How much height are y'all needing on average for your SCROG grows (specifically sativa dom plants)?
Click to expand...

My screen height is 34.5" from the table

Tallest Sat Dom cola is 22" above the screen with the average cola height from the Sat being 20"

Under the screen, of that 34.5" height, 11" is taken up by the 5gal pot

With standard 8' high ceilings my magnum xxxl hoods are almost raised as high as it can with 20" from glass of hood to highest Sat cola (22" above screen)

I went and measured, I dont know this off the top of my head.

When you SCRoG you should compensate for the flowering stretch! What I mean by that is you shouldnt have more than 70% of your screen filled before flipping that way you can have room to tuck for the stretch IMO.

Peace

^ not all strains or even individual phenotypes are going to fill 30% of the screen during photoperiod. Get to know your plant. That's the rule of thumb. Old literature may suggest generalized information. We have come a long way here in Enter the Scrog. Keep it up gents, your building the future!

What up Citizens? I am on my 4th grow and have learned a lot from several of you guys. I have recently started my first SCROG and I it is amazing. I am hooked on the SCROG method and will only grow like this from now on. It only makes sense! Along with this SCROG i dropped the use of any bottled nutes, and went with an AACT with my FFOF. I must say...for the first time ever I have not had one, I say 1 nutrient deficiency. My plants are green super healthy. I am using two different bat guano's one for veg and one for flowering, mixed with chicken manure and worm castings. I even smash up raspberries and blue, black berries into the AACT. I read in a few places it gives your buds a smooth sweet taste...we will see.

Well thats why I said 70% because it seemed that they didnt know what their plant did in flowering. Just like not all strains are suitable for SCRoG!

I'm very interested in scrog. A little hesitant since I'm familiar with dwc and want to continue this method. Any help with dwc scrogs? Links? Advice? Growing in a closet with 600 watt dimmable ballast set at 50% because of heat.

Appologies FMILY, if my comment came off abrasive and contrary. Not intentional.

Organic comes with life!, the catapiller nah, the butterfly can stay. And the lady bugs. And the baby mantis. The python... (I don't do cats ;) ) were good, roll on.

Attaching the screen to the lid of plants individual (ie bucket etc) res allows you to remove the plant while still in the screen, dump, clean, fill etc. If a bucket with clean new solution is ready, its quite simple to just pick up the screen, plant, bucket lid, and root system all as one, and set onto the new bucket.
Current systems and reciculation obviously can get around such things. Scrog will work with any system. Design can make or break the feisability and functionality. May want to consider pulking heat from a hood, to avoid uninteded stretch/elongation. Nice time of year to have extra heat to disperse. :)

I'm out brothers, healing/treatment is going very well! Looking forward to scrogging greenhouses this spring. :) be well good people.

you're right dude. i've yet to grow a strain, even with diff. phenos of same strain, that didn't double or more in height flowering, lol. 70-80% is a very good number to use. i don't scrog these days, but 70-80% was cutting it pretty close for me on a couple occasions. there are some things in growing that don't change. and so far, i haven't found a strain that didn't stretch in flower. i actually look forward to the stretch, lol! the last part of veg, and the first part of flower, is when i begin tying down. peace
