Hi @marcus611a I wanted to put together a little something I’ve learned since accidentally embracing Monstercropping. It is not a popular way to grow, and I truly understand why. It takes sooooo. fucking. long to Reveg a bud clone. Much longer than revegging a plant, well I think it does.
Over the last year I think I have improved in getting the most out of my little monsters, and while watching your journal, I think I may have some tips you might want to consider.
I didn’t post this in your journal coz I know some posters prefer to keep their journals about their own personal grow. Not me mind, I couldn’t give a fuck what people want to share in this journal. Pets, recipes anything goes in here
First I don’t have the experience of the good growers in here so what I’m saying could be viewed as 100% wrong. I just wanted to share what has worked for me.
As you can see with your plants their little arms are eager to get to the outside of the pot. Without training I find my plants arms can become quite spindly. This advice is about growing the type of plant you see as beautiful, so what I consider beautiful in a plant could differ to what you are trying to achieve. Thankfully there are hundreds of ways to skin a cat, not that anyone should be doing that. Skinning cats is just wrong. But if it was okay to skin a cat, this is the way I would do it:-
My goal is to achieve an even canopy. I think this is particularly difficult in little monsters because they want to grow up and out, without central coverage. That central coverage is what makes my heart sing. I realised I’d neglected training, so 4 days ago I decided I better get to it.
My goal was to fill these areas:-
So in essence what I’m trying to do is turn these branches back on themselves. The pink colour demonstrates where my growth is heading and the yellow demonstrates where I want it to train it to go.
In order to fill these spaces I loop my new growth back on itself and I secure it with a Carhook
, I really need to put a link to how @Carcass makes them in my signature. For me they changed the way I grow. Hopefully he will come and link you. They are these sticks with wire. I then create an actual U turn with my stalk.
This newest training pictured was done yesterday. I have been actively tweaking her since last Wednesday.
Here she is today, 4 days on.
So as you can see, the growth goal I am trying to achieve is slowly coming into effect. I think it could benefit you to perhaps better prepare your plant for your scrog net.
So there is my monstercrop advice…. Not that you even asked LOLLINGGGGGG!
Oh and first person to scroll straight past that absolute bible length wall of words and post TL;DR wins!
