Thanks mate.
Evening mate! Welcome and thanks, i try my best to keep it up to date as i can.
I used the following to build the scrog
- 6m (3 x 2m lengths works best) x 32mm PVC waste pipe (B&Q)
- 4 x "L" bends (B&Q)
- Bag of 100 little metal hooks (Amazon) - i only used 48 of them in the end, but i screwed some in my bucket lids to use to tie the plants down!
- 1/8inch drill bit for guide holes (I already had this)
- White nylon string (Sewing shop)
I cut the 2m lengths at 90cm with a hacksaw, i did this to 2 lengths and had 2x90cm and 2x110cm, joined them with my elbows. I placed a hook every 7.5cm. I got 11holes by 13holes (143 holes total). Then i just threaded one way (the 90cm lengths), cut and tied, then threaded the other way (the 110cm lengths)
I had to improvise on the legs of this scrog, it works, but could be better.
It sits about 10inches above the bucket lid. But next time around i'm going to make legs about 2" longer and that would be ideal i reckon!
