I am having to support quite a few branches by tying them up with garden tie wire. I bought a small spool of it so I can have whatever length is needed and have been tying up the skinny looking branches and the lower branches. I've tied the main stalks back to the wire mesh on all of the clones and one Peacock that was leaning pretty good.
It just looks like it's going to be a nightmare come harvest time. It also looks like it will be the biggest run I've had in some time :bigjoint: (knock on wood, lol)

The next vert scrog I run indoors, I'm going to spend an evening with a spool of wire and some cutters and make a hook for each intersection of the cage's wires and secure them there so that a branch or limb can be grabbed any where at any time.
I can be clumsy with my hands, and have damaged the ladies when tying & untying (usually stoned while doing it. ;-) )

I've always had to support plants with ties when running vertical gardens. Just not on this scale. I am sure this will be a great run for me and am sure, like you say, it will be worth it. I am glad I chose this strain for my clones because it really bushes out. I see so many bud sites when I look around in there already, and it's only been 11 days of 12/12 so far. I am very pleased indeed, lol

I like that idea Doob and will probably do something like that when I harvest this round. I'll already have a bunch of ties in there so I would just have to fill in the gaps. The question is, how long do you make the ties? Some of mine right now are kind of long.

I was going to make mine stick inward towards the light only about an inch, that way they aren't tight against the mesh and can't grow into the danger-zone of heat from the light, but if you grow thick-stemmed/branched strains just make sure to have a big enough hook on the end to keep her where you want her

Or, if you know how close you can get the leaves/buds to the light, you can increase the length to suit your needs.
