Starting to learn a mistake I might have started out with this SCROG and that’s being impatient. I should have been letting the new growth get 2 inches higher before tucking again. Just a mental note for my next SCROG.
Anyhow here we are 5 days since the flip and still no sign of preflower and tucking every couple days. She seems to be loving the 4gpg of MC and additives with just the slightest tip burn. You really have to go looking for it. She drinks on average an inch from the reservoir daily.
I managed to stretch her out a little more under the screen. I don’t expect to completely fill it with just one, mostly indica, plant but it has been fun trying. Looks like I have 75% covered so far and I would be happy with that. I think I am at the point where I should let her start stretching upwards. I’ve never done this before so any advice would be welcome. Do we have any SCROGing experts around here?
In reading recently it seems SCROGing a mother plant is rarely done or suggested. Not sure why, but I guess we shall find out. Anyhow here she is today at lights on. I did tuck one or two really long shoots but for the most part it’s untouched today. Look under her skirts for an added surprise.
Awesome. I’m doing a Super Skunk in the exact same style. Almost identical.
Can’t wait to see how yours turns out. I’m still 2-3 weeks away from flipping to flower as I want to fill my 120cm x 120cm canopy as much as I can. I’m about to start a journal on it so if you’re interested, check it out when it’s up. Good luck!
@HemiSync, no worries bro. When I get around to it, I will start a diary for them and get it up to speed. I’m currently at Day 11 of flower, so I have some uploading to get done.
Im totally new to growing indoors or at all, the whole raise the plant to help push it the scrog screen...genious. Im def gonna follow use for helpful tips like that. Keep up the good work. They look great!
@Greenthumb4488,
Thanks for the kind words. I actually raised the pot to add more room under the net to be able to get under her and clean up all the foliage under the screen. Now the buds are getting so close to my lights I might have to lower her back down again. Not a task I wish to do.
@Tophat,
Thanks, I’m hoping it just produces bud, I will work on filling the tent next time. 😂 This is just my training wheels run. Next time I’ll do it right with a new plant, not an old mother.
@simps,
Thanks for the kind words. I agree they are from the soil. I use mushroom compost in my mix, but they don’t normally show mushrooms. The mix must be on track if it’s able to grow mushrooms.
