I should really grow some balls and do a big grow again.
I'm about to stop scrogging and go sea of green or just indoor trees again.

Sick of the crawling around the net fir food, water n maintenance.
Its not fun anymore, plus I let my room get messy because its a pain to clean it

Yeah, I keep my nets under a meter wide, two plants deep max. Done the snail on the carpet thing with the 90 plants.
My baby clones are going into a test bed for SOG. I have done one other test with tubes with water flowing through. Clones were rooted under 12/12 and they grew respectable buds. Could probably fit hundreds to a light.I'm making an effort this run to pick up after myself and all the plants are in trays so it is easy to sweep up the leaves. These are some leggy little plants vegged under CFL.

Yeah, my vision is a roughly 6x8 raised bed sea of green.
Im running 2 1000w air cooled
W sunmaster full spectrum bulbs on movers.

I think I could get a very respectable sog with a bit of practice.

Cloning that much at once would suck balls though

That is some good vegging. Shame, my girls were neglected out in the garage.... Its fucking cold, they were lucky if they saw me once a week.
I have a veg room now that I have more lights. I regret not running larger bags though. that always gives a bit more heft for the same canopy.
Yeah I love bigger bags, people say its too much but not in my experience.
They hold more of everything.
Foot, water, roots, its a nice safety buffer. If I miss a watering no big deal

Just make a large tub with clear lid or stick two clear tubs face to face... fill the bottom one with 5 inches of coco and just stick your branches straight in there., they root almost 100% of the time.
I just pull them out and rinse them off when I am ready to transplant out of coco.

Ill have to give it a try.
The strains Im working in my ez cloner are really pissing me off.

All my shit is right and they are struggling hard anyway.

Last time i just shoved them in soggy peat pellets and they had no problem.

Here's my second attempt at a scrog:

IMAG0464.jpg

Strain is HSO's Black D.O.G. in a 7 gallon fabric pot (ROLS) on a perlite SIP. Tent is 31"x31"x71". Lights are four QB120s on a Meanwell HLG-240H-C2100A. At 175w for now, but will bump it up to 250w once it's well into flowering.

Wishing I'd gone with a 10 gallon, but I'll just have to make the best of it. This grow was an afterthought with a spare clone, so I don't even know how long it was in veg before the screen went in. Planning to fill the screen pretty damn near 100%, as this pheno doesn't stretch that much.

That is it exactly..... spiral with the rope

I nearly found a video yesterday where someone was doing it right. except he spread out the branches so only the tips reached the net instead of going straight up and then out 90 degrees along with the net.

I do like the flexibility of using a rope net.

Whats the concensus now days on canopy height over the screen? Im using a 1k hps in a xxl refector over a 5x5 scrog in a tent. Hortilux super hps bulb will be brand new day 1 of flower, 12 inch rotating fan in the corner.

In past runs i would tuck and weave just about till stretch was over, leaving me about a 4ish inch deep canopy, but it seems like people are going thicker than that now. The plant is in a 35 gallon container, just revegged, an is now nearly if not over a year old. My oldest girl ever! The 5x5 is compleatly full minus maybe 5% but ill be vegging it another little bit while i wait on bulbs to get here and possible advise. Do the exhale co2 bags help during lights out? Thats the only time the exhaust could be turned off and the plants have a chance to use it, but i always thought co2 was for lights on... i know it would release co2 constantly but with the fan extracting air so fast i cant see it helping much but maybe im wrong.

i don't think co2 is worth the effort in a non-sealed room. they're absorbing co2 during their day, when the exhaust fan is running, so i think you're absolutely correct. no point in enriching at night, no photosynthesis happening in the dark, so co2 absorption is cut way down.

Thats always how ive thought about it too. Unfortunatly i cant seal the room during the summer, maybe this winter ill revisit the idea.
