ive been pinching and bending them the whole way through lol they dont stop effin growing man...im kinder happy with the tent without them to be honest bro, i think 15 was slightly over doing it lol my mates just bought the same set up so his happy to look after them til he starts his own. Is it only me that cant stop thinkin about there next grow at all times?!? I'm only half way through and im obssessing about what style of grow to do next lol!! I've got a much bigger space prepared for next time and cant decide if to grow 6 monsters in 50ltre airpots M Blaze style, or wether to go with the 36 pot IWS system.??!?!?!?

hahaha thank fuk its not just me then!! dont really know much about SCROG meself, i just plant them and let them do there thing really. Hear what ya sayin about less is more, its just the long vegging thats putting me off the monsters, id start them else where now if i wasnt goin away in july. You guys know anything about them IWS systems? I know a fella who gets over 300oz off a 36 set up and he only veg's for 2 weeks. He swears by them

yeh there abit of a mystery when it comes to finding people on the net using IWS systems, it stands for INTELLIGANT WATERING SYSTEM, which im sure u already knew lol, the fellors in growell are always raving about them and like i say, i know of someone who averages between 8-12oz per plant using them. I'd just like to see a journal where someones using them before taking the gamble as they are on the pricey side....I'm reverting back to the airpots now tho after i've just seen your little result lol fookin decisions man!!

I'm of the other opinion. Lots of small ones, the light only penetrates 2 feet max (i read that somewhere) so owt above 3 three feet and the lower bud doesn't get enough light to grow to its full potential.

Great looking grow mate

looks like the IWS crack is more or less the same as the auto pots but on a dripper system so yeah the plants are getting exactly the right amount of feed, yeild should be at the top end.

just noticed man youve got the hps's hanging vertically, or have you?! one shot looks like it one doesnt?!

looking very i think you'd be better off leaving the hoods up to maximise the light facing down i imagine the light off the top will be reflected back down via the tent doing the same thing just weakening the lumens but this is an un educated mate

lol nice one don....i read your planning on doing an outdoor flex somewhere, i was thinking of doing the same thing with the afghan No1 plant i removed from my tent....its still vegging in my loft and its taller and wider then me lol do you rekon it would be worth it? would i need to go and tend to it or just leave it until october? i dont have a scooby doo when it comes to outdoor...or i was thinking of buying a 60litre airpot and sticking it under a single 600w and letting it grow huge in the apex of the loft Mblaze stylee??? decisions man lool

hmmmm difficult one man id probs do it indoors. its going to be a right mare getting a plant that big to somewher safe outdoors. tho if you can do that it would be massive come september mate. the loft will likely get pretty toasty in the summer with a 600 in it ;)
