My first grow and j know this is kinda up to the grower but this is a gorilla cookies clone. From when I got it till now it's been 4 weeks in veg. I'm running 1200 watt led with Canna nutriets in coco. I'm 24 inches away from my light and have about 10 more inches for my light to move up. This clone has been topped and super cropped and tied down and is just now coming through the scrog.. when should I flower? I dont wanna run out of space 3x3x6 tent but light hanging wont give me 6foot room. Plant is around 2 foot tall from top of soil.

You should use your scrog net and actually scrog it
You will get more yield and you wont have to worry about height

Ok. So from what I seen on most scrog they just let it grow up through the net.. are you mean more lateral growth? Like fanning the plant out more under the net?

Scrogging is not just letting them grow through.. you would have to keep tucking the new growth under the net until you have filled up the whole net with growth. It allows the new growth from the bottom to catch up to the top to become top colas. Yes lateral growth. After all said and done from the top of your net to the top of the colas should be around 1 foot or under

Here is a generic pic of scrogging

Ps. Before the flip when you scrog you want to lollipop all of the undergrowth off.

What's the point of the net if you just let it grow up through it? You want to train it laterally underneath the net. And the openings are too big with that net to begin with.

These guys have you covered on scrogging. I see some dead leaves around the base of the plant. You should clean that stuff up so you don't have decaying plant matter near your plants. Try to get any deficiencies corrected before flipping to flower.

Yeah I had a Calcium Magnesium problem .. so I brought my PH up to 6.4 to help absorb the cal meg through the roots. And I will be sure to clean it up and get a tighter net. Thanks everyone
