What is your opinion on doing a SCROG on autos? Should I do it???

CRiSPrGrowanswered grow question 5 years ago
nah i had mediocre results with 90° bends, so it really depends on how extreme you want your scrog to be . I would really avoid SCROG, but LST is like, absolutely necessary for those yields, so i would "do the usual" more than 90* bend and would rather have pickets for plant trainors. Hope this helps ! 🚀

Hi there mate I am by no means an expert with autos having only grown a few but I really don't think
that you would realistically get an auto to fill a scrog screen in time to make it worthwile.
However I'm happy to be proven wrong on this.
A SOG with multiple autos would be a more viable plan of attack me thinks 😁
Hope this helps 👍

I personally don't like scrog because you can't move your plants without damaging them but it is a good option if you are limited on height. My fastbuds have taken pretty good to topping and training so I would train them the same way you would a photo plant. Good luck with the rest of your grow!

Northern Lights Auto, quite short and bushy, fan leaves shielding light - should I defoliate?First time grower with a quite short Northern Lights Auto in week 6. The fan leaves seem to shield a lot of light from the inner leaves, also touching ground. Should I trim the fan leaves? Or should I keep them, since it already seems stressed enough for it's short life…

So many leaves! Should I defoliate even more?I defoliated just before and even during the first week of flowering, but she keeps growing so many leaves even during the second week of flowering.
Should I defoliate right now or wait a couple of weeks? I worry I could halt the flowering or cause even more useless stress...

Remove leaves from auto?Should I remove fan leaves from my auto flower? I wonder since it is so crowded, I worry a bit that the leaves are pressing against the buds. But maybe that isn't a problem? I've read that removing leaves is unnecessary and stressful for the plant.

Defoliation late in flower on Auto'sI like to defoilate, If I were to pick majority of the fan leaves off of these plants being Auto's, will they react or stress too much? I like to defoil near the end of flower to really push all the focus to the budsites. Happy Growing!3 months ago

What should I do after a pre-harvest defoliation? Dark period or harvest next day or 2?Pre harvest defoliation. Should I put my Zkittlez Two in a 48 hour dark period after I do the pre harvest defoliation? I'll be wet trimming this one, so I figure it's easier to start a little early and then use the 48 hours to recover before harvest. Any suggestions? Yay or nay?
