Day 12
Same as before, however did some major lower canopy trimming. Cut almost everything beneath the screen off, however I left a little for a later date cuz I didn't want to over-cut and hurt the plants. I also rearranged the nodes to fill all of the spaces in the screen. I think I'm mostly going to leave them alone at this point and let them grow through the screen--it's been almost two weeks since they've been kicked into flowering. Obviously I'll still need to do SOME rearranging and tucking under but for the most part every space in the screen now has a node.
I'm really happy with the way this is turning out. At first I was worried about doing a SCROG because I've never done one before, but it's actually turning out to be easier than I originally thought. It's a lot of work getting to the plants in the back (as far as trimming), and I do have to spend a lot of time working on the screen, but it's not difficult; just tedious. However I believe it'll all be worth it in the end.
In the pics you'll notice that the front plant on the right didn't get a haircut like the rest of the plants. This is the Pineapple Express, and because she's not as developed as the others, I didn't want to cut more than 30% of her foliage right away.
Enjoy!
