Scrog tips tricks anyone?

Ok so this is my first time trying to grow with a screen im not really sure how to tuck or when the screen is full enough to flower any advice or ideas . thanks


I have 3 plants under the screen

Looks good. I think just keep tucking them further and further out. Let a branch grow through a fe inches then tuck it under and over to the next slot further out. Fill your screen until it's mostly full.

What size space, strains and lights are you running?

I am using about a 4x4-1/2 x6ft tall closet space keep in mind that the ceiling is angled in the back.

I have three plants total I got a 707 headband in a 5 gallon bucket all the way to the right and I have a big buddah cheese in a 7 gallon plastic pot in the middle and on the left side I have a runt plant of some kind of cheese so I was told from outdoor harvest someone grew it around a few and it ended up being a runt but now it seems to be catching up to the other plants an has grown up to the screen.


As far as lights go I started them with 370w of cfl/t12 I had a few big 55w cfls and above them I had a t12 40x2 fixture hanging the cfls they carry at typical local stores of the bigger size are usually 2700k that would be the only drawback I guess and lumen output per watt compared to hid. The t12 fixture had 6500k bulbs in it so all in all the spectrum kinda evened itself out. I vegged like this for a month and a half.

Then I came across someone who had a 400w grow light that supposedly was for both mh/hps bulbs and they only wanted 50$ I thought how could anyone refused a deal like that so I bought it. Anyways I ended up finding out the ballast was for hps only even though it came with 2 bulbs.

So now I have had a 400w hps over them and 2 55w cfls on the sides and the t12 fixture so im at almost 600w total of lights I had been using the bulb that came with the light a ceramalux since I got the hps which id say been about a half of month. I ordered a new hps philps bulb last week ended up being old and burnt out I get a new replacement one this week and so far seems like the ballast has been running alil cooler and the grow over all is better on the plants.


The big buddah cheese and the headband came from a real seedbank the other plant a cheese runt was from someones outdoors.

So id would have to say the plants have been under the screen for about a month at the end of dec will be a month.
