Thanks! Seems like 3months, guess cause I look at them several times a day...lol. So far its been fairly easy, but I dont have another method to compare it with...seeing that I choose DWC for my very first grow. I can see where it would be a problem on a larger scale grow. It does demand your attention every now and then. I've also been using molasses along with my regular nutrients, not sure how much of a difference its making.

I'm assuming you don't own a microscope so just wait until the bud turns a distinctive amber color and looks as if the life is more or less gone and it is looking like fall foliage. Then chop the plant cure it and roll it up

I started out trying to SCROG during the veg stage and after two weeks of flowering I removed the screen, it was getting hard to change the water in my bucket, but by then my plant as half-way trained. If you plan to SCROG, plan out the position and pattern your going to grow in. And make sure your plants are female...it sucks filling up your screen and finding out you have males after flowering. Im definitely going to try it again.

Yeah...i didnt hit me til it was time to do it. I was thinking of putting a drain on my buckets and top feeding the nutrient solution, but I also use molasses and it leaves the buckets kinda nasty so I need to clean every now and then.
