Hey guys,

I am about to build a scrog for my 4x4 flower tent. I will be using air pots for this run.
I made a diagram. Please take a look and tell me if you see anything missing.

It is also going to be my first time using a scrog, if you guys have any tips, please share.

Drill pilot holes in the 1x1 so you don't split the wood when you screw in.
Good luck

Built mine very simply - wooden frame, string mesh. Got nearly 7Oz of one plant with it (bubble gum)
Also did some serious LST on it too.
Here's a pretty good article - https://www.growweedeasy.com/scrog-tutorial

That website is my reference for tutorials. Thanks for the good post.

What light were you using and in what space? Also do you have a journal?

Don't have a journal for this one, it was a few years ago.
Lights: 250W CFL blue for vegging
400W HPS dual spectrum for flowering.
Space was about 3ft w x 2ft d x 5ft h

Grown with Biobizz allmix organic soil & nutes

Pvc is cheaper than wood. Why use wood?

5 plants will work better for scrogging, ie another one bang in the middle and the rest as is.

How do? The point of the screen is to grow your plants horizontally how would adding another plant in the center be better?

Depends on your space. I used super-cropping, fimming & LST to get my 1 plant to fill a large area, no need for multiple plants.
