What is that beast the hand in your avatar is picking-up?
This being my first grow using a six hundred, what is 'the average', if there is one as far as yield goes for a plant? Let's go under the scenario that you have more than one, it's an indica dominant strain and you have not topped the plant.
All opinions welcome.

I held back on saying that in my last post because you seemed set on going 12/12 tomorrow. But with one plant, you may just benefit from a slightly longer veg period. Get a screen and then start LST'ing through the screen. Jig can give you a hander with screens if you need tips(I generally use poles) but the results from people growing one plant this way is staggering. And with the 600 she is going to grow into a big girl fast so only a week or two.....choice is your buddy.
cof, thanks for the comments, appreciated!!
Right guys, the wife has finished designing things on her Mac and has indicated that I need to go to bed as well.....it is 1 in the morning and I am working tomorrow, lol, so i agree. take it easy people.
Peace, DST

The longer veg time and grow you allow her to have before 12/12 will increase the amount of yield. I've been 'short' vegging .....8" to 10"..... and getting anywhere from 1/4 to 1 oz per plant. I just put three bushy 24" plants into 12/12 that should yield betwen 3 & 4 oz each that only yielded 1/2 oz as a short plant...your choice.

I was rotating my plants...90 degrees each day...and I noticed something yellow in an area of green and white on the durga mata.....closer examination showed a nanner....tweezers removed the issue.... so no problem.

Hey folks,
Just wanted to share something with you all, and anyone who cares to stop by our club for a visit. We all know what the benefits of LST, Topping, etc can be. However, why is this so. Well Kat very kindly saved me the hassle of explaining this by posting a brief explanation, just thought I would share. It might be obvious, but sometimes it's nice to see it in Purple and White.
Peace, DST

The initial effect is, like toppping, redistributing the auxins (growth hormones) from focusing mainly at the top of the plant to the lower branches. This is the main reason for the sudden growth of the dormant bud sites, because the redistribution of the auxins basically "tricks" the plant into thinking that the lower branches are now all "main" colas. Of course, the main main cola won't be as large as it would if left alone, but you do end up with more buds that are of higher quality and less popcorn buds. This is why even tying the plant down just once will cause so much more growth from the secondary branches, giving a higher overall yield.
Sometimes you can fool with Mother Nature, so long as you play by her rules while you're at it.

very concise and informative post! id love to do scrog but i run with anywhere upto about 9 or 10 plants and its just going to be a nightmare to try and remove some but not all without damaging the others, if only my tent had another door at the back

I agree, I like my plants to be moveable if required. I can't imagine trying to flush my girls with them growing through a net. McFunk was going to do a scrog for each plant (so he was able to move them) but I guess this is also just like having or using poles to tie.

sounds good i guess easy enough to set up in square pots 4 canes and the net tied between them but the net would be limited in size to the dimensions of the pot. i might have a crack at a side by side in a while for shits n giggles if it works i might roll it out

You in IT, Don?....Roll it out....OR/ perhaps a carpet fitter, lol.
Well I am utilising ye olde poles at the moment purely for LST purposes. When the plant has the shape I take the pole out and use it somewhere else. I am also of the thinking, if your bud is supported then it doesn't have to fight against gravity, which I see as making the buds stronger. So if the plant can support the weight, let it be I say....but SCROG's certainly look very cool. Anyone feel free to say otherwise....

i reckon it could be hasslesome to remove once you've started weaving the plant through, but as with most things in this game till its been tried who knows!!
did your stretch much after the removal of the screen?

Na, na, I don't weave a scrog brother, just pull them under and redirect them. That way you can pull the screen any time you want to
We are only talking a week or two until we let them go again.
Mine were later in flowering (4th or 5th week) they did not stretch at all after pulling the screen.

like i say ive never run a scrog so is the idea to spread the shoots out like a spider rather than under and over them i take it!? i know loads about dope but i love it when i learn new shit.
yeah that would make a lot of sense to spread the plant out then let it boom neat idea
