Hey Audius Nice Grow! Have a few questions....What made you choose this method? was it the strain, height restrictions, or yield? Looking to start my first indoor and I will have height restrictions but I love sativas...somebody told me this was the way to go...but looks kinda difficult...

the reasons why i did it this way was because some of my plants would grow faster than the others,making it hard to keep even lighting without burning something,,wanted more canopy controll.max out the yeild,,with just 3 plants this round i was looking for a way to get the most out of what i had,,i also just like expermenting with new ways of growing,,,allways tring to find a new bigger,better way :devil its really not that complacted,u should give it a go. this way you wont have the hight problim :fixed:

Not difficult at all! In fact, if you have certain physical restrictions, it can make some aspects of growing easier. The main thing is to set it up so that *you* can work with it most easily.

Two main pros of scrogging are that you can much more easily control the canopy height, and that you can grow fewer plants and still have the best possible yield.

One con is harvesting methods have to be adjusted. I normally pull the whole plant, hang it upside down til ready for breaking down and trimming. Can't do that well with a scrog, especially if you did end up leaving enough lower bud sites that you end up with stuff below that hasn't matured as quickly as the stuff topside. Staggered harvest is the way to deal with that.

I have been using poultry netting for the last few harvests........YA it is tough working the small holes. I have nirvanas white widow and I am about to swap the screen on here to a larger holes. I Think my veg will be faster as well. I am soil so I need to be able to move them around. I am going to use something similiar to 4''x4'' holes.

Keep ip the good work!!
