still getting there. 2 weeks after flipping. I was expecting more rapid growth to be honest. Would the main part of the stretch be delayed due to me doing a 24/7 veg or by cold temps (6 to 8 C at times) esp at lights off?

I'm a scrogger...but unlike most (all??) here, outdoor, not indoor. See pics. First timer. About 7'x2' space on deck in SF bay area, west facing. Foggy summers. Planted 12 targetting 6 fems (about right for space), got 12 fems, never had the heart to thin. Got some botrytis gray mold, cleaned and routinely re-cleaned now with apple cider vinegar. Buds all fine so far. Is the canopy too dense?? Should I thin, and if so, how aggressively? I am about to treat with seranade as a preventative re: risk of bud rot. I expect more fog off and on over the next 8-10 weeks! BIggest mistake I believe: interlacing branches through scrog twine, and interlacing branches across each other. Chafing=>rubbed off bark=>mold. Thanks scroggers for any input. -zinc

I'm getting ready to build a scrog for my 4x4 tent. I see most people go with pvc and string. What spacing should I have my strings run? 4"x4" individual squares?

Hi mate,
Looking good. Is there no way you can bring the lights up temps a bit.? 6 - 8 is a bit on the chilly side. What temps is lights on?
My lights off are about 16-18 and on 24-26 or so. I run a desiccant dehumidifier which blows out warm air, so it doubles up as a heater for me. Works great
Unfortunately I live in a cool spot and my grow space is in an uninsulated detached garage. Outside temps at that time of the year can be 0C, sometimes a tad lower over night. Lights on was a struggle to see even 16C during the day.
The weather has warmed up a bit and I'm now seeing canopy temps at 21-22c.(lights on) Lows around 11-13c.(lights off)

I'm running a dehumidifier as well, just a cheap one, seems to work well in the small space.
