finally got some pictures!
it looks like they are thriving quite well.

just flipped to flower 2 days ago. hoping they dont stretch tooo much. and i'm very stoked because i have my hortilux bulb coming in the mail.

quetion!
Is it bad if 2 tops grow through the same hole? on my big plant it seems like there are too many tops for how many holes. and i cant pull them out as far as the edges.

advice would be much appreciated.

group shot.



big bertha ( purple erkle x gdp)



stretchy mc gee ((kryptonite x green crack) x gdp)



andd lil chubs ( purple erkle x gdp)


any advice is much appreciated

o and my setup s a 600w hps vented, with a 3 x 5 screen. they are in 3.5 gal smart pots with roots 707 and i use ph'd drinking water from safeway. and fox farm nutrients. but im thinking about getting a different flower nutrient like sensi bloom.

So I'm sure people do this, but I don't see it often, is Individual Scrogging.

what i meant is building a small scrog rig for each of your plants based on how big you want them to grow giving you control, ease of maintenance, and the option to do different strains in one scrog setup, opinions?

(i would love to build and sell these lmao but still, opinions?)

Thats kinda what I am doing, or did for this grow with 1 of mine. I made frames out of 1/2" pvc tubing and fittings with feet etc... and used orange snow fence for my screen.

The best thing I think about individual scrogs is the ability to move them if I have to. I grow in a 4x8 tent that I have to place up against a wall so I cant get 360 access to all my plants, at least once a week I have to pull out 2 or 3 plants to get to the 2 in the middle in the back, mobility helps.

I just started building the frame for my next grow based on instructions from the book called secrets of the west coast masters out of wood thats going to be a little different than my pvc framed scrogs, this one will definitely have wheels on it. I'll post some pics of it next time I go to my garden but they are 2x2 frames labeled in a certain manner to assist in training the branches to provide 64 tops, once the plant gets to a certain size and shape, the scrog goes on as normal.

The one thing I am having a tough time figuring out in my head is how to set it up so I can use a 10-15 gallon smart pot and be able to water/flush and have a way for the runoff to be collected (tents create height restrictions if you've never grown in one) without making a mess on my rentals floor. I picked up a bunch of new cement trays awhile back at a tag sale, maybe thinking making the frame stand off the floor 6 inches and big enough to slide the trays in and out...pics to come....

I've seen the green saucers with grommets and drain hoses on them, maybe that would work for your situation? not sure.

Heres that frame I built, I forgot to get a few pics of the ones I'm currently using but this is the one that I copied out of the secrets of the wc masters book. It was supposed to be done in 2x2's but I wasnt paying attention and bought 2x3's, so the next one will be proper but this one is close enough to use for my first time trying it out. Their way of doing it was enough to get me started and on my way to making it better for my situation. A bottom to sit the 15 gallon smart pot in as well as a way to drain it with some longer legs with wheels on them and this thing will be mint....

This is one of my jillybeans that was supposed to be scrogged but I had to settle on LST'ing due to the other JB out growing the one in the pic as well as 2 others that were intended for individual scrog's.

The frame I am using presently

Its 30x26 and cost me about $6 and 15 minutes to make once I figured out how I was going to do it.

Do you understand the NEWS labeling noswag? If you need the other diagrams to understand the news labeling and how they make it work just let me know and I'll post it.

Figured I would share and update of my V-Scrog.... I currently am on Day 9 flowering, running organic nutrient/soil in #3 smartpots. I have going 2 OG101's, 1 Kali Kandi (Chocolope x OG101), 2 Holy Grail OG's, and 1 XJ-13.... I am switching between dual HPS and 1 MH with 1 HPS and currently running dual HPS to encourage the stretch early on in flowering...After I see good bud development I will be switching back to my 400w MH Ushio along with my 600w HPS ushio. Enjoy and feel free to stop by my journal for updates...lots of photos..
