So heres my idea... 400w hps 3x3 tent 2x2 scrog net 1 plant in a waterfarm using Lucas Formula What if I were to veg for like ever and completely fill the screen and then let them go verticle a little bit, maybe 2"-3". then kick them into flower with a respectable amount of Bushmaster. could i sorta create a one plant scrog sog? what do u guys think? i havnt dropped the bean yet as im waiting for my last few to finish up. It will either be a Purple #1 or a Jack Herer.
If you top after the 3rd leaf set, and then FIM the new growth, ayou will have plenty of branches to fill out your screen in about 1 month using DWC and the lucas method, on average. it take me 3 weeks, with the screen set @ 10" above medium, to fill 80% of it. I usually use 2 plants for a 2x2 ft screen, so i can veg fast, since its a small grow(2x2ft). Do yourself a favor a train the branches, dont just let he plant grow thru the screen. the technique for the scrog method depends on an even canopy to maximize light exposure, therefore produces more buds (Higher Yields). Peace out and good luck with your scrog. *****IMPORTANT****** Fill the screen to 70-80% FULL. The stretch from first 2 weeks of flower (strain dependent), will fill in the rest. best yields from indicas, in my experience, came from 10"-20" tall (from the screen) colas. 12-17 inches is ideal, depending on your light distance and intensity (for canopy penetration sake).
