i was jsut reading there and i wanted to ask would itbe a good idea to do a scrog grow wit auto flowering low ryders? is there anythign i need to know to set about doing it??
Hi,
please note that I am not speaking from experience, but many years spent researching how to grow weed.
SCRoG works best with varieties that branch a lot or plants that have been topped to promote branching. You also need to time the flip right so that the plant will have enough time to grow the branches that will run along the screen.
Since auto strains typically do not branch much, or at all, using a SCRoG would be very difficult.
Also, due to their autoflowering trait, and the short vegetative phase, there isn't really enough time for them to grow a nice canopy under the screen.
You could try compromising a little on pot size perhaps and crowd them in SOG to maxmize your limited growing space. Square pots are good for this since the fit nicely together.
Good luck!
