Thanks guys. Lemon I run all perlite hempy buckets so root mass is not too much of a problem. Always looking to improve some though. Girls are looking great, Blue Hash is scaring me with her stretch a bit. Speaking of which...

Stupid captcha f'ed up my update post. Here is the new condensed version.
Blue Hash is a beast. She is threatening to overgrow her screen. She has a real nice skunky-sweet smell, almost similar to my old Blueberry. With her nice steady growth she is ending up with a healthy number of tops filling in her screen.
Afghan Kush Special is a shrubbery. I am not holding out much hope for her to stretch too much. I am probably going to let her start going vertical from here, in hopes that her tight node spacing will fill her tops in nice. I trimmed out a lot of her inner branching and thinned her out nice.
Cheese is already smelling strong. She has some nice branching, although her one side is outpacing the other. I've tried some LST and slight cropping to try and even things out a bit. She should have a nice canopy by the looks of her.
When running a scrog it is important to cut out any branches that won't reach the screen level. I like to start around day 7 and usually take alot off. You can start light here and gradually work up to day 17 or so, taking everything under the screen level out. Here is a pic to give you an idea.
Blue Hash before and after.

Thanks ADG. It does depend on strain, and going with new strains is always a bit of a crapshoot, but I usually shoot for around day 7-9 before I quit training horizontal. I like to let them go vertical about 4-8 inches above the screen level. Thanks for stopping back in.
I never have a problem with good suggestions mate. Feel free to post away with any comments, questions or criticisms too, I am definitely not one of those guys who think my way is the best and only way. I am always looking for ways to improve, which is all any of us can hope for.
This Black Russian I am smoking from my last grow is right up your alley LK. Really nice sour lemon funk, and straight head wrecking buzz, I am loving it.

A 2 gallon hempy bucket can grow a pretty big plant, I've seen 5-6 foot hempys, from 2 gallons, and with training that same plant obviously can be 3 feet in height, but a root bound hempy is not going to be likely i'd say for a pretty big plant, a 2 gal bucket is probably equivalent to a 6-7 gallon soil bucket.
Alot of growers do wonders with just 2L hempys from soda bottles, very very respectable harvests and grow decent plants. hope that helps, but hempy's can grow monsters, you mentioned hempy or coco, just do hempy coco's
