If you go back and read my first grow, I had my scrog screen a lot lower, around 6" from the top of the soil.
This lets you get those taller ones spread ALL the way to the outer edges of the cab, allowing tons more light in the middle.
My first grow ever was SCROG and it is a great training technique.

For this grow I was forced to put the screen at this height due to the teenagers overall shape, but more so because my electrical outlet s position the scrog just clears, when I get this grow harvested I need to do some major construction, lay the box back down, I want to change the light trap remount the fan, get some outlets up in the top yadee yadee, you get it

I think I will start micro too when my outdoor is done.
I just realy start to love it.
And since I live rural with solarpanels for my only powersupply I need something low watt for indoor.
maybe half the size you do Tim.
would need to keep light around 70-80watts less would be better. Dunno about the right hardware guess two leds like yours Tim or something like that

Edit
I will need some help constructing the light from you guys.

My two cree cobs pull 104 wattswatts, if you did half the size a single cree cxa or cxb will work well, if you're grow area is height restrict some vero would due well, a single cree cob would only pull 52 watts with the artic pc heat sink and fan that's for a cxa3070

That sounds great. Woukd definitly be within the pissibilities.

My plan was two plants in rectangle kind of shaped box...but if I use only one led one plant would be better plan....maybe cubic shaped then...

My tactic is to build the box last of all..
I built a big one in the past when I lived in the city and built the box first and that led me to lots of trouble with containers a cm or two too wide and this and that.
and I sweared for the next box I will start the box as soon as I know what exactly will be in the box not erlier:-)

flipped the lights to 12 12 last night, its really going to help with the temps , also the heat wave is over here in Oregon, all the indoor growers are breathing a sigh of relief, I didnt want the screen to get away from me, so there is some room left to guide tops under for the next 10 or 12 days, and then just let them grow up, I have space for a second scrog screen,
I am also going to remount the exhaust fan on saturday , going to unmount it and hang it to help with noiseIMG_8131.JPG

Looks awsome Tim.

Hanging a fan is a great Idea. But first time I did it I used chain to hang it on two big hooks attached to the ceiling of my Box. But vibration was nearly as bad as befor.
I used the inner tubes of a bycicle then, worked not bad.

Whats your plan?

2 days into 12 12 flower, did some training this morning, started using the green bendy stuff , the left plant I physically turned the pot about 3 inches and it helped with some of the main branches, thought I better do it now before its too late, so far so good, we will see how much screen fills , its not a goal to fill it, right now I feel good about how little effort its taking, thats the whole idea for me , low stress gardening ( low stress for me lol) ,
any ways here is a picture from this morning,
thanks to those who helped me with the ph water questions in the other threads
temps are nice at 73 degrees in the box,
still just the 2 cxa3070 cree cobs doing the job, IMG_8132.JPGIMG_8133.JPG

Great grow, I use a 3x3 tray on a raised false floor of cement block with a front and center drain into a large kitchen pot.

Nice looking
