thanks 2stoned. and your right in time, you havent missed much, just the veg and training. now is when things really start taking off. i just checked em. im seeing noticable growth in every cola every day. the tops may end up taller than i was expecting. buts thats cool cause that just means taller colas lol. ScrOG is a hell of a challenge. buts iit is sooooo much fucking fun growing this way. growing the normal way is boring compared to the world of scrog.

Yeah i could imagine, I reckon it would be fun trying to manipulate the plants into growing the way you need them to, cant wait to get started, You might gimme a few tips when i start?That would be really helpfull, I'm gonna be using 3 fem mazar, i'm gonna top all of em and veg them until the screen is pretty bushy, then flower those beutiful girlies, i have it all set out in my head, lets hope everything goes according to plan lol

Vurrry nice, how much? BTW do you ever surf stoned? I like to as a personal challenge, but for some reason I can't swim as well when I'm baked.

Wow, billybob.

To say the least, this is looking incredible. I really can't believe how well you predicted the stretch on these plants. Looking back at the earlier pic really hammers that point down. You handled your genetics like a psychic. The buds are looking great, man. I can't wat until the bud porn starts really flowing.

I don't know why...but this grow just gave me an idea...Everyone knows about those that have grown with lights in the middle of the room in the reflectors that allow light to go in every direction, and then they grow all around the bulb, instead of directly below...well...what if you changed your bulbs to those type of reflectors, hung them at appropriate distance to the screen...and then built shelves around the walls high enough the buds below would never touch, and put some more plants around to make even better use of the light...It would be a SCROG / Colliseum type thing...

Not that your grow isn't badass enough already...just had the thought, and you seem to be someone looking to maximize your space.

you could. but in a scrog u want to keep your lights really close to the canopy. i dont think there would be enough light distribution over the plants on the shelves unless i jacked the lights way up. i see what ur sayin tho. but i dont feel like taking care of soil plants too. my hydroponics system has 12 pots on it right now. and thats all i can fit on the floor in my space. Also, HID bulbs are way more effective hung horizontal under a reflector. it loses alot of energy being used vertical.

man i love these plants. they are inhaling the nutes. last grow i had so many problems with nute burns and deficencies and what now. i have them at 1600ppm with 0 nute burn and 0 deficiencys! ive only had one problem so far and that was in the beginning with some ph flux. i think they have past the stretching/ supporting phase for the buds they are about to soon produce. WOOHOO! Thanks FDD for stoppin by. Oh yeah anyone got any good ideas on how to lower humidity without buying a damn 200 dollar dehumidifier?

What you are describing is a good ol' vertical SOG. I have seen grows like this on other sites, and the yields are ridiculous. People are pulling 1.5g+ per watt with these. The only problem is, these systems eat clones like nobody's business. You need to have an army of mothers.
