Im gonna do it....

Timing is the ticket with scrogs. So many wait to long to flip and get overgrown big-time.

Clones work best in scrogs because ya already have a good idea of what size and growth speed your gonna get. With seed it's a little different.

With my floater screens I don't have to veg into the screen. I can veg normally and when time comes to flower I can throw one on. Train it under for 10-14 days and turn it loose. No tricky timing involved.

As ya know a plant flipped to flower stretches and that happens in a very short period of time. From day 10 it will start and by day 28 or so it will stop.... usually unless it's a behemoth sativa haze girl..lol. So placing a screen on top and training them under for the first 10-12 days sets them up pretty good to finish.

If you want a carpet of buds train them under for 14-20days and then release them. For a deeper canopy stick around ten days.

No doubt once you master this method you'll be hooked. I learned to grow with screens from the beginning and well, that kinda has stick to me today..lol.

If ya need any help I'll be glad to do so. With your experience ya should fly right through it.

I am definitely looking for more of a carpet than a deep canopy. I would like to only run 1 screen and not need a 2nd 1. But I will probably make my frame so I can add a 2nd net if needed for support. Crossing my fingers it won't be needed.

Humbolt chicken n waffles, doughnuts, and blueberry pancakes are all calling for me to try growing them.

Well at the tender age of 45 I don't know if I'd say I'm a young bull... and after my divorce last year I don't see myself doing that again, but yeah, I have a problem. I want to try them all... but if I could find 2 or 3 I really liked, I'd just grow them and then grow my autos for variety. I will no doubt be posting progress pics and will do a grow journal so it would be easy for you to help me out with a little knowledge, experience and guidance, and it would be greatly appreciated. When all of my gear arrives and I am all set up, I will let you know when I start my grow journal. I get excited for every 1 of my grows, but this grow and setup has me on pins and needles with excitement.

That's because ya know...Scrogs are super efficient grows. Excitement is good. Keeps ya on task.

I have my medical card, but my biggest problem with bud from the dispensary is that they have what you like for about 6-9 months, and then you never see it again. It is on to the next big strain that sells. I really enjoyed the taste and effects of Cresco sugar plum sunset buds, even if they were a little dry... but I haven't seen that stuff for well over a year.

All of these are under individual floater screens. Some are flat and others have some depth. This is all stages of flower.

I have no doubt you'll kill it when the time comes.

Dispensary weed is okay but we grow better weed at home...hands down. I share weed with friends and they are blown away at how much better homegrown is.

Best part is if I like it I can grow the hell out of it. Like my Cap Junky. It'll never die in my garden.

It's the same reason I am starting to reload for my hunting rifles. Every time I find a load my gun shoots well, they discontinue it and I have to find something else. So I'm like, he'll no... I will just make my own.

IS that your grow? Man that is awesome! I wouldn't love a tiny little scrog that looked like that!

Yeah, that's my 4x8. Each plant has its own scrog floater screen. So if I need to pull a plant I can. 9 total in there in this clip. I shuffle plants in and out as they ripen.

Sure, I am always open to advice

The instructions for the box call for 1 cup of dolomite lime for growing vegetables. Instead use two cups
