hso purple wreck led scrog

Discussion in 'Indoor Grow Journals' started by Ryan0o, Jul 16, 2015.

  1. Just flipped a pair of purple wrecks into flower. I had these plants vegging off to the side of some autoflowers for the past 9 weeks or so. I stuffed/ bent / crammed them under a screen. I have to clean up the screen a little more, but it seems to be working well after a few days of growth.


    Mars2 400 and Ds100 panel
    5gal pots with ffof, eb stone, ewc, and perlite mix
    I used some dr earth nutes during veg and have ffof stuff for flower.

     
  2. flipped these on 7/11. Here are the before and after pics.

    Subbed up man, gonna be doing a scrog in a month or two for the first time. Will be interested to see how your scrog goes. I'll be using an advanced LED XTE, but unsure what strains am going for yet.


    Have you done many scrogs before? Do you have any favour strains that are suited to scrog?
     
  4. naw man this is my first crack at it. Seems to be a good way to go though. I usually run autos but they all grow a little diff each time. From what i have read, this isnt a very high yielding strain, but it is something my gf likes.
     
  5. Week 1 update.

  8. Week 5! Some pistils are turning at this point. Still getting a lot of rust on leaves. Im glad i used the last of the ffof soil on this run. I hadnt really experienced these deficiencies with the eb stone soil. Anyways, something learned.


    The buds have zero purpling at this point, but smell very very sour lemon. Nothing amazing in size of the buds but lots of frost. This is supposed to be an 8-9 week strain so we are at least the half point of flowering.

    I've got an xte 200 it all I could afford but I noticed results as soon as started using it halfway through an auto grow.
    I'm like you have mostly been growing autos, grow one regular photo white widow on my first grow and then switched
    to various different autos. I'm gonna start my new plants off with the blue light only for a week or so and see how
    it performs in vegging.



    I've just finished building my scrog screen, am unsure how well my the strain I am growing are suited to scroging.
    A few more weeks I'll be set back up and growing, I've got a Tangie Ghost Train either a Choc mint OG or Strawberry Cheesecake to try out.


     
  12. I heard the fuck out of that. Why you think i only grabbed a 100. Lol. Really more of an impulse buy after starting out with cfls. Had I known what I do now I would have 2 of the mars400 in there.


    And im sure whichever strain you choose will train well under your scrog. How big of a screen you doing? What size squares?
     
  13. I actually wanted to get the XTE 300 but it would of been too tight in my tent and I just could't warrant spend that much cash.
    I've only used my XTE 200 midway through an auto grow, so looking forward to starting some regular strains and vegging
    for a month or so. I was considering one of the newer Mars sun series lights but went Advanced in the end as I think they
    have slightly better build quality.


    My screen is roughly 120cm x 60cm which is the length & width of my tent, the size of square is 3" x 3".





     
  14. you could probably do with smaller squares in my opinion. 2" or even 1.5"
     
  15. I could adjust them pretty easy, what size are you running?
    Does it make much difference on the size of squares?



     
  16. eh I don't think itd make too much difference, but smaller squares can mean more squares and less growth needed before you can move a top to a different position. i'm runnin bout 1.5 meself
     
  17. week 6 update. All buds have at least half their pistils turning ar this point.

  18. i took a clone from each plant and put them on my balcony once they rooted. They decided to flower before i noticed so i am going to let them do their thing out here. Clones straight to flower in one gallon pots. Lol
