Indoor Growing Scrog

[DOA]

Lookin' good! How many times have you used the 420 method, DOA? I know you have done it at least one time before.

4 or 5 now.

This is my exact thinking @KingRatt

Just saw you are a new member, Welcome! This is the best canna thread site on the internet period! Glad you found it!

Thats whats up! This will be cool, there have been alot of new growers coming to this thread, it will be nice for them to see it happen from another grower. You and @420autoflower take some slightly different approaches. It will show that not everything has to be exactly the same to get amazing results!!! Stoked!

Totally agree. I read 420's threads on Instagram and Reddit regularly, and it's interesting, and understandable I think, that some folks are doubtful. Someone suggested that he must be using growth hormones, etc. My guess is if more of us can replicate the master's technique, as DOA has already done multiple times, many more will give it a go. And by the way, 420 has started a new thread on Instagram that looks like it will be very helpful in its thoroughness.

( *Lotsa'* new growth overnight, center already filling in. Daily tasks will include keeping her tops down, they escape overnight and turn
toward the light. Stem massaging takes the upward curls away. Will have to pick up plant wire today to keep them tucked. )

I don’t always post mine in here but here is my second scrog 2 Nightowl Dogwhistle’s day 73 in 1 gallon pots

Beautiful. beautiful. And shows what really can be done with only 1 gallon pots. I will try it with our favorite medicine in Sungro Growers Gold 420 Potting Mix amended. Hand fertigate. BTW, nursery/plant pots almost always are actually "Trade gallons," *unless advertised as such.* For example, a 2 gallon pot is often only 1.5 gallons volume. Big difference. Same for larger sizes. As a retired nurseryman of 40 years, I used to explain this to people to avoid possible complaints later that I was ripping them off. Because "Gallon" is a standardized 128 ounces term, you may wonder how the plant industry gets away with what should be patently illegal for so long. Good question.. but nothing changes.

@Lil Dab you are using Coco correct? Not a soil medium? @yerunclebudsy the reason they are so big for the container size is because they are in coco/hydro! You wont get results like this with 1gal of soil, in fact a lot of this method is centered around hydroponics. You can emulate a lot of the techniques in soil, but you wont get anywhere near the results in soil. You can grow very large plants in small containers with coco compared to soil.

Yes exactly coco and automatic high frequency fertigations they get feed every hour while lights are on. I would not attempt this with soil when I grow in soil I don’t go below 5 gallon pot. You can get good comparable yields in soil but larger containers are needed

Yes, thanks. No, I am not looking for results like this. I want less work and time attending them. This will be an experiment in seeing how much I can get with ideal soil mix amended in 3 gallon fabric bags. With Osmocote Plus, hand watering, adjusting water nutes at times. My aim in this run is continue looking for the perfect cultivars for personal flower vaping effects. And with little attention other than shaping, watering, defol, etc. 2" metal screen scrog. Moving outside in June to finish. Just harvested from 6 Grodan Big Mamas. 3 with the 4" block on top, and 3 with seeds started directly into Mamas. No difference. Hand watered with oxygenated custom nutes once a day, sometimes every other day. Will never bother with stacking anything again. Mamas are only 8 bucks, so for me, why do anything else. They are a full two gallons. Once and done.

Beautiful plants Lil Dab! Do you re-use your coco? How many minutes of fertigation do you give them every hour?

Got the photoperiods(Dutch Passion Blue Zushi and SLIC) trained out and schwazzed, flipping to flower here in the next few days or so! These girls arent supposed to stretch much so thats why im filling the canopy a little more. Super excited for both of these strains!
