Thanks man!.. yes sir, that's just 1 inch pvc that i got at a plumbing supply store. I glued the connections at the top of the feet only. The whole setup has just 3 sizes of pipe. The feet, the laterals, and mid supports. I can take it down or set it back up in about 30 min. Going from memory here, but I think the whole thing cost around $147 out the door. After learning how these Ethos strains stretched, I cut the legs down so I can try and weave and tie during the next 2 weeks before flip. Im hoping this round turns out a little better for harvesting by making it easier.

These are some of the extremes we have to do with this Berger BM7. Love the way it drains, but we have to feed in at 10.5 PH for two feedings, and then back it down to 9, then finally 8 to get it from 5.1 starting, to a mid 6’s settle. You’d think that large of a PH swing would have some kind of affect on them, but it doesn’t. Matter of fact, I need to shit can 6 of these, but I’m having a hard time finding 6 I want to part with. ... they all look so pretty.

No, we don't. Talking to my supplier, they make a Berger BM7 that has a starting of 7 PH, (added lime), so I think I will have him special order that for me on the 5th run. It's not that big of a deal other that we go through a lot of Rasta PH up to get it leveled. The way we are set up, it would be a bigger pain in the ass to saturate/flood the medium before we transplanted the clones. Thinking back on it though, the cloner (aeroponic) is started in ~5.8 PH, so maybe this is not a bad deal... I dunno.

Well, about 90% of the screen is covered on 2 trays, and tray 1 is just touching the screen. They are good stretchers on tray 1 tho. Thinking of flipping on Monday. That will be the end of week 7 with clones. It’s been tedious work tucking everything through the net, but relaxing at the same time. It’s not back breaking because the top of the net is about belly button height, and I can slide these trays 17 inches either way, so I got plenty of working room. After the flip, we are going to start lollipoping everything below the net and see how this turns out. Hoping for an even field of buds.

Man, I’m excited about this round! I’ve taken all the info I could muster on SCROG., and I hope I get it at least 50% right.

Looking awesome brother. In the future you may want another layer of trellis up higher to hold the heavy buds up in later flower. I am glad the whole pH trick is working for you, looks like you have them right where you want them. You are a beast brother!
