I installed the screen today. LST is not my thing I don't guess. Lol! Train these babies to the screen.
Carefully remove the male if there is one when I switch to 12/12. Hoping for 3 females though
Screen is 7 inches above cooler and light is 16 inches above the screen

7 inches is awfull close for the screen jmo... i think 12 gives better access n options to cross over limbs when necesary. also found it difficult to trim under canopy due to jungle like growth in that limited a area. but to each his own.

Yeah I agree. Mine is at 12inchs too. This will keep the buds at the top. Otherwise you'll get a lot more vegetation above your screen.

loving all the comparing and recomendations everyone is making. good bantering keeps things interesting in a good way as long as someone doesnt turn it into a rant. as growers we all have different styles and beliefs. i find it interesting to hear of others experiences with whatever they choose to do. sometimes i run into someones discripton of whatever and it becomes an ahha! moment that makes the random thoughts come togeather into the whole i was searching for. does that make sense? any way, great job everyone!! im enjoying this... PEACE

oh n your welcome for the hankey i was just measuring n thinking i could not get my hands in a 6" low screen, much less with some pruners. may be why my preference for a larger area. have rather large hands jmo

And there is no reason really to cut off the excess.
IMO 12 inches is a waste of bud unless you want 3 ft tall plants.
I don't want em that tall. Oh well. To each their own.
We will get to see the varied results from the different methods and styles.
Comparisons and experiments help me to learn better.

Looking Great Minz!! The added lumens are gonna be a tremendous help as long as you can keep the temps down.
Gonna be some nice budz in there.. Keep up the good work and you will be a Happy Grower!!

Will this be the first time running a screen?

Glad to have you stop in.
Not sure if this is meant towards me. My second time running a screen. I think it is Minz first time with a screen.

oh, got it Blu, thanks bud. It's addicting, running screens. It's like the next level of the addiction of growing itself. Have fun with it!!!

agreed lbh i couldent wait till i could open up and see what i could pull or tuck i did run into some maintenance issues as i had a 4x4 screen in a 4x4 tent without any room to access the back. allowed it to get somewhat unruly.

I moved my screen lower like Blus, and this is my second SCROG.

It would be ideal to be able to walk completely around the screen. I'm not setup for that tho.
Maybe in the future somewhere

i even set up my aero unit on casters but was still such a bitch to get to the back. ill def do it again but without propper access to the scrog i will just wait untill i do. im working on that.
