LST or scrog?

As a first time grower, would you recommend traditional LST or a trellis net? I'm growing 3 plants in a 2x4 tent if that helps? Just wondering what the easiest and least prone to me screwing it up. Thanks in advance.

For autos, and being a first grow.. just regular LST in my opinion. Many of which have been outlined already by others. I do not like trellis nets cuz I like to see every bit of the plant and be able to move and inspect. You’re locked in with a scrog. It’s hard enough spotting WPM or pests without one, I can’t imagine with one.

Last and the trellis is pretty close to that same thing. The only real difference is what you're trying to attach too. It pretty hard to screw up the plant with lst. My first grow I wished I let it grow naturally. That way I could have first hand comparison to what the plant wants to do vs what I want it to do. Then I can see each grow if what I'm doing is actually increasing yeild or not.

You could use them both if you wanted to. LST and SCROG combined together. Given its your first time I would probably just stick with LST if it was me, its a bit easier to get down with and your plants are not trapped in the SCROG net if you need to remove them for anything like watering or pest management. I will be trying out my very first SCROG net on my current photoperiod grow. I plan on using some LST and HST techniques on them and creating an even filled canopy. Best Of Luck and Happy Growing!

I would recommend LST first. Scrog is fun but can be a pain. You can't take plants out to look at them in scrog.

Normalmente son técnicas complementarias, pero si es tu primera vez yo evitaría la malla de scrog por el simple hecho de que una vez instalada no puedes mover las plantas o sacarlas de la carpa, por lo que se vuelve un poco más engorroso trabajar con las plantas en una pocision fija. Sin embargo todo es cosa de experimentar. Suerte
