still checkin out RIUs new format but should grow on me.
but heres sum ladies vegging as promised.
Sum have taken off after the FIM recovery so ive LSTd them (low stress trained) to the drippers. if u look close at the closeup ull see the clone bent sideways and tied down switching the auxins to focus growth on the side secondary shoots. still a learning process since im already training before i put them in the flower room underneath the actual scrog netting so i hope this type of training is ok and will still allow me to weave thru the netting in the next couple weeks.
Im on veg week #4 now and waiting for the smaller ladies to catch up so i can have an even canopy to start flower with and keep even thru the switch. most are at "12 tall and smallest at 9" so just waiting now.
gonna do one more feeding from the nute rez then empty the rez and flush with plain RO water and get them on their last nute mix for veg. not sure if ill go to week 6 of veg or flip before then.
too be honest ive gotten flat out exhausted after all that work building those rooms alone for the most part my energy has been depleted and i havent done much of anything for two weeks except tweaking the veg room and workin on the new mother station. so i still gotta get the flower room dialed asap before i can even consider flipping the switch.
but anyways temps in the veg room have been perfect and i picked the strongest 4 sour grape cuttings i had and thru them in the waterfarm bucket system that has been converted to a drip feed system and maintains/balances my ph levels even across all buckets now. (well so far haha)
the master bubba kush 4 cuttings were thrown in the remaining 4 buckets to start mothers. gotta start feeding them soon and hope they take off. im gonna need cuttings asap so my cycle wont be perfectly dialed yet but timeline will b close and ill get it adjusted after the new mothers are up and growing. but heres the pix enjoy
oh an check this bitch out. weird that shes in the middle and treated the same as the others striving around her but shes losing the battle... ive checked the drippers each watering and its fine so not sure wat i did wrong but oh well ill pullher soon and check it out

k so im gettin ready to pik up my supplies and start building my scrog netting. look to discuss diff ways to build it and more importantly to me; diff ways of scrogging and the theories behind diff methods...
so for the materials im lookin to just make support stands out of PVC and i like the metal wire fencing style u use for drywall and shit. idk if ud called it chicken wire but its stronger then the netting trellis ive seen. ive also seen the green plastic type used but the metal wire support seems best to me. unless u guys got a reason i should reconsider.
wat i have been tryin to figure out from all my books and videos and readin all these threads, wat are the diff ways pees are scrogging and why.
#1; horizontal net 12" above base of plant, tuck the top of the main shoot under the netting and let it continue to grow sideways as the smaller shoots are now growin vertically thru the netting and turn into colas?
#2; horizontal netting 12" above base of plant, weave the main shoot in and out of the netting and let side shoots grow vertically thru as well?
#3; horizontal netting etc; each plant grows freely thru the netting and netting is used basically for support?
i understand the heigth of the netting could be lower or higher depending on strain but 12" seems pretty good for the strains ive chosen and dont want to veg forever. unless again sumone has sumthing to say that i should reonsider.
also im aaware of trimming everything below the netting for humidity pests etc issues.
wat im lookin to discuss with everyone is there versions of scrog theyve done themselves or have followed other grows. please feel free to post pix of ur own grow or any other scrog uve come across.
plz no bashing on others theories and ideas, but also no bullshit posts.
i want everyone to feel comfortable posting ideas and theories and asking questions. im lookin to hear everyones ideas out and make my own decision or modify wat i like, dont like etc.
so please post away.

8-12 inches is fine for screen height. Train all shoots horizontally under the screen until week 2 of flower roughly, flip 12/12 when roughly 70-80% of the screen is full. Then stop all training and your buds will all emerge vertically above the screen. around week 3 you can lolipop everything below the screen, you should have 100% canopy coverage at that pt.
#3 isn't a scrog at all imo. Although easy you can accomplish the same thing with tomato cages.
pics around here if I could just find them... Planning to employ the chicken wire scrog in my new setup in the fall so I've been researching.
