nNice! Yes about trimming off everything below the net. Leave the nodes that will make the net and lop off the rest leaving plenty to move topward. Here's one of mine from the top"HAPPY 4th of July !!!" Hope you're all having a great day !
So here's a little update for the Do-Si-Dos SCROG. Two days ago, I did a pretty major defol on her. I cleaned up under the net quite a bit; but not completely. I can get to most stuff under the net fairly easy; but the right back corner is kind of a PITA to get to. After trimming her up some I felt she was still too small to start flower. But her branches are so stiff & springy it's getting tough to push them under the net. I should have put taller legs on my SCROG. 1st SCROG so I have an excuse.... Ha Ha. As you can see in some of the pics the branches are pushing the net up 4" - 6" because they are so rigid. Could use the branches for Leaf Springs on a car they are so stiff. Still trying to tuck the outer edges as much as possible while waiting on the center to grow up some. I've gone up on my MC equivalent to 5 gr. per gal. with Terpinator added at this point.
In case you're wondering about the MC Equivalent stuff, here's what I'm using as my nute mix.
1) Mono silicic acid Silica : 14.945 gr.
2) Cal Mag : 1.375 gr.
3) Nitrogen : 3.701 gr.
4) Terpinator : 3.208 gr.
5) Mega Crop : 3.087 gr.
This is per gal & I mix 10 gallons at a time to feed all 10 plants.
This is the equivalent to using 5 gr. of MC straight from the bag. Just using different ratio's of the ingredients.
So here's some pics.
Anyone got any pics of what their plants look like under the net after you did a defol ? I'm really not sure what all to clean up. Not sure if I should remove everything that doesn't make it to the top by time I go 12/12 or what. Any pics would be very nice to see. Thanks Guys !
And from the side on day one of flip.
Nothing will really get light down there so off everything goes leaving plenty to go up. Sorry nothing from below. I'm a little messed up in the body so I don't trim as much as I would like, but that's the way I like to do it for the best bud.
