    Default Ideal height of shoots through scrog screen?

    Just wondering what the ideal/best/minimum height is?

    Ive kept them pretty short in one tent but in my other tent theyve kind of gone nuts and some of them are about 8" above the screen, im just into my 3rd week of 12/12

    This depends on the strain. Average it's is said to fill out 75-80% of your screen, then flip. Keep training for anything between two and three weeks depending on the stretch of the strain. For beginner scroggers, I'd recommend getting a good sturdy screen with about 1 inch by 1 inch grids. A good metal fence is good. And then a couple of inches above that main screen, you put some netting. This will help support the buds later on, and also give you a guide to train them. When they reach the top screen, retrain that branch, let it grow to the screen again, an retrain. It'll help keep track of what needs to be trained.

    Also I wouldn't say lolly pop them, but do a good trim on the bottom third of te plant a week before flip too. It'll help reduce popcorn buds
