Hello THCtalkers,
I recently completed my first ever grow and my crops are being cured at the moment. I had 10 plants in 1.2x1.2 tent finished in 7L air-pots. I can honestly say that I found ten plants in such a small space too complicated. As it was my firs grow I had no idea what to expect from the plants, how they develop, where the buds form and grow, etc. Ended up with different hight plants, too bushy for the space, pushing each other. Watering ten plants also is complicated with constant turning them around and rearranging. So my idea for the second grow is fewer but bigger plants.
There are 5 strains in curing jars at the moment: Big Buddha Blue Cheese, Original White Widow, Delicious Cheese Candy, Jacky White and Tangerine Dream. Did some tasting just to find out that Tangerine Dream from Barney's Farm is really outstanding. I like nutty/oily flavour and euphoric and energising effect. Since I have 3 feminised seeds of Tangerine Dream left I think to use them for my next grow plus one Holly Grail by Samsara 69.
Both tangerine dreams in my first grow were two tallest plants and they stretched like crazy at the start of flower. They also complicated plants because of the scattered bud spread over tall stems which basically means few big buds at the top and lots of popcorn ones. I assume that SCROG grow would be much more efficient. Therefore I have number of questions:
1. Would 4 plants finished in 14L air-pots be a good choice for 1.2x1.2 space?
2. How high should I setup the scrog net?
3. When should I switch to 12/12? (please note once again that Tangerine Dream is 70% sativa and tend to grow tall).
4. What size net holes would you recommend? (My idea is 2" or 2.2") Or should I make them bigger?
5. Anything else should I take into consideration?
Thanks
