Do you weave scrog during flip?

I would do it either at the end of the transition when the flowers are starting to show up, basically when some people defoliate. Or do it grandually over the next 1-2 weeks while you are still tucking, and then leave it alone once transition is done, so it can flower without stress.
thanks yea i wasn't sure about the stress part especially since i am hoping a lot of these small bud sites shoot up during the stretch phase. when would you recommend i stop tucking? i usually see flowering happen around week 3 on my strains so would i weave first 2 weeks and then let grow or up until week 3? not sure how these strains grow of course. i was just gonna tuck first week only but wanted opinions since my first scrog

I've only ran a few scrogs, but I've followed many over the years. The ones that always seem the most successful at canopy management are the ones that tuck until they see the first signs of flowering begin, and then stop and leave them grow.

You can still tweak as needed ( as long as stems are fairly pliable ) but there will be a point that you will not add anything more to the equation. After a week or so under flip , it begins to change gears and work on budsites building. That’s why a good Scrog DURING VEG fills the quadrants you are looking for. Some sativas try to get vertical at various points especially if your chosen light system has a more dominate light center over a more uniform spread.

Personally as soon as I notice any mid / lower stem sites going vertical , I just let them do their thing.
Sometimes the fringe corners will stretch as it wants light ( depending on your footprint ).

I am already anticipating it be a shitty attempt at a scrog but im gonna try and fix some stuff and hopefully it works if not it's screwed for sure.

yea i would try that out but i have no zip ties. i had a shit load before from computer parts that i never used but i think i threw them away when i moved rooms a few months ago. can't go out and buy some either cause no car. if i hit up a store soon then i might do that but more then likely i wont be hitting up any stores. i like to free hand everything as well like if it was just my original 1 fem plant i might have tested this out but most grows i seen online they don't tie um down. some do but it didn't seem necessary enough imo. imma try it out eventually though not my last scrog for sure. try it both ways and fuck around with it see which one grew better buds or was easier to maintain.



yea i want to clone this girl she grew very nice for my liking but i got to research how to clone. i don't got any plugs like most people use all i got is some compost + clonex + solo cups so i might try it with that and hopefully she takes root.
Alot of people say you only need water to clone if your doing it right. I cloned 4 tomato plants last year just to see if they would grow. I put 2 in reg water and 2 in water with a tbsp of honey and changed the water in both each day for 2 weeks reapplying a tbsp of honey to one cup each time I changed the water. Beither one in plain water grew any roots.. However the cup with the honey rooted both cuttings in less than 14 days. One being rooted very well.. Planted and grew well. Just with honey!!

nice i dont know much about cloning i mean i get the jist of it using plugs but never did much research into it. i dont really have space either to start clones i got multiple lights but no space. outdoors i can try and grow um but my outdoor plants typically flower immediately due to lack of sunlight they get plus illegal in my state as well unless your a medical patient. imma fuck around with cloning in the future though for sure kind of waiting on these state laws to go through supposedly they will legalize recreational use in 2021 here but we will see. they just "decriminalized" like 1 week ago but not really imo and they said some shit about how they wont legalize recreational use but we see.
