So with a screen, you usually veg your plants for some time without it. You let them grow several nodes, get 9-12" tall (or LST them), and then put a screen over the plant say 6-9" from the stalk. You fold the plant under the screen, and as it grows you take each new stem (or node) and put it into a different quadrant of the screen. The screen stops that stem from crowding over into the other space, so when you do this time after time, you get an even canopy filled with a lot of "top" colas.

If you want to see a good example of this, visit our "See what our customers are doing" thread and take a look at VerdantGreen's grow

Should be big enough. The only stems I ever saw over an inch thick were at the stock.
