Welcome to week 4 since they popped the soil. I was going to use individual scrog screens but couldn’t make them work. I installed a 2x4 stretch scrog screen instead. It will be interesting when I need to remove the watering bases from a SCROG, but we’ll cross that bridge when we get there. Overall I’m doing a poor job of plant training so far. I topped them once and haven’t done much else. I will do my best to weave the tops into the screen for a half ass SCROG. I think I’d be better off with two plants instead of three, but this will just fill the scrog faster.
Still seeing some yellow on one set of leaves. I’m wondering if I didn’t buffer some of the coco sufficiently and I’m experiencing a magnesium issue. It could also be caused by the relatively high ph I had in the reservoirs (6.8). I added some Epsom salt and a high concentration of CalMag to the latest nutrient water and topped off. Reservoirs are at 6.0 ph and 750ppm.
I now have a dehumidifier, humidifier and heater residing outside of the tent and pumping air/moisture through hoses on the left side of the tent. I’m ready to drop the humidity when the flowering starts. Durban Poison is from hot and dry South Africa, so I will try to mimic that climate soon.

Since ya have all those plants individual screens can't happen. This net is your only real option.
Yeah more plants will fill things up faster but it's not always a productive way to go. Less is more in scrogging.

Yes, I’m not feeling good about this SCROG but I’m proceeding with this plan regardless. I think I need to raise the net up slightly and keep topping and weaving branches. I have done a poor job of bending branches to spread them out when they were smaller. I have some branch clips arriving tomorrow to help train a few branches under the net.
I primarily want to control her height since she’s a Sativa-dominant plant. If she looks anything like your Durban Poison I’d be thrilled with that outcome.
