Now the fun begins hopefully!!! It’s to the point where it was difficult to keep weaving to try and keep an even canopy,I almost thought about taking the scrog off to replace it one more time...

Looks good. How long was your veg time and was it from cutting or seed? And how many plants ?

Nice I have 3 plants in a similar setup under a 1000wtMH and will flip to a hps. I germed my seeds 9/15 and planted 9/16 they sprouted 9/21. Had some issues with two so one will be 6 weeks Saturday and the other two will be 5 weeks Saturday. Not sure how much longer I should veg before flipping cause I know you use the stretch to fill in the rest of the scrog correct?

This pic is from yesterday right when lights came on. The one up front and back left are 5 weeks Saturday and the back right one is 6 weeks Saturday. Two in the back are blue cheese and front is chem dawg. And another blue cheese in the small jug. That’s gonna be an expierment and will move it to a small gorilla grow tent when I flip.

Not to hate but Is that wood resistant to any type of mold? I could never figure out if I would use wood or not.

The humidity isn’t high enough in my room to cause any mold issues but I imagine as long as you don’t saturate the wood during watering or foiler feeding you’d be fine even if it was. I opted for wood cause I wanted a strong screen and tight and easy to lace up through the eyelets.

Looks good yeah I took my scrog down when I moved my room. Plants all have about 10-11 tops each from topping once and doing some LST. Just not sure I wanna veg another month to fill a scrog at this point

thats my thoughts recently too. if you train your plants properly from seedling/clone and you fill your space properly with the right number of the right sized plants, scrogging isn't necessary.

but it also doesnt hurt to have the net there. just use it to pull the outside colas even further away from the plant an open up more light. also helps support if buds get heavy!

Problem I'm having from a scrog standpoint is the outside colas mainly on the gorilla glue aren't wanting to pull out much further and some of the tops on the inside are hella stretchy already and when you try and weave them they get in the way of other tops.I actually have like thirty or more tops per plant that get awesome lighting and quite a few more that aren't getting near enough and when I go to help the ones left behind out I always end up covering something else up lol Cant save em all I don't reckon like I said I'ma let them go now and only bend and crop them over if necessary and put this trellis net over them once buds start getting heavy!!!

I agree. Imo I think scrogging is better if you’re limited with height and only have one plant or something like that. Or do it with DWC setups cause soil is taking forever. Ditched my scrog this grow after moving my room. Gonna give the two weeks to get rid of any stress and then flip

They look pretty good man. I just flipped mine Friday! Put the scrog back in lol. I modified it and raised it up a bit and re trained them. I feel you on flipping sooner.. only been a few days and they’re hella stretchy already and no where to put them. I’m about to trim all the small tops that only have one or two nodes on them and make room though. I’ll grow in bigger pots next time too.
