Thanks....but it's the reflection they have been producing a bit of moisture through the leaves, I thought the same thing myself with the overpopulation so have been keeping a close watch for
any problems developing. What software did you use to magnify like that?

Here's the latest view of my first SCROG. This is actually the second (3rd,4th,and 5th) plant(s) under this screen. The original plant I was training under this screen died, one limb at a time. I'm still not sure what caused it's death........maybe it was just vegged too long?!? (6+months), I live in a hot climate and there is no way I was going to flower in the heat (I keep my thermo at 83) but by the time it cooled enough, my biggest plant was dead! Moved to the clone I'd taken from it previously and proceeded to veg it until 80% or so of the screen was full......but then I was given 3 more plants a week before i was ready to flip.....so the screen is a bit fuller than planned. I hope the yield is adequate. images attached are from 9/19 which was just after the death of my big plant and the promotion of the lil one under the screen, and 10/28 which is my most recent photo. The right most 25% of the screen or so is made up of the 3 plants I was given (abusive OG).

What factors are you guys using to decide whether or not to add a second layer and how far above the first to set it? I just flipped my first scrog into flower 12days ago and the shoots have shot up 7-10" above the screen. They were at 0-3.5" before the flip, wondering if i'm going to want a second layer or not. I have one built just in case.

I know that problem....I don't use another screen when I flip mine the screen is only 60% full and then I use that stretch period to fill up the rest of the screen.

I'm thinking at this point, if they get much taller I'll just install the second screen as a means of lateral support (hoping for big flowers) instead of a means of training.

Here is a suspended SCROG frame I built, this 5'x5' made out of strapping and masonry string (Less fibers but would love an strong alternative that doesn't lose ANY fibers if anyone knows any) using 3" holes drilled on top and bottom. 4 HSO 707 headbands just went in a few days ago.
On my first grow with this frame I originally attached it to the oscillating fan to bypass using a light mover and was able to achieve about a 3 inches of bud movement on both sides but my racheting strap eventually shit the bed. I decide this time to to attach it to the wall to see if it made a difference.

I think if I was to change anything with this design it would be to allow the top and bottom to have an adjustable height because I think I made them too far apart (Worked well for the headband though.).

Other than the price and the weight I like it. Actually the weight isn't a big deal to me just be careful hanging it because and heavy as fuck not cheap to replace....The heat sink is huge and their components I assume are quality....Meanwell and Cree 5Ws???.....curious though what exactly.
If you are handy with tools and wires though, I would check out this design out first, but even doing it yourself will run you $700-900 I think.

A good price on the Ledil Assembly

I've been considering trying them out for a while. Like all pre-made lighting they get a bad rap, but I still think they are one of the better companies out there. Was looking to do 3 of the 200's for a 4x2 grow. Thanks for your input.
