Closet Scrog Virgin

Hi from Sunny South Africa

While I have grown many outdoor plants, this is my first indoor grow.

Everything is running smoothly for my budget setup, then I heard about SCROG.
I dived straight in cause I can't wait for anything ( bad habit I have ). Anyway, check out my pics and let me know what the next step is. Do I let the top of the plant grow through and then bend it over. I am too scared to touch them as they are doing so well. Can't even bear the thought of cutting anything.

Your input will be appreciated.

^^ GOOD LOOKS VOID.. get that thing closed up son you gonna get a algae frenzy in there.. On the scrog side everything looks good, you wanna make sure it all stays at one height out of the cage. So for instance that top main cola thats poking up keep pulling it down to the cage height so the other side branches can catch up to the screen. I've found if you pull all fan leaves and such under the screen and only let like a couple inches of the colas above the screen and keep spreading them out or tie them down. Get like 75% of your screen filled before you flip her to 12/12.

Be Good!

Yap, cover your res. Cover your hydroton with tin foil or something. Send your plants out to opposite sides of your scrog, and pull that taller one under the screen and out. The idea is you let your tops grow through a few inches, then pull them back down and send them under the screen to another hole. Till you have most of them filled if its hydro, or close to all of them if its soil. Make sure you can check ur nutes and change your res without having to move that screen. And read some scrog threads. This one can teach you everything you need to know to get scrog'n like a pro: https://www.rollitup.org/grow-journals/344359-pineapple-express-g13-labs-seed.html
