Started these in red cups with lightning seed starter and then transplanted to vermifire in 4.2 gallon pots.

Thanks, I appreciate that. I've been pulling my plants out once a week and sanitizing my tent to prevent any possible bug infestation scenarios, I believe preventing is the best policy and it seems to be working and I'm happy about that. I'm going to net them and veg them for 2 more weeks, supercrop them, wait about another week then flip the light. This will be my first time usi g a trellis net so I'm a bit nervous because I have no experience using one but I'm excited at the same time, hopefully all goes well.

well the plants look healthy, nice colour, your dialed in at the moment, just keep it going..
ah you don’t want my opinion on nets, i hate them, absolutely useless probably causes more problems than if not used.. but that’s me.. lots of people use them..

I see. Did you experience better yields at all, and if you don't mind me asking, what problems did you have with it? Thanks

firstly once the net is put in place your limited to getting in and around your grow area, if issues arise after the net is up than it’s in the way to really inspect and treat plants, you can accidentally break more branches and cause more problems than if not used..
well yields are dependent on so many things, i don’t think the net really helps at all..
go ahead and use it for a grow and see if it’s for you.
i’ll make a quick video showing my way..

Thank you so much for making that video, it really puts things into perspective. It seems that nets are a lazy way to LST plants. The chain overhead is a brilliant idea, I commend you on your grow, it looks fantastic! I realky like the fact that you can walk into your grow and focus on individual plants, I now see that with a net it would be impossible. Great post!

also with the net you have to start using it early on than making it difficult to do what you have to do, the way i do it i really don’t have to start tying branches up until 6 weeks flowering, so a much shorter time for any issues and also with being careful with the plants as you’ll have to get used to the branches being tied up, just leave a little room for movement instead of being tied tightly for when you bump into it etc..

Thanks for all of the information, you've been extremely helpful. I'll be sure to leave room for movement.

Man, I really appreciate you taking the time to make a video,again! The golf balls are genius, love the rotational effect, it's very practical. I'll be sure to incorporate your techniques in my grow, and I like the way you're carefree about it and just leave them alone to grow and intervene only when necessary. There's a whole lot of growers who are nervous and angry and constantly messing with their plants. I don't want it to be painful, I want it to be relaxing and fun, just like your grow.

haha,
pretty much the only other easier way is to plant in the ground outdoors..
the golf ball/saucer works like a charm, just need a snug fit and a durable saucer..
