Hello everyone. Ok here is my strawberry blue plant. She was started from seed, she will be 9 weeks old on monday. I have her in a 5 gallon smart pot. She is in a medium of happy frog soil with extra perlite.. I feed her GH 3 part nutes. I ph the water to 6.2 to 6.5. She has been growing outdoors in sunny northern california. I been lsting her from very early growth. She has alot of tops as you can see in the pictures. So Ineed to move her indoors. I will be growing her in a tent with just a 150 watt hps and some cfls for extra light. I was wanting to know if I should keep her lsted the way she is now and flower her. Or should I remove the lst and scrog her under a screen? What would you do?IMG_20150522_192227.jpgIMG_20150522_192235.jpg IMG_20150522_192244.jpg IMG_20150522_192257.jpg IMG_20150522_192353.jpg

I would flip to flower now if you just have 150w +cfl to work with. Only if she is healthy of course.

She is very healthy. I wanna flower her now indoors. I was just asking if I should keep her lsted the way she is now. Or undo the lst and scrog her instead? Thank you for your reply.

At 2 1/2 months old,and 150watts. Flower now without touching anything. The scrog might not even give you any more then without it since you vegged and lst'ed that long with only 150 watts on hand. Dont worry though, beautifully trained plants. You will get a nice return if you keep them healthy. When you get into atleast 100w per plant, then scrog!

Yeah or even depending on how much space you have veg her longer and get a bigger yield, mine as well fill the space you have.

well she is out growing the smart pot. I dont have much space to tie her down. That was also a reason I was thinking of a scrog. So she could veg alittle longer with the screen holding her down still.

Throwing a screen over pretty much just simplifies LST. But you need more lights and more plants to make it worth it because that 150 hps will grow fat buds towards the center and smaller buds towards the outer branches wether you scrog or not. Vegging even longer will just widen her even more and you will eventually hit a point of diminishing returns when over-vegged under-lighted. I would flower now, but its up to you. Hell if i threw that plant in my cab it would out stretch the others. 10 weeks veg is just a cunt hair overboard for me. But you have one plant so you will be fine.
