OK newbie here. How is this for an idea to get around the access issue at the back for defol?
SCROG single plant in a square tent.
Lazy Susan table (big say 50cm or even larger for huge plants). Pot on top.
Two hoops, maybe floral hoops or even hula hoops. They must be slightly small than lazy susan.
They are mounted to the table around the plant, one above the other.
They are held up (like a cylinder) with pvc pipe or similar.
They form the SCROG frame.
You can weave twine in a square pattern (like a tennis raquet) across the top hoop.
For schwazzing/defol, just rotate the SCROG, along with the plant with the lazy susan.
I have not put much thought into how to build this yet. I am not the tradie type who knows the best way to do this sort of thing.
Next best way but much easier, is just to use a stand under the pot of course, to give a little room to work under.
I like the idea of a PVC jointed rectangular frame for this. Twine can be made very tight and much easier to remove from plants at harvest.
I have not tried this yet but want to use the schwazzing method in my next grow, having been inspired by Sensai.
My last grow was full of larf and I got rot too.
EDIT: A rectangular prism with square base would also work and much easier to cut to size with PVC tube. Hardware shops also sell joiners for these.

Buy a turntable and add a plywood base of appropriate size. LOL motorise and spin it around for equal light.
Buy PVC tube. Cut into lengths. Drill holes top and bottom.
Secure to hoops with zip ties.

Just finished the schwaz and tucked everything nicely into the scrog net.
