Hi all fellow scroggers!!! I am also a first time scrogger as well as a first time grower. I have put in hours upon hours of research before I even thought about planting a seed. I too decided scrog was the best method in growing. I would like to express the importance of early training to achieve a full, even, scrog. Early training is as simple as tieing down the top of the plant to prevent it from growing vertically. For a newb trying to understand this it might be overwhelming. Here are a few pics of my early training methods that enabled me to scrog quite easily.
All I did was tie the tops down by drilling holes around the rim of my buckets and tieing them down with some small soft rope. I am very excited to see how they turn out. Her is a current pic of my screen at day 1 of 12/12.
This is 5 plants and I have about 40 tops filling in my screen. Wow, it should be a heck of a harvest!!!!
