Thanks! Should be setting her up under it soon. Going to bend her down first then up through the scrog. Wish I could top her, but since she's an auto (I hope!) don't want to set her back any.

Day 23. We're up to 5 nodes, getting some penetration to the lower shoots via LST. She's still looking nice and green. I think I'm still going to keep bending her main stem down to shorten as much as possible before I put the scrog in. Still not convinced this truly is a fem Super Skunk Auto since people have had issues with NSN not getting what they say they are. In any case, it is definitely indica dom and looks nice nonetheless. Just hope I don't see big donkey nads in the next few weeks.

Day 30. SCROG has begun! Main stem has been tucked a few times, there are lower colas creeping toward the screen . Nutes for the first time today at 1/4 dose of Dynagrow Foliage Pro as I'm starting to see a few lower leaves change and cotyledons have yellowed.

Maybe keep two CFL's in there. On my last grow used LED, but felt a little cfl added something to the mix. Maybe it is UV or something. Plant seemed to like it.

Good idea, I've been thinking about that. Need to figure out where to plug em in but as soon as I do I'll throw 2 6500k 43 watters in there. Thanks Sunny!

Thanks bro! It's supposed to be feminized, but I got the seeds from a sketchy seed bank.

Hey, thanks for stopping in! Yeah indica dom, like I mentioned to radisues I got it from a seedbank that has recently just vanished and many people got seeds from the but they didn't end up being what they were advertised as. It's supposed to be a Super Skunk Fem Auto, so at least we are looking indica Dom :)

image.jpg Indica is the way to be. I like the shorter ladies. This is my first run with hydro in rockwool. Took me a couple months to get the right ppm and nute amounts. LED also a first. The lady on the bottom left suffered my learning curve but looks to be healing up great, she's day 18 today in flower. There is five more much healthier plants next to here. Day 7 for them. Four are clones from my first plant and 1 undetermined sex from seed. Hoping for another girl. It's resilience is remarkable, I cut one clone from it and the clone never yellowed like the rest and has an amazing set of roots already while most of the other haven't even popped a thing. Keep up the good work.

Take a clone or two. I've taken my last bunch of clones from my plants within the first week of flower. With the additional preflower beginning the plants are supposed to grow much bushier.

They look nice! Yeah that learning curve is real steep, luckily these plants are very resilient. I thought I've killed plants, burned um, overwatered etc, but ALL made it through to harvest. Really is just a way to learn by seeing first hand what certain mistakes look like :). Not sure I'll clone this one, I have a lot of other seeds I'm wanting to try and this is kind of a project to work on growing in small spaces. I've just finished up a harvest too and will be starting a larger scale one soon once I reset everything :)

I'm also working on a small space grow but it's not all that small. Homemade poly tent. 4x4 flower and 3x4 veg. Both 300 watt full spectrum led. Posts like this help everyone.

Day 38 since sprout. More and more colas are reaching above the scrog, just been bending them under slowly but surely. I'm going to try my best to fill the screen as much as possible. Really curious how tall each cola will get too come flower time, I may still need to bend if they get too close to my light.

Mate.nice progress.I got a couple of home-made cabs.My growing pre-dates grow tents and im a builder so i have
lots of panels and timber handy.thinking of rebuilding my LED box.How close to the light is the tops and what watts are u burning.
I have had good results using 200 watts on on plant.My grow is perpetual style ,not scrog.I also use a vertical 250 watt mh,in another
cab.If i were scrogging iid be using a small hydroponics set-up.homemade hydroponics is dead cheap if you have a few tools to cut holes etc.double your yields it will.happy growing dude.:peace:
