Stretching the scrog

[capricechild92]

"Screen" is a one dimensional plane. "Sea" is a bumpy mass of matter. You have a sea of green, in order to "scrog" your plants remain UNDER the screen. Everytime a shoot goes above you tuck it back under. Thus, spreading the growth under a SCREEN OF GREEN. Nice SOG.

[alohafoxtrott]

wait, did you start the process bt allowing them to grow straight BEFORE the scrog net or have they grown under the net the whole time

[rickythepitbull]

The plant does not stress and this grow is awsome

[mrtourist888]

Doesnt plant get stress when you keep topping them many times ??

[TeslaNick2]

Good ScrOG'ing comes with practice and knowing the growth pattern of the strain your growing.. Best way to learn ....? Just get one started and learn as you go, it's tricky the first few times...

[Skunklord1]

a 1000 watt to veg a mother? uhmm seems to be a bit of overkill....

[BlissfulLifeMusic]

How long do you leave the mesh, because I see in your final grow stage you remove it? And how do you remove it without hurting the plants?

[TeslaNick2]

@BlissfulLifeMusic

The mesh stays on for the rest of the grow, when you harvest you have to cut every branch going through the screen, or you end up dragging lower buds through and damaging them...

scrogging

[chachathehun]

apologies if this question has been asked but:

How long do you veg your plants prior to scrogging?

Thanks in advance!! peace and grow strong!!!!

[TeslaNick2]

@chachathehun The trick is to know how much the strain you're growing is going to stretch after you flip them.

You want to maybe fill the screen to 60-70% whilst vegging and then rely on the stretch to fill the rest of the screen (very strain and pheno dependent). I LST my plants early in veg to flatten it out pre-screen. Everyone has different methods...

[hawkinsa21]

Man, I'm doing my first scrog now. I'm really grateful for your explanation about the nodes lower down the branches. I've not topped any of my stems yet, I'm 5 weeks into veg (net is higher than usual), and I wasn't sure how the lower nodes were going to fill up the net, but I have been pulling back down and moving out towards the edges of the net. Is topping essential? I've read a few guids (ICMag, Grasscity etc) and topping wasn't heavily talked about. FIM failed, so have a long stem to train!

[Fuckthawurld420]

pause at 0:00 dude looks stiggity stoned

[madneess]

@Fuckthawurld420 hahahahahahahahaah

[LawlsWithMe]

this tech seems useless and old- once the nodes and what not have pass the netting, do you like trim and remove all that's under the rest of the netting?

Someone enlighten me so i may have a better insight of this

[popesmag]

wow dude youre gangsta sitting under a 1000 without some glasses.. you may regret this when youre 65. :D

[Budbook]

You can do it, 400gs no problemo!

[pispiricueto]

Thanks guy the first person who esplain it, easy, thanks,

¡¡Muchas gracias colega!!! from spain

[Budbook]

@l000 and @Avedis, l00 you are correct. I was taught not to weave the plant, it can hinder nutrient flow as well as break your ladies if they are not healthy or full of water. I feel much better to always pull the tops of the branch down and feed it under and out to the desired location in the screen. The nodes that are lower on the branch will, by force of Auxin disruption, will grow right up and fill in the area...Look for my next video that will be a photo slideshow -

[Avedis4Life]

I am doing a scrog myself, I never have to tie branches, the plant does all the work as it grows into the screen, all i do is weave the main branches where i want them.

[I000II0I0I]

I've always been told and have read in numerous "Grow Bibles", that you DO NOT want to pull the nodes through the screen but to use it as a guide, always keeping the nodes under the screen and adjusting it's height when necessary. It's been mentioned that you risk stunting or even breaking the plant doing it your way. Any insight on that perspective?

[PP4twenTEE]

yo check out ma new vid..... whats the deal with the my purple power plant- it wont second branch at all-- 2 main kolas??? wtf

[DrChRoNiC78]

hi bro , a question , got 24 clones there into 3weeks now, am running them under 2 600 hps lights , etc , wanna no how do i veg for , done 4 grows now but the cold gothem all the time , ive now invested in a heater , all stems are nice and green , its an unone strain , i think it could be s8/ rhino , i want at least an oz per plant , i have space to put each pot at least a foot apart and the heaight is 7fft , iam going to add red dragon bloom as ive heard it will pimp my yeild, any advice plz

[toweronepower]

@DrChRoNiC78 If u want only 1oz per plant veg until they are 1ft high.

[coacheeese]

Did he seriously say "willy nilly", cmon man.

[ryznphnx]

Thanks for explaining how to run a set up I'm coming from a bucket system from my first grow and wanted to do a 8 plant site dwc with 3.75" cups in a 2x4x6.5 room and your vid made it clear on how to start it

[a1rjord4n]

that looks madd leafy....would it be alright if you were to pluck all those leaves off, leaving alot more expsure too bud sites, or will that just fuck the grow up.

[Toadphillips]

stupid question wtf i a node?

[ddsdavey]

Nice one mate!

I did one like this,just like you i filled my screen almost entirely BEFORE starting flower process.Thanks for the tip about not twisting up the angles to much for nutrient flow,wow dude thats epic! Definitely something i WAS guilty of.

One question,how high above the screen is the "norm" regarding finished height ie from net height to the end of the bud,just wondering about light pnetration as it gets very,very busy above the net,lots of bud sites yes but lots of leaves!

[BroncRidah]

really ya shouldnt topped so far down and try bushmaster

[siondalion]

how long did you veg for?

[jwb864]

nice video its helped me

[Budbook]

Thank you for your response treeguy57. I learned from HighBreed who is a Scrog Master. I am doing what I see and am told. Then when I can do what he does, then, and only then will I try my own ways.

This is how I think it is best to learn form another, by copying just what they do, to the T!

If I did not tie the branch up, the nodes would have grown just right straight up towards the light, but I didn't have the time to let them do that so I assisted the process along by tying them up

[Bodysmoker]

@Budbook Hey dude, nice grow up :P

I'm planning on installing a 2X1.3X1.3 room and i am looking for the most productive way of growing. Do you think working with the scrog method will help increasing my yield?

[treeguy57]

why don't you leave the branch where it is, and train the tops through the screen. that whole under-the-screen tying off shit is a lot of unnecessary work. why would y ou top it? why not just train it back into the screen? i wouldn't be advocating these techniques. a lot of waste and extra work.

you shouldn't have to top the plants once they're growing in the screen if you know what you're doing.

[jackdulaney86]

zip ties they work great for scroging
