Coloradokid Goes Brix In 2017

Sweet man they are right at that net point. I am going to build a scrog net and will do it basically the same way. Tying your own will make it easier at the end too because you can just run down the side and cut the strings. Then they will slip out unlike a net.

You can also string them closer or tighter depending on the strain nug width. I am going to hang my scrog net from the ceiling to make it easier to get around down bottom. I will put some rebar in the PVC to keep it weighed down and straight.

I like that ceiling idea for better workspace! I ended up putting screws every 4 inches so I have 4 inch squares and then when I tied the net I did the strings going one way and then went the other way and wieved the other set of strings through those to make the net nice and tight! I don't think I'll cut my plants out of it though because I will want to re use unless it is just such a pain to get them out at the end
 
I raised up 3 of the 4 plants on 2x4's so now everyone is at the net and the Skywalker is only about an inch taller than everyone now

Looking awesome Kid!
 
Looking great CK! Pretty even. That Skywalker might take up a little more room in the end due to it's vigorous growth rate. Good problem to have!

Thanks man, it is definitely a nice way to grow but definitely not the only one. Don't stop experimenting until you find what works best!

Thanks Ase, Ill take that problem any day haha. I was thinking maybe raise the 3 a bit more but also think I should just let them grow now. What are your thoughts on that?

I'd probably just let them grow a bit now and as they poke through the net start spreading them out.

They aren't trained against the net yet so moving them is easy still. In a few days if the skywalker is getting a lot bigger than the others then you can raise the pots again or just account for it being wider.

The thing with a net is you want to keep the canopy as even as possible so letting a corner be a lot taller than the others will be problematic. It may just have to occupy a few more squares of the net than the others as you train it horizontally.

Ok thanks, I feel like I've got a pretty good idea on what I'm doing just like to double check with someone of some experience with SCROGing every now and again lol. So I will just let these girls grow and then account for the Skywalker to be wider and taking up a bit more space because I will still want the canopy even. Like you said one corner being higher would be problematic...

Bru it is the best. Just means you focus on what needs to be done. If you weren't serious about it then you would buy a bag of soil for 2 bucks and grow some weed they made shirts from :rofl: that is how I am also. I make sure everything is perfect for me. That is why I struggled to get my pH right like 4/5 times yesterday morning :rofl::rofl:

Still just vegging along letting everyone grow vertical another inch or two before stretching them out again. I'll snag a pic of the girls tonight when they wake up!
 
Your girls are looking sexy CK! Can't wait to see them fill that canopy out!!
