    pc/ultimate scrog grow yield!

    Yup that looks about the right place for 4 main colas! Let it grow a touch taller so you can see better also makes the cut easier :) I have the screen in from day 1 and leave enough space to get my hands under for maintenance, but yeah, looks good so far! Where does your water drain to? looks...

    pc/ultimate scrog grow yield!

    I'll have a flick through that when I get a chance! when I have a proper space to grow in I'll consider the CO2 business and just do one hardcore massive grow for posterity :) Deeper is better because of how MJ root systems grow, but in such a small area it wont make much difference... If...

    pc/ultimate scrog grow yield!

    No you don't have to wait until the plant gets to it's 5-6th node you can do it as soon as it gets to the 2nd true node maybe a little taller so you can see what your doing FIM is good but I don't do it (not for any particular reason just topping works every time for me : ) Fimming was...

    pc/ultimate scrog grow yield!

    Looks like a nice little box. And for small spaces I would say only use ScrOG, keeps the plant low and increases productivity by a fair bit, you don't get monster buds but that's not the point of ScrOG you get lots of tasty little nugs instead XD

    pc/ultimate scrog grow yield!

    Yeah you get 4 main colas and you do the same tucking under etc with all of the side shoots off of those main colas, so you have a LOT of bud sites and an even flat'ish screen of... well... green lol. I can pretty much guarantee you'll have problems IF you overfill your screen. An overfilled...

    pc/ultimate scrog grow yield!

    Yeah no worries! I'm not on here as much as I used to be 'cause I've just been mega busy at work buuuuut: What I do with the training is let it grow through the screen until its long enough to reach the next square, which is usually an inch or so. Pull it under the screen and move it along so...

    pc/ultimate scrog grow yield!

    Looks about right for 9 days, I'm not a PC grower but I do grow micro and only grow ScrOG lol I love it, you want to fill the screen ideally about 50-60% but on your first try the better bet is to underfill the screen and dial your switchover in a few grows, took me 3 ScrOG's to unlock my timing...

    Would this freak you out,,

    I suppose :) but say that or some people take it as a given and wonder why they hermed XD Stay Frosty!

    Would this freak you out,,

    Hermies aren't always genetic... you can still hermie a plant after doing what you just wrote, it just takes a lot of stress. And DelQ that is most definitely a herm, and you said there were flowers, from a plant with pistils, that's female pistils with male flowers... put 2 and 2 together and...

    Air Pots Vs. Regular Pots

    Smart pots and air pots, almost the same thing, they both have their merits :) smart pots are easier to water, less messy, I find water pours out of the holes in the sides quite ridiculously sometimes from air pots, but air pots are easier to take the plant out, transplant etc (just undo the...

    Ztelthys 100W HPS TV Cabinet Conversion (Pimped Out !!!)

    Just stick a nice 120mm fan right where the PSU would go in a PC exhausting out and it'll keep it cool enough, they do warm up a lot without adequate airflow! Did you have a Monday update this Monday Ztelthy? Times just merging all together in my head XD

    Best advanced nutrients..

    Maybe not the 'equivalent' powder to liquid but powder is cheaper... I only have a small res though: I worked it out that 130g of powder cost £18 or something and lasts 4 grows and 1l of the liquid lasts 2 grows but costs like £25.. you do the maths, this shit is expensive over here.

    Multi Strain 250w HPS Parabolic mini ScrOG

    Thanks Jason, though I have them all on raised cushioned platforms, fixed it by removing 1 pump (had 2, 1 for each bucket) but 1 is working magic! I'll post pics soon I'm sure, just started a new job and have been mega busy. The Sweet Deep Grapefruit in the garden had to be deconstructed into...

    Best advanced nutrients..

    stop at 50% damn... I get away fine with just water for a few weeks then 50% then 100% after that I can raise it to 150% and in extreme cases during flowering my plants have taken 300% strength with no burning or anything, it's all just strain related, some are nutrient whores and some like it...

    Best advanced nutrients..

    I'm not particularly familiar with those, but all these boosters aren't the kind of thing you NEED, you can produce just as much/good bud with the right techniques and feeding schedules etc... It's just good to have them if you got a bit of money to buy them.

    Best advanced nutrients..

    I try to have some form of flowering supplement for each few weeks of flowering, say something for week 1-3, then big bud for 4-6 then Overdrive for the rest. That's pretty much all you need. A lot of the AN extra supplements are just stupid and unnecessary, oh and expensive... And if you get...

    Ztelthys 100W HPS TV Cabinet Conversion (Pimped Out !!!)

    Stains aren't too important so long as they're all disinfected for the next grow :/ I just read the siphon pump bit today... Changed my res yesterday and thought damn, you know what I need... a siphon pump lol so they must think alike XD haha

    She's Flowering but temperature is over 90°F in the UK and it's the same in my shed!

    Just a tad :) I wouldn't like to be running that hot for more than a few days... even though I have been for about a week now lol... If you were doing a C02 setup for a shed, you'll need more than the old yeast in sugar water trick, more like cannisters, C02 Fire extinguishers are (I think)...
