Are the plants supposed to grow into te scrog or can you add it afterwards and put the plants where you want the scrog to go?

Depends on how/if you get them ready for the screen. I have a separate veg setup to save time so mine aren't put under a screen at first, I top and LST them so they're spread, then I move them into the flower tent and drop the screen on them, veg them in for about a week and put them into flower. You can do it either way, just gotta plan ahead if you aren't using the screen from the start.

Okay..
I'm in need of help
I was arranging my light in my scrog and trying to get a distant branch underneath the good led llight. Long story short a decent sized branch broke and is not only partially attached to the main stem. I tried it up to keep it together but I feel it is going to die. I don't know what to do with it, I want to try and keep anything I can from it. Should I try to clone what I can? I'm about 2 weeks into flowering

Hey, newbie grower here, not yet embarked on my first grow, but I'm definitely gonna want to Scrog to maximize my yield since I'm just doing a closet grow in a tent indoors. I've been looking at a few different strains and I think I've settled on THC Bomb, I've heard it gives monster yields, I'm curious how the strain responds to scrogging or if there are any special concerns with scrogging it. Anybody here Scrogged a THC Bomb and could offer advice? I'm also wondering how far over the grow medium I should place the screen with this strain in particular, any help would be much appreciated.
For the screen I make a wood frame out of cheap 2 by 4's, drill tiny eye bolts every 3 inches and then weave string line for the scrog. It's a bit of a time investment initially but once the frame is set its really easy to restring if need be. It also allows you to pick the exact hole size you want in any shape
Its also really cheap. 15 bucks of framing 2 by 4's, 5 dollar pack of eye hooks, 5 bucks of string line.

You can scrog almost any strain out there. The only thing I don't like scrogging is extremely short, stocky indicas. Really compact node spacing makes the plant not grow into the screen well. I don't know anything about that strain but I'd say give it a shot. It's supposed to be a mix. Screen height depends on how big of an area you are covering with the plant. I generally keep the screen about 12 inches from the medium and grow my plants fairly large. You can put it closer especially if your plants don't need to cover a significant square footage.

I have a question about screen material choice. What would be better, a screen made from pvc pipes and plastic safety fencing with 2in holes or the same pvc pipe and put in eye hooks every 2 1/2 in and use string. I was thinking the plastic screen might be better because it would hold the plants in place better. My friend says to use the string because it is easier to work with. Any thoughts? Thanks
I prefer using string but that might be a bit of a problem with the pvc. I like to pull the string very tight so theres not a lot of give in the screen and it would most definitely bend pvc pipe the way I do it. I use cheap 2 by 4s instead. I dont think I would use the safety fencing due to the decreased light penetration and sharpish edges

I used weed eater plastic line on my frame,cheap and tough but a little hard to stretch it tight.

the firmer the screen, the better the ScrOG. Place the screen a "fists distance" from the top of the pot, so you will be able to get under the screen and trim up things. Again, ScrOG is about controlling height and space...with the firmer (like metal) screens, your plant will stay more in place, resulting in an easier to control ScrOG.
for a 250 watt ScrOG grow, I used the bottoms of metal "basket" like drawers found at Home Depot or wherever, in the desks they sell. I cut off the sides and just used the bottom. I'd be willing to bet there's a better ScrOG Screen out there, but that's what I chose and it worked wonderfully. PLants were not able to push the screen up, nor was the screen just resting on the plant. I tied the screen to the top of the pot using homemade support cables I made by twisting 3 lengths of wire together to make a stiff support rod. My second attempt at ScrOG, on my 250 watt, I pulled 8 oz. That was only my 3rd grow ever. If you use a 1kw light, run two 2'x3' screens side by side, to make a 4'x3' screened area, you can get nearly 2 lbs easy.
again, i would suggest the firmest screen you could come up with...as a flexible screen goes against the purpose of a ScrOG screen.

u could do one in that space. what type of lighting are u planning on using? also u may want to keep the plants as low as possibly. what type of growing medium are u using?
You've got 4 square feet, go with one plant.
You could get away with a 250 watt (62 watts psf) but you've got over 6 feet vertical so heat shouldn't be an issue as long as it is well ventilated. I'd go with a 400 watt (100 watts psf).
