as they say :) still looks like it's gonna be a good haul, might be tempted to buy a set of scales for the occasion.
