did you FIM or just top? I really want to have a good looking scrog this run and any info will be helpful.
i just realized, are you in sonoma?
dude, i recommend using overdrive by advanced nutrients to help bulk up your stuff. it says on the bottle that you can use last 2 weeks but i use it the last 4 weeks and get better results.
nope, you can try bioboost from canna. it is expensive but amazing. it is a godsend for organics
my friend was doing scrog style too, but it was a pain in the ass. so he did the same. took off the net and just staked all the colas up insteadWell I actually took the scrog off tonight. I have a ton of colas but so many are not alot taller than the scrog so I decided to remove it to allow deeper light. The main reason for the scrog was to make as many colas as possible, which I accomplished now I just want them to get taller! Which I think removing the scrog will accomplish, I know the scrog helps hold up the heavy colas up, but I believe I will stake the ones that lifted need up and just finish scrogless! Any feedback on me removing my scrog will be welcomed, ill snap a pic of it tomorrow.
Hello, plants are looking pretty good. I would definately go a little heavier on your nutrients containing nitrogen. They looked a little light which means your not quite to the optimal growth rate. Dont be afraid to stray away from the "normal" nutrient formulas as every strain will have different needs. One reason you should try to grow the same strain at once, but you gotta find the right strain.
As for cutting your scrog to let the colas get taller, the growth period of flowering is only the first 2.5 - 3 weeks. I've heard usually 18-19 days. So if you are already past that point in the flowering phase, they are not getting much taller till you cut em. They now think its the end of summer and they are going to focus all their energy on those flowers. They think winter is coming so they ramp up their growth towards reproducing....unpollinated flowers. Any time I used a scrog and it started getting pushed up, i adjusted is because as you get into the final weeks with all those colas, they start to get heavy on the ends and fall over. But hopefully they'll all help keep each other up.
