Joining in this grow journal. Curious (posted question in the first grow journal) what nutes from advanced, you used on the first scrog grow you did on here? Seemed to work well. I just purchased almost all of advanced nutrients stuff and was gonna play with them a bit to see which ones I like. So I'd like to know what you used to get a baseline of how to start. I'm new to advanced. Always used foxfarm. Thanks bud.

Unfortunately I'm not allowed to pm yet. So that sucks. But I got the grow, micro bloom from advanced. As well as voodoo juice, big bud, b52 and overdrive, and then I also got piranha, bud candy and flawless finish. What is the difference in sensitive bloom and the grow micro bloom base nutes?

Thanks for joining, it should be fun. I am gonna post pic tonight and flip light scrog not quite full but these girls stretch alot , grew 3 7 ft snowcaps outdoor a few years back, same cuts. 1000w did well in my first journal with a low yielder gods gift. Sno cap packs on some real weight, cant wait!

(3) 7ft snowcaps is what i mean to say last post. Lol

I will be sure to check your scrog out. Pvc, some self drilling screws does wonders lol, and net. I saw how to build one on here so just followed that idea. I am running mid 70s when light is off and mid 80s when on. Getting into fall now so temps should be great mid/ late flower

I am not sure of the difference i have always just used sensi , just start slow with the nutes, see what they can take, if tips burn dont freak out. Let em recover and hit them with the same next watering.( IF they are growing 1" or 2" a day they are loving it burnt tips or not)... I started getting alot of yellow early in first journal. I increased air flow, flushed . And put the nutes to em again. Make sure to flush well 3-5 days before harvest and you will be good

Do you guys that have scrogs already have your watering system set up? Mine was cheap and easy if anyone is interested in seeing pics

 

[Pat999]

Thanks for joining, scrog is a great training technique. Ive been hooked on it since i did my first one outdoor. Shit loads of tops and even canopys

 

[SCROG IT]

I will be doing an update tonight, along with pics of my watering system, i did not get around to it last night.

 

[Twox]

Subbed....I hate watering and I'm interested to see what your working with..

 

[SCROG IT]

Ok so the setup i have for watering is a simple rubbermaid tote , fountain pump, 4ft piece of food grade hose, 5/8 drip line, 1/4 drip line, Air pump with air stones and a timer I prefer not to use the timer unless i have to, if anything were to go wrong could possibly flood the tent out in my house.

So i ran the system to find out how long it takes to get run-off, so when i do use the timer i know just what i need and it shuts off since it is not a system that runs back into reservoir.

 

[SCROG IT]

The flexible food grade hose just runs out side vent of tent to fountain pump in resevoir. I have plans to buy bigger fountain pump so i can run the halo of soaker hose around the plant base and get a more even watering, this pump will not do the job with the restriction of the soaker hose. The pump is just a small harbor freight brand.

In the next week i will be cleaning all lower growth out from underneath the net. I flipped the light to 12/12 today so this will mark day 1 of flower tonight.
