20 years since last grow

Greetings from sunny so-cal. I got these clones from a friend on May 29 and am considering either an LST or SCROG. I started training them on the 16th and they have really taken to it. I have some galvanized tomato wire, its thick metal about 14 ga. with 4"x4" squares, and I'm a little concerned that this might burn the young shoots when in the sun for a few hours. Any experience with this stuff? Or should I just stick with the LST?

looks great and welcome

Welcome ... with the heat you guys have there now its a tough call .. why not try doing some of each ?

Yeah I am just wondering if the metal screen is the right material to use or should i find some other kind of netting.

I also just want to add that this site has been an inspiration for me to get back into cultivating.Its been so helpfull.
Thank you all

you can get some metal coated with a rubber material .. that shouldnt burn them

homw depot sells nylon netting pretty cheAPLY.
nice looking plantsis, I just have one question, why would anyone in their right mind give up such a great hobby for soo long?!?>!?!?1?

I know, this is so much fun. I can't believe it myself. I was movin around a lot, the carribean Hawaii and just never was able to commit to a grow, even in those locals. Although now im considering doing some indoor just so I can do it all year. At least for a few mothers.

Well I'll tell you what I gave up growing and smoking the stuff for about that long, until a buddy of mine showed me a plant he was growing in his basement. I really don't smoke too much anymore but I have always loved growing the stuff. Twenty years ago I got seeds from Amsterdam seeds. I think they were called Beatrice or something. well anyway it was good but not like the stuff nowadays. Goodluck
