1st time grower here 8) Ill be trying a scrog this month. I have a 3x3x7 gorilla tent, 400w mh/hps with carbon filter and 6' fan. Filter hanging above the light.
I will be using 1 20g smart pot with my organic soil mix. 1 plant.
Am I safe to go with a 3x3 trellis in my tent? What yield should i be expecting with this 20g pot in this relatively small tent?
Should i go with a few smaller plants instead? I was thinking go big.
 
Hey ryan, I did a SCRoG in my 2 x 4 tent with a 400 watt HPS with one plant. I used a Milk Crate which is approximately 12 gallons and lined it with fabric (kind of like a smart pot) lol. I see no problem doing a 3 x 3 with one plant in 20gal smart pot. I am not good at guessing yields, a shit load of stuff is factored when determining a yield. Healthy plant usually equals healthy yield. Hope that helped ya!

Helped out a bunch, ill be going with the one 20g then. Ill post pictures once everything is set up. Thanks again
 
20 gallons seem huge for a 3x3 area to be completely honest. i go 10 gallons pot on my 4x4 screen and still only have to water it every 4th or 5th day with coco in full bloom. i think that big with soil or even coco would be too much as it wouldnt dry out enough and fast enough in between waterings. unless its outside.
 
I'm running an 8 gal airpot... More of a growing medium , more room for potential roots ... Coco can be fed just about daily if you want and will dry faster than soil.. but all mediums have there ups and downs... She will need time to fill out... Where if you did several smaller pots they would fill your canopy faster...
 
A friend here, made me a T shirt that's bad A$$, its got a screen with tops emerging in the background and says "get flat?" I LOVE IT! THANKS BUDDY!
 
I am doing a 4x4 SCROG in a tent - I was curious what advice you guys might have for how to effectively reach the back line of plants to clear out dead leaves etc?

I am not sure I understand what you are saying to do... are you saying to remove all the plants from the screen and take them out of the tent? I am talking about plants that are a good foot above the screen.

In a SCROG you can put your plants in a tray or on a table with casters &Oxy Pots.jpg attach the screen so you can move the whole thing around in the tent to access all sides.
 
Yup, keifs right. All in all I was being silly with my explination buddy, eh something to think about and experiment with. Most folks don't run with the idea until they have already experienced how well the technique works yet how challenging and possibly over burdening it can be made. Over the years, with all the time I have spent on my back looking up through screened cannopy and bent over tucking, or even from a chair reaching in, it dawned on me that small single plant units that I had seen folks build and the rolling carts I had been using could be all in one design. From there it was quickly understood that this whole method can be all inclusive in a single unit. Rolling in and out, spinning 360, and raising and lowering (tray for pot). Additional secondary trellising is easily attachable and it too can be made to raise and lower. This whole new concept of how to scrog using a single plant unit developed my interest in creating a company that designs, markets, sells, and instructs folks on use and technique etc. So eas the birth of Scrog Technologies...(hiring soon ;) )

If your already there, and you have maintenance needed at the rear of your tent (assuming your tents design does not allow for unzipping the rear (they do make em) you can use tools such as "grabbers" for old folks (you know, the "claw") to reach etc. I suspect however, the harder your setup is to maintain, the more advanced your next run will be. (Hence our single plant pods now).

Be well and enjoy the run friends!
