buenas vibras!

I've been meaning to tell you that your nepal and India trip pictures and log are the most inspiring thing that I've been fortunate to come across in a long time. One day soon my life will steer me to India, the land of the heart.

Just checkin in and updating on the scrog experiment. This was the first time for me but surprisingly it went pretty smooth, I believe they are about done stretching (at day 16) and it looks like everything lined up well.


This was 16ish days ago at the flip:

This was 4 days later!

It's crazy how much sense this makes, I mean I've always known, but seeing is believing. There is a future cola (or three!) in each and every hole. I'm hoping for 5 oz a plant minimum, with every bud in prime location I think that shouldn't be a huge issue.

I have another project that is a totally different style of growing I'm excited to share, just need some time to get over there with the camera.


Hope everyone is well!

Lookin' good bro....the scrog is really working for you! Its amazing how even and well-spaced it can make your canopy! Looks like you got one little annoying shoot in the back up higher than the rest...theres always the alfalfa sprout that wants to be different!

Haha great pic, If you look closer I actually tried to shape the canopy by leaving taller branches around the perimeter of the light and pinning them down more in the middle. Basically a shallow bowl shape under each light that connect at a higher point in the middle.

You can see it best in this picture. I've found I get light bleaching if I'm much closer than 18" so I tried to keep it as low as possible

I'm sold on the scrog in my tents!

Inverse parabola....sorry I'm a math nerd, but yea, its like a satellite dish, with a focus point (the HPS bulb), so every plant is equidistant from the focus. Good looking out! I agree, best way to maximize the tents, especially with well vegged plants!
 
nice work self! lookin outstanding.

you goin coco with drip next round? or you gonna continue aging your soil like fine wine? ;)
maybe some nice french oak barrels turned by naked nymphs twice a day.

just f'n around man, garden looks sick!
