suspended scrog

good idea.

I have never really had a problem with plants picking up the pvc frame, not that it isn't possible.

My net is hung from the ceiling. Makes it easier to get around underneath. If you grow big plants though they will definitely push it up. (though I don't imagine it would make a difference with legs, unless they were anchored). Weights on the corners works well enough.

here's some of the 48 gods and xmas kush.

moving day:

7 days on screens:

a random pick of a different rack (white lightning and mandala 1):

and two weeks in and ready to flip:

as you can see, there's still a lot of larf under the screens. i'm not rooting them (OR SELLING THEM!), but if anyone wants some clone stock, check my compost bin.

the frames were already bowing and cupping a little from how tight i stretched the nets, but there's been no issue with the screens lifting up. not so far anyway. even if they do, i think i'll just tie water bottle to the corners to pull them back down.

<fingers crossed>

I'm planning on doing this sometime this week, thanks for the great writeup.

2 and a half weeks into flower and still nothing lifting up on me.
actually that's not entirely true.
one of the corners picked up about 2 inches on me,
so i just cranked the rope ratchet up a couple of clicks.
no problem at all.

i'm really liking this 48 gods (nirvana ak-48 x god's gift).
just leggy enough for the trellises,
and a 10 days she's already stacking nicely.

My scrog was just pvc pipe and connectors, no glue or cement.

4'X8' 2k, 1 hps and 1 mh

Things got out of hand a little because of more stretch than anticipated...

 

[avant gardener]

7 weeks and still nothing has flown off into the ether.

had to ratchet them up maybe 4 inches to keep the strings taut, but that's about it.

 

[avant gardener]

the flower don't look too shabby either.

xmas kush:

white lightning:

white berry:

hashberry:
