Hi everyone,

I'm about to run a Hydro session ( Hydropot Platinium 100 )

I've bought these following femenized seeds

Genetics:

6 x Larry OG (Cali Connection )
6 x Skywalker Kush ( Reserva Privada )
5 x Triple Cheese
5 x Cookies Kush

4 x Cheese Autoflo
3 x Sweet Coffee Rider Autoflo

Could you tell me if you know which ones suit SOG or SCROG the best ?

Which ones are sensitive to super cropping ?

Thanks

The skywalker from rp loves supercropping and topping. I Haven't flowered yet so idk about sog or scrog.

I've grown skywalker from rp for three years excellent strain u won't be disappointed super dense buds small buds can weigh two or grams just the lil ones bad thing to it is its very Viney plant never tried sog or scrog but did excellent on hydro or soil too I can tell u at least two ounces per plant of well over 20 percent thc

Iv seen Larry OG done locally couple different ways, seems to like to bud nodes real close, needs a loose scrog or other 'bonzia" type tying and training.

My OG's need lots of help, the girl like scout too, or it will basically tie itself in a knot and not yield squat per wat

I have the same Damn issue with my sfv. I have to lst the fuck out of it or it will tuck branches between itself and not take up shit for space. If og was to grow in the wild I believe that tucking branches in is the only way the plant would stay standing by the end. This is why the plant does it IMO.

To the op. Noobs shouldn't grow gsc or OG or any touchy finicky strains. If you want top shelf medicine without headaches go find someone with a badass blue dream or green crack that is a breeze to grow. Save yourself some headaches. If your worried about height, get a nice bubba.

The san fernando cut is one of my least favorite for this exact reason, it popcorns and leaves you mostly marble sized buds with a few decent cola's when done quick in a hydro set up, might do better in a greenhouse...had a platnum and "true" cross i threw out because of the same nug structure...got a new GSC and dead head cuts vegging now

thansk for all your comments and informations.

So basically, I can go with a supercropping / topping for the Skywalker OG but I might keep it one bud for the Larry and CookiesKush...


I didnt really get the meaning of what you guys were trying to explain me about the nugs structure and the way I should tie my Larry OG or SFV.

Buds are too heavy ? Is that the problem ?

I have grown in soild few times but this is my first time doing hydro and aero. I'm not a total noob and I smoke OG since 5 years now, can't grow something else... even if these og strains are harder to grow, this is what I need ! ;-)

It will tend to branch out into lots of lower small buds, which can negatively affect yield. I either top, or tie main colas down to trick the plant into thinking its topped.

Using a scrog type screen or training the branches out and into the light by otherthe means you can produce more from what would have been underdevoloped buds, which gets you more weight per wat in the long run. I find GDP, hashplant, other dominant indicas benifit from being trained to use the horizontal space available as well as verticle.

Thanks for your reply Norcalmopar

I've actually made a small mistake when I said that I was going to run a SCROG or a SOG...

I was just talking about Supercropping / Topping and One Bud growing technic.

Since you just told me that the Larry OG tend to branch out, then why not turning them into beautiful one buds ? I just have to cut these branches and it will do good.

So Skywalker OG Kush --> better to top it
Larry OG ---> better go one bud

Correct ?

I would not go for one bud /plant on an og if thats what you mean, but, to each thier own... with an OG more than most, I usually defoleate according to light and space, and try and get a few main cola's per plant by either topping, or by pinning back a main branch.

yea I was thinking about growing 24 one bud in my hydro system ( 6 larry, 5 cookies kush, 5 triple cheese and 4 skywalker Kush )

But your meaning is that OG's dont suit one bud growing >< ?

Anything is possible, but true OG's are scraggly, lopsided, and STANK somthin good...try it out, worst case is a high quaility with low yield run. You'll see what it wants to do long before you flip it from veg.

Trying to keep it tame without holding it back is tricky, took me a couple runs with my new cut to get it back over a lbs/light because its needs are so differnt from my jack, which pulls that easily

Pinning back main branch definitely way to go with og.

platnum, "true", and a GSC cross all of which got tossed

Waitn on taho, deadhead, and another GSC

I like toying with scragglers, good trainwreck, or white widow

For the one nug, as mentioned, GC, blue dream, jack here, or more sativa stuctured plant will give you the workable "lolipop" it soundsthe like your looking for.

Right tool for the job kinda thing. IMO

Thank you very much for all these previous informatiions.

So best way for me to run my OG's and Cookies Kush is supercropping / pinning, right ?

I want to maximise the lbs/ watt ratio, so if you guys tell me that with one buds Ill have good quality but low yield then I'm not going to grow them one bud.

So OG's suit perfectly to the candle stick shape if I got it right...

" You'll see what it wants to do long before you flip it from veg. " ---> Could you give me some more details ? You mean if I grow them one bud, even before to flip them from veg they will already have that scraggly and lopsided outlook ?
