glad i read this, very very nice scrog
planning a micro scrog yourself? if you plan to do it in a mini fridge (or small scale cab) make sure you have good ventilation! If I could pass one piece of advice on a micro scrog, or any grow really, it's VENTILATION! Right now i have a 6" open intake hole toward the bottom of the fridge (where the shelf is), and I have a 4" hole at the top with a computer fan (100 cfm) running alllll day and all night. it gets pretty warm in my box, and i wouldn't even try this in summer (unless i got some AC) - they would just cook. but in winter the room temps are around 65-70F, and the temp in the box is around 80~85ish. not too bad.

TWISTD1 - those buds look awesome. i know mine wont be that big, but i'm hoping for many many many medium size buds. adding them all up is what will determine my yield.

i'll keep ya posted-

It's day 46. Today the flush starts. I emptied the res and filled it with PH'd water only. If everything goes well, I plan to harvest two weeks from today. I wanted to give the plant a 14 day flush because its been on a heavy feeding schedule - the leaves are a very dark green - which is great for growth - but not for smoking. So i think 14 days will be a good amount of time to ensure that the nutes get flushed out of the plant before harvest. I'm really looking for the highest quality smoke I can possibly get.

here are some pics (in regular lighting)! Day 46 flower.

thanks mastakush. i really have no idea what yield will be, and am not sure what to expect really as this will be my first harvest. from looking at the screen right now, my guess is as good as yours.

SmokeyMcSmokester - yea scrog is really a great way to grow, you won't be disappointed. I found it was a lot easier than attempting LST training. in the first couple weeks from seed i attempted LST and it was really a lot of work. I may not have been doing it correctly but I found the plant would always break through being tied down. I always had to keep fixing it. I knew it would be way too much work for me once the plant got big. scrog is great because the screen does all the work for you, it lets your plant grow huge (with enough veg time), while keeping it compact. big plants=big yield.

Just be sure to give it enough veg time, you really want to fill the screen about 70% before kicking it into 12/12.

again, thanks for the kind words everybody.

hey guys,
not too much going on here, very low maintenance at this point. today is 7 weeks of flowering! i can't believe it, i'm in the home stretch (of growing). I'm letting it go another week and a half, chopping just a few days shy of 9 weeks. I have a bit of a time constraint because I will be out of town the week of new years so I want to make sure these are all dried and curing in a jar when I leave. I've got about 10 days after the chop to dry, and then they'll be in a jar curing for a week or two before the smoke report.

day 54 flower
so ive noticed a bit of yellowing/browning of the leaves. I've read this is normal right about this time. res has been only water -no nutes- for about a week now. how's it looking? I'm shooting to harvest next week. I plan to keep it in the dark for 48 hours before harvest as well.

here are the pics:

the pics might be misleading on the trichs, most are actually still milky. i plan to let them go another week. at first i was going to harvest early for a more "head high", but have since decided I should let it go all the way, to get the most out of the strain. the strain/pheno will decide what type of high i get.
