Hello bro For this method of cultivation, there will be one to five cannabis plants for a culture chamber of about one square meter. In the end the production will be the same, whether we have grown one or five plants, the only variable will be the growth time needed to fill the available surface. To realize the Scrog, we will need to install a net or a grid (preferably bamboo of 6 / 8mm diameter) with meshes of 5 to 10 centimeters, about twenty centimeters above the pots. When the plants reach the grid, it will be necessary to wind the branches to not let them exceed in height: this will have the effect of favoring the ramifications, rather than the apical shoot. This process must continue until more or less 70% of the surface of the screen is occupied by the plants, according to the cultivated varieties, their vegetative vigor and their behavior during the flowering stage. We arrive at the moment of passing from the photoperiod of growth (18/6) to that of the flowering (12/12). During the first days of flowering, cannabis plants continue to grow, which will allow them to finish the colonization of the fence. During the transition to flowering, then during maturation, a maximum of flowers is at the same level under the bulb, for optimal quality, without aerated flowers of second quality. With regard to flowering, it takes place in exactly the same way as in any type of conventional crop, without special needs. May the force be with you 💪

I tried the second method and pushed higher branches under the net to navigate them to my desired spot, worked well. In combination with topping you can get lots of colas. I used 4 plants on 2,5x2,5 and got about 20 colas, all nice and evenly. It all depends on your will to top and push them and accept longer veg period.

@Gldnbuddha No you need to let the plants grow thru the netting tucking the branches under it as they grow creating a flat canopy , Then hopefully the buds will grow in an even manner giving you a lot of equal sized colas. After the flip to 12/12 you can the defoliate anything below the net thus eliminating your unwanted popcorn buds hope this has answered your question
