Is it too late to start a SCROG

They’re 2-3” from being 2’ tall and 2’ wide.
My initial intentions were to mother them at first, but I started to add to my collection and decided to just clone and flower the donor to keep all potential mothers around the same size (I received well before the others).

They’ve currently been in these 3 gal air pots for about 2-3 weeks, but I plan on throwing them in 7 gals when the time comes. Should I just tomato cage/trellis them or could I still scrog them out? If so, this will be my first attempt and all help will be welcomed.

Thanks in advance.3A5F7C6E-A5DE-4118-B4FF-8C79459D90F7.jpeg

Yes no problem you can still scrog them, on occasion I don't bend/net until the 3rd-4th week of 12-12

Yeah you can definitely scrog wait till the day after you water let the stalks be nice and flexible so not to break or damage joints

Hey thanks for the quick responses.
Do y'all think 7gal is enough or should I do 10's?
Any references, links or vids of setup for a complete Scrog noob to view or look over?

Built my own used 3/4” pvc for frame, drill holes and put in hooks I made a net using garden string. The net is 10x5’ I do ten plants in it. I run the scrog 8” above the top of my pot I use 30 gallon pots veg for 90 days, trans planting from solo cup into two gallon pot. Usually on week two topping first time then about 8 or 10 days later more transplanting into 30 gallon about 9 to 12 days later then topping and doing lst throughout the whole time . In the end my scrog set up cost about 15 bucks maybe 20

I run 10's in my 4x4... apply a trellis on week 3-4 of flower. Average about 8-9 oz/per plant.

I know right!
The funny thing is that I do, but being that I'm just starting back up after 8+ years of inactivity, I'd rather keep it small and manageable. But looking at his setup is very tempting.

I'd transplant into bigger pots then.

Yeah, from the looks of things and it's only 2 you would suggest at least 10's right?

Was hand watering now I’m using 12 inch halos and misters with a 20 gallon reservoir I built a frame out of 2x4s to surround my net and attached 10 mil plastic all my water collects in there there’s usually not much as I try not to over saturate I use a living soil and the net is 19 inches I think now give it take a inch or so when I make the occ frame I don’t glue so easily adapted for whatever comes up but I run the net 8 inches above the top of the soil level
