(Right sorry about the very rough diagram hope you understand what I mean.) So as they start to grow taller than the ScrOG net you bend the branches back under, rinse, repeat?Let the plants grow then put the net in and bend the branches under it. I like to bend the branches under multiple times just to make sure everything is even.
Hi there, first time poster here. So I have never used the ScrOG technique but was thinking of using it this run. This may be a stupid question but do you simply put the net above the plants and just let them grow, or do you have to weave the branches through each section like as they penetrate through. Cheers lads
Yeah I didn't mean fully spiral them like that but like bend them underneath the net sort of thing?Not quite. It's more just bending them and less spiraling.
Agreed.Yeah I would put it just above the plants. Right before you flip to flower and than use it to bend plants into every square possible to help even out the canopy. That at least is what I have been doing.
You can also do it right before you flip and than push down on the canopy to get the same affect. Never done it this way but have several buddies who have.
Keep in mind if your plants are growing super healthy you will need a second trellis on top to support the top colas. I would instal this after 2 weeks of flower and work it down into the canopy gently about 2/3 inches.

Nice one cheers mate, that makes senseYeah I would put it just above the plants. Right before you flip to flower and than use it to bend plants into every square possible to help even out the canopy. That at least is what I have been doing.

Do you use potassium silicate? I find it strengthens the branches enough they don't need support.Agreed.
The second scrog is usually more just for support so that the stems don't break from cola weight.
Never heard of it. I'll look into it.Do you use potassium silicate? I find it strengthens the branches enough they don't need support.
I use it during veg only...... always was advised to not use it during flower. And so never have...... not to say it can't be usedDo you use potassium silicate? I find it strengthens the branches enough they don't need support.
I quit about half way through flower. Buds are freakishly dense but don't fall over.I use it during veg only...... always was advised to not use it during flower. And so never have...... not to say it can't be used
I tried the weave method when I first started getting into scrog and it works ok but it's very difficult to not create a jungle that crosses over itself everywhere. What I do these days is preplan the structure of the plant. Like let's say you have a 4x4. 6 inch squares. That's 8x8 in squares. What I do in this scenario is mainline or flux whatever they're calling it nowadays top your plant until you get 8 mains in the shape of 2 rows of 4. Do this with 2 plants. Put them side by side so its 2 rows of 8. Make sure they go straight down the middle of your screen, then with an imaginary line split those 2 rows in half and make then go in opposite directions and once they reach the edge of the screen prune it up to where theres 1 branch going through each square and flip. Throw a second support trellis on top after stretch. Lollipop up to first screen and do some top to bottom defoliation to increase light penetration. Then just let her go and watch the magic happen. I know it's a lot to take in at once if you have questions I've got answers ;)
