It will work out well. Give it plenty of root space and train it so they arent fighting for light. There are guys on here that actually plant more than one plant in a pot

You think one root system could support two plants? My first grow was in a 10 gallon rubbermaid with two plants and it went fine. It would be a sight to see:)

So by yalls estimate and the amount of growth in 6 days when do you think they will be ready to flip? See yall in 7 days:)

well doesnt mj grow like a weed in some countries.... clusters of bushes very close to each other..as long as there is enough space to avoid rootboundness i think it works

I'm almost posative it will work, because it is still actually only one plant. Not 2 seperate root systems trying to compete for space, and as long as my one root system is strong enough then it should be able to support whatever. I'll grab a pic after 5 when my lights turn on. You guys will get the first taste of my grow.

Honestly I would wait atleast till you get back next week before you start thinking about switching. I say that because you don't know what they will do in the next 6 days. They may double inn size and when you get back you'll be like oh sweet I'm gonna switch them, or they may not, lol. Either way you don't look like you are close to running out of space so I'd leave em on auto pilot and let us bug your old lady for the week, ha! I will say I would show her how to do the training, and keep them trained under that screen every day to get you a nice full even canopy on your netting. Usually people switch scrogs when they have the screen about 70% full. I know you've seen roomies beauty he has going, and whodats. In the next 6 days you may reach that point if they stay trained.

Oh ya its gonna be at least till I get home. I know when to flip. My last scrog was planned perfectly. I was just wondering how long y'all think it will take. I have to think about it in terms of what the plant will be doing and when I'm going to be home. Like I want to be there when they start and stop stretching during flower. Ideally I would want to flip as soon as I get home next week so I can get em going in the right directions, let her train the second week of stretch, and the back for the final week to determine how far to let them grow above the screen. I won't sacrifice yield by switching too early though if it doesn't work out like that.

Sun moves
Your lights generally dont
Unless you have a light mover

I seen a feild of wild hemp. Still grows out there by my parents house. Plants 15 foot tall. But the closer you got to permanent shade or on the hill the smaller they got. In the flat part of the feild 15 footers
Up the hill plants 12 inches tall. And a lot of them were purple.

Sounds like a solid plan man, wasn't tryin to get ahead of ya. Sadly I get some of these grows mixed up some times, and I can't always remember how much experience some of the newer guys have.

So I said I'd show you what I've been talkin about so here it is. The first is the new seedling with double sprouts, the second is my older one that split off naturally.



and just cus I'm in a good mood heres one of my table.


I'll catch you guys later, tomorrow I may post the rest I took on my journal in my link if you'd like to see more!

The majority of whats in the tray everything on this side is all bubba kush, they have been stretching much more than I wanted, but only so much I can do. I've pinched the stems multiple times to try to slow down the upward growth. The clones I got from a friend, and then I made the mistakke of letting them veg for a week to try to build the roots. I'm just hopping I get some nice buds even if I have to lean them to the edges of my light. Won't be the first time.

Hmm i bet by the time you get back next week Mechanical you'll want to flip. Save the last bit of room in your scrog for the stretch. I bet your screen will be completely full by the end of the stretch. I like to comparison shot 6 days apart.

So I watered them Monday morning before I left and trained them all to where no shoot was sticking more than an inch above the screen. Well holy shit I looked at them today on my Dropcam which sits about 2" above the screen and I can't see anything but green. That means they have grown about 2" in 2 days. I'm sure I'll be able to flip when I get home. Dede will be there tomorrow to train them and hopefully post an update. Damn I love growing weed lol..

What's weird is the twins aren't identical. I wish both my seeds sprouted like your pre topped seedling. That's perfect! I'm sure you will get some good bud off of those Bubbas. They look so uniform:)

That sounds awesome man an inch a day will definitely fill that screen fast.

From what I've been reading the twins thing isn't as rare as I thought I guess, its just the first time I've encountered it. It seems that often times, one will grow more dominant than the other. Depending how evenly they grow I may only let the smaller one just get big enough to make it the first clone. We'll see how they grow, I just put all my seedlings into some solo cups yesterday. I love the "pre-topped" one, I agree it should be awesome, its already working on it second set of leaves. I usually have pretty good success with the single cola plants I run, 25-30g per plant. These bubbas will hopefully still give well, but I am a bit doubtful atm. The plant on the far left that looks bushier, and darker green is what I'm calling NY strawberry, and I'm loving the way its growing so far very good node spacing. I'm thinking I may get closer to 2oz off it, and that will help the total. Hopefully its good quality too this is the first time I've ran it. I did have to cut the 2 power skunks I had yesterday, they were boys. I didn't feel the need to try to save some 100% sativa pollen so they went in the trash.
