Day 21 - Set up an automatic watering/feeding system so that plants can be easily watered with SCROG net in place. This will also water/feed plants while traveling or away for longer durations. The watering system can be found on Amazon - STOH Micro Automatic Drip Irrigation Kit/Self Watering System with 30-Day Timer. Link follows:

Day 22 – Fed with Nectar for the Gods nutrients, Recharge (soil microbes), and SuperThrive. Aerated the mix with aquarium air pump (two stones) for approximately 15 minutes prior to feed.
Day 23–Looking healthy enough to begin some defoliation, leaf tucking, and bending of the main stem under the SCROG net. Defoliation to remove some of the fan leaves to allow for some air movement/circulation as plant had such tight internodal spacing. Leaf tucking to assist with side flower exposure. Bending of the main stem under the SCROG net to assist in creating an even canopy.
Day 26 - Fed with the same Nectar of the Gods based regimen but increased the Herculean Harvest. Added Bloom Khaos and a 1/2 teaspoon Recharge. Continued with some leaf tucking to expose flower sites. She seems a bit more sensitive to the nutrients and has developed slight tip burn. Will only give water and Recharge for the next week or two. - Zannabis7
@biggreens420 is right, you did a great job this week. Have you seen RQS Instagram page? They’ve published one of these photos.... and that means you have really nice plants!!!
@TOTEM, Really? One of the photo's from my grow or my garden? Could you provide a link please? BTW - thank you for the kind words on my grow this week. Much appreciated.
Hell and welcome my friend can u not pin the side to the wall to stretch the net out a bit more are u topping any or just letting them grow natural iv grown this strain in scrogg also only have last few week on here it was my first grow it's a beast plant
@biggreens420, I will not be topping the plants. Just bending under the SCROG net. It will be interesting to see how it goes. First SCROG with autoflowers.
@biggreens420, Thanks for the comment and yes, I suppose I could pin the side of net to the wall, I will certainly give this consideration. I will check out your grow and would continue to welcome any suggestions you might provide throughout the grow. Please check out my other grow diaries as I have 6 different strains running. - Zannabis7
@Jaindoh, Yes, this is just a metered pump. You can program it to water hourly, daily, every two days, three days, etc. I do use plastic saucers under my planters for runoff. Anyway, you can read more about it at Amazon. Here is the link:

@Zannabis7, yeah even just the name of the kit or model number or whatever... even just the thing you have clamped to the bucket -- is that just a metered pump? or a thing that turns a separate pump on and off?
I'd love to get 36-40 gallons of coco coir's daily watering down to nearly or fully automatic. I thought it would cost quite a bit more and involve some type of res that would have a chance of like pumping its entire contents out over my floor or something if something breaks... this looks workable however. i guess a plastic tray for the bottom of my tents would be in order.
@Bloodmilkandsky, Thanks for the kind words and for looking in. I appreciate it. The closet is slowly emptying as I have harvested two now. Bet wishes...
@MissSolasolita, Thanks for looking in and I hope your girls become nice strong women in the end. I appreciate you continuing to look in and thanks for the best wishes.
@Kali_DC, Thanks for the kind words. It has taken me quite awhile to perfect the closet grow, but it seems I have it dialed in fairly well now (knock on wood 😊). Best wishes on your grow. If you ever need any advise, don't hesitate to ask.
