The girls have been doing great and we've increase their base nutrients to 3 ml per liter. Most are around a foot tall and we've topped them all on the last day of the week and defoliated the lower sections of leaves and small sucker branches that will be covered later as it will all be under the net. The girls look good and further defoliation will be held off until they are a little taller, we are guessing at 18-20 inches above the pot the net will be set. As they heal this coming week we will use some light LST to bend down the main shoot and any of the taller side shoots to begin training the canopy to be more even and flat. The 7 gallon fabric pots are being watered with roughly a gallon each every 2-3 days. We feed every watering so I've kept the base nutes (Micro, Gro and Bloom) behind by 1 week on the schedule instead of half doses. We saw signs of magnesium and potassium deficiency in some leaves. We will keep an eye to see if it persists after defoliating the affected signal leaves. Update: 6/24- Girls look great! 3 ml per L each feed twice a week seems to be doing it

So the real point of the Scrog net is simply to get as many nodes on a single branch to become equal to the end node on that branch. You’re well on your way! At some point during the stretch phase of flower you have to let those nodes grow vertical for a bit to get a net of “big colas”. You seem to be on your way my friend. Looks good for one of your 1st scrogs.

Thank you bro for all of the info you've provided it's helped alot. VPD and plant diseases / fungus are the two areas my research had lacked and I'm currently reading up on VPD and LVPD and using an online calculator. I suspected my night time humidity was my biggest problem but man, worse than i thought. Still waiting on the dehumidifier but in the meantime going to be thinning them a bit for sure. When it arrives I'll probably set it to run when lights are off and turn off when they come on until end of flower. Gonna shoot for around 68 degrees at night with around 40% RH at night with around 80-85 degrees during day and 55 to 60% RH like you've got going. There's only natural levels of CO2 in the basement so I don't want to push it too high. Note: Tried lowering AC, night temp went to 72 but the humidity shot to 81. It's probably been doing most the work definitely thinning a bit today and hoping that big dehumidifier comes soon 🙏

@ShadowGrows, great update. Your space looks great, just thin it out and watch your night time temps. Low temps+high humidity=powdery mildew. It’s like a math problem. If you take away one of those variables you’ll never have a mildew problem. So just keep your night temps above 72 degrees and you’re golden. I love your high temp high humidity. It’s all about that strong VPD!!! 💪💪💪 That’s how I try to run 80-85 degrees and 60-65% humidity til last 10 days of flush and then reduce humidity. Wait til you see the results…the proof is in the pudding

Thanks bro! Definitely came out a bit better than the last. I tried to focus on tucking the taller parts of the branch but I think next time I may need to flip to flower a tad sooner, or 2 less plants for the space maybe. Went from worried I wouldn't fill the net to...oh crap i'm out of net holes 😂 I was mainly worried about Blue Dream even gave her extra net space lol, Sativa dominant so I was hoping to keep her as close to the others as possible. 😁

My dude things are really looking good! Do you have a favorite? P.S. lowering temps at night will automatically trigger higher humidity no matter what you do. If you got your dehumidifier, this is when it will work overtime lol
