Bloomin' In A Box

OK, so this morning I wanted to get my SCROG set up. Since I am only running 3 plants, the best way to maximize their yield in my space is (I think) a SCROG. Ultimately this will be a SoG with 9 small plants crowded in the space, but until I get a mother plant identified and get the cycle going, the SCROG will be what we use.

I made a cheap, semi-throw-away SCROG trellis. I went to Home Depot, got a 6 foot length of PVC, had the cutting center cut it into the lengths I needed - my dimensions are 33" wide, 24" deep, and 10" tall. Found all the connectors, connected as appropriate, then drilled holes every 2" along the perimeter of the frame and weaved braided nylon line to make the netting. Special note: I hate working with braided nylon line. The stuff starts to unravel, I can't pull the net as tight as I like it...sheesh. Nevertheless, I finished the whole project - running to the store, waiting in line, etc - in three hours. Cheap, easy, and will last a couple of grows, whic is all I'll need it to last. Here's the pics.

With the SCROG in place, I am aiming for 7.5 oz dried, or 2.5 oz a plant. I think that's pretty conservative, but it's my first time growing in The Box, so keeping the bar low as I get it dialed in.
