Meezy,, my canopy is so uneven there's no way I could even guess.. lol.. I have hidden bud underneath a lot of the canopy that cant be seen until I start digging and pushing stuff aside... The scrog are getting bigger, but the blueberry is at a stand still it appears... .. I just loaded a little extra heavy... not using shooting powder, but I doubled my ginourmous,,, same thing just half the ratio....

yea, ihave some, but the camera phone just doesnt give an idea... I will try again this eve... I was looking back at my original journal and the plants ,, wow,, amazing how far they have come,,, and how much more comfortable I will feel on a new grow,,, i did find this snippit you wrote before we flipped...lol seems in a few areas , the race was won before it started,,, but thats ok,, looking back at these clones in the buckets , being only a few inches, and now what they are , I am thankfull for yours and everyones help and input,,, and Im a liitle proud of myself , but just little... heres your old post lol : "In light of the scrog impending scrog off, I am unable to divulge information concerning, timing, strains and techniques. Lets just say this, I think my last grow may pale in comparison to what I have in store for this one.

okay, so first off im grown in soil, but i'm thinking about practicing scrogging my plants and am wondering if doing them individually with something like tomato cages would be a good idea. also, the sig is amusing

Tomato cages..no. They would be good for intial scrog training (as many big branches as you can get) but the final SCROG screen has to be horizontal.

didnt realize it was a stupid question, but thanks for answering it anyway - i was wondering if it had to be horizontal.

I was just shitting you. At least you didn't tell me to eat a giant dick. LOL
The biggest advantage of the SCROG system is that you can ensure (or attempt to) get a nice big even canopy. You do this by pulling the growing shoots under the screen and training them horizontally. There comes a point of diminishing returns however based on what kind of buds you want and the growth form of your plant. When you train horizontal the plant starts to send off all kinds of side branches. If your not carefull then things can turn into a scraggly mess. Its easier than it sounds and I am still perfecting my methods but I am definitely doing allot of training on my veggin plants to maximize the number of LARGE, EVEN stems sot hat I can get 5-6 whopper buds per plant. Each weighing at least 1 oz.

The advantage of the scrog is the fact that the light can be lowered to give a nice even amount of light over the entire top,(only where bud sites are),, if you have a tree . the lower areas will not be getting as much as the top.. and the area on the lower budsites are cheated compared to the upper... with an even scrog light is used more efficiently and not wasted...you lose a lot of potential growing energy a few feet away from a light. reading a few scrog journals will help you understand this a little better...

To sum all of that up, there is no shade.

Lol. I'm organic as well but just not in the arrogant, elite, every single thing has to be composted by virgins wearing flower head dresses kind of way. Soil is just fine with me I just would rather towel up water than sweep up dirt in the basement
