OK so I'm getting ready for the second grow .. Last grow only got 1.5oz this time I want more than that and imma get it with your help. So please help by answering questions. When do I switch to flower. When half of screen is full 75% when? Let's say I want plant only to reach max height of a little over 18 inches would I put screen a few inches under that so that buds are just about to that height when done? All help welcomed
how much lighting are you using? how big is your screen? how many plants? how much height can you ave above your screen?
240 watt led....idk what size is screen I was going to do a plywood frame and every 2.5 inches put eye hooks and string..im thinking 1 plant maybe 2 tops it's a closet so height not even a problem working space has to be 2.5 feet by 3.5 feet what you think any advice
you want your screen to be filled PRIOR to switching to flowering. Depending on the strain, your lighting, temperature etc, your plant may stretch upto 50% of its original height at the switch to flowering so you want to save space accordingly. the screen should be full and all tops should be tucked during the switch so that all nodes are relatively the same height throughout the flowering cycle.
I'll be doing a scrog in the coming weeks, I feel your a bit behind me. I'll post my technique on tucking and filling out the screen with pictures in the coming weeks the previous post is correct all nodes need to be roughly the same height at the switch with the first two weeks into flowering filling your save extra space on the screen. The strain dictates how much extra space you need/want. With some firm motivation and si bending is easy. armor si makes the plant less brittle much more springy with scrog or and hst and lst techniques. Speed Is Key
