Where to begin.im kinda new to this indoor thing plenty of outdoor experience. well i have a 5x5 7 feet tall homemade grow box 400watt hps/mh,6 in inline plus carbon filter,mylar on walls. i was thinking for my first grow i want to try scrog. its white widow from bcseedking. here are a few ?s. 1. how many plants could i succesfully grow with a scrog under a 400 watt? 2. should i use 3gal pals? 3.how far should i keep the net/wire above the medium? 4. should i top the plants? if so could u point me in the direction of techniques for scroging with pictures/drawings if possible. keep on smokin
1. i have 6 plants under 1x400w and its working very nicely 2. sounds good, the bigger, the more place the roots will have 3&the rest: do some research in this forum, we have some great FAQ's about scrog (including pictures)
1. 4-6. Lots of lst and topping needed to fill the screen if you do 4, 6 will require less but heck, why do less????lol. Top, top, top, top and then top one more time,lol (check the "4-way" tutorial in my sig) 2. Yes, don't go smaller, if anything, bigger. More soil= more roots, more roots= more bud 3. I built mine at 15" so I can use it for any plant. If needed, I simply raise the plants individually so they all meet the screen evenly 4.See #1
thx man.....LBH's 4-way LST Tutorial (w/ "topping" sub tutorial)....that has to be one of the best lst/topping tutorials ive seen. i cant thank you enough. i was looking for a tutorial w/pics++rep
