Now set up my first scrog, ive got a sweet adjustable solid metal scrog shelf and the plants have been in their big pots for a week now.

Should i top them before they reach the screen??

Yes. its common to top around the 3rd node or 5th node. it allows for a more even canopy for your scrog.
and for a scrog you need a even canopy.
check out this tutorial. its from a poster on here but a condensed version.

thats the whole point in the adjustable table you top and top to get multiple cola's as you pull the tops thru the screen. so let the screen down to the tops of the plant then when you cut tops they will double and then you pull them thru the screen so all you have is tops coming thru the screen.. hints scrog..

Nice one guys. I only ask because ive read a couple of scrog journels where they dont top the plants, so wanted to clear it up a bit.

If they dont top then i presume they LST it quite a bit..
