Enter The Scrog/Scroggers United Post Page

Dropped 2 girls out of my SCROG this weekend,....

First was Island Sweet Skunk,.... 10 weeks and not ready 75% cloudy no amber, but she started poppin Nanners!:evil::wall: So she/it got greased before any more damage could be done in my room.

Second was White Widow (avatar) again 10 weeks. 100% cloudy and a scattering of amber:weed:

I'm SOOOOOO Loving SCROG!!!!!!!:bigjoint:


ISS 583g wet.

WW 650g wet.

Okay guys I read the first eight pages or so of this thread captivated, taking notes and damn near drooling. I am sure someone in all of these pages has answered my question but i dont have time to read every page. Anybody out there using 1000 watt ? if so what was your yield and how many plants etc? Ill be starting six AK 48's in a top drip/dwc set up under a thousand watt mh/hps soon as i finish my cabinet. Using Canna nutes if that helps. Going to Home Depot as we speak to buy materials for a screen!
 
I'm running 1000w total,... 600+400 in a 4x9' space, and if I pushed it I could do 8-10 plants in there, tho maintaining them would be tough given it's basically a closet with the door on the short end......

Your yield will depend on your specific methods.... For instance my last harvest (post above yours) will be about 11 oz dry off of 2 plants,...... that was about 1/3rd of the room,...... you do the f'n math ;)
 
Noob question...

Any drawbacks to a 2.5 month veg of 1 plant under a 3' x 3' SCROG area?

Would be nice to match veg time and flower time in a two tent system.

Thanks

I got a question for ya, which is better for yeild pound for pound a sog or scrog? i dont know if this question has been brought up befor? I'm kind of torn between the two. for example, how long would it take to train a plant for a scrog V.S. a sog? it seems that a scrog is more work and time! this is just a question so please dont bite my head off.

Sog is better. No veg and your canopy is supplied by a lot more stalks and roots. Scrog is better for medical growers who want to make the most of their plant limits or illegal growers who don't want to get caught with a 100 plants in a 5x5 area. And that is a little bit of a bitch if you're doing high output sog is all the clones. 4 plants per square foot is a lot of freakin clones that all need to be the the same height and health when they go under the hps's in order to do it right.

hay thanks ted, let me make sure i understand.so pound fo pound sog is better due to space V.S. scrog? sog = no veg just one cola plants. scrog is one plant with alot of tops. in other words, 9 big plants in a 4x4 tent V.S. 60 little plants in the same area? am i bout wright?

would be a lot of work. I would also like to set up multiple scrog tents, a month apart, harvest one a month. your way, my way, doesn't matter, both of us will be training every day, at least one of the grows, in order to accomplish what we want.

I would argue that they overall yield per year is about the same. Not sure which is more work though. Cloning all those plants would be a PIA. Plus, running multiple strains in A SOG I think would be a little more tricky due to different stretch and ultimate canopy height differences. Since all my efforts went into creating an awesome flower room..and no matter what method you use, your flowering room is occupied for two months.. I take clones at the flip and veg them in a tent. That way when, right after harvest, I put the next round in there that have effectively been vegged for 6 weeks.

Six harvests a year, 4-5 oz per plant, 12 plants per run = around 18 pounds a year.

hey fly long time, yeah its all about working smarter not harder lol, i was wondering if i should run a sog V.S. scrog not sure if i was to wait with the training and all? if i do the sog in 6 inch square pots in a 4x4 table i could get a lot in that bugger. scrog same table maybe 9 plants at the most but the tops? i could get a lot of tops. what to do ? oh i just rewired the whole house and a extra breaker just for the tents:)
 
What appeals to me about the SCROG is that if I understand it correctly; one can train one plant to produce the fruit of many, which would reduce the legal risks.

I would say the biggest draw back is time. You can cut it in half if you get a better rotation going. If your just looking to grow a mosnter then that sounds good! Also I dont think it would take you 2.5 months to fill the 3x3 area depending on the stain. The thing I like best about ScroG is the fact that its really just has to do with what you like to grow and how you want to get to the goal you set for yourself. So many different things you can do and they all work well!!!!

My question is, which style would give the most ? even if we live in a state that would allow you to grow 65 plants which style would produce the most? for example, how many plants in a sog would equal the same amount of weight as 9 plants in a scrog

i dont think anyone can really answer that question, cuz it really depends on a lot of things. In all honesty i dont think one produces more than the other, but thats just my opinion.

Yea i mean SOG might produce more in the space that you have, but not in someone else's. Like Im workin with SCROG right now because i really dont have the space to make any weight with SOG.
